Guess I'll have to change my future plans as far as new speakers are concerned. :frowning:
Here's the press release from NHT a.k.a. Now Hear This:
Looks like their website is still up for the time being: nhthifi.com
They were one of three companies I had planned on buying from for my next HT system. Their Classic 3 bookshelf made it onto the cover of The Absolute Sound last year, quite an accomplishment for a speaker at that price point.
NHT has been one of those fun/quirky manufacturers since 1986 but at the same time always tried to give the customer quality & innovative gear for not much money, a very rare combination these days (a couple years ago the front page of their site featured a guy yodeling for about ten seconds on a mountain top before opening the rest of the page ).
I am afraid we will be seeing more and more respected audio manufacturers slipping away from us in the coming years. :frowning:
Audio companies have been dropping like flies before this economic meltdown started, so no telling what's in store for us now.
