The Classic Absolute Zero is NHT's fourth generation of mini-monitors. In this latest version, we managed to extend bass and improve horizontal dispersion while maintaining the open and natural midrange for which all Zero models are known. The Absolute Zero is a great choice for stereo, distributed audio and home theater systems. The Classic Absolute Zero is available in beautiful black or white gloss hand-rubbed painted finishes and are sold as singles.
The Classic Absolute Zero is an acoustic suspension design (not ported or vented). The Classic Absolute Zero uses a long-throw 5.25 polypropylene cone midrange/woofer. The woofer frame was designed entirely in-house using F.E.A. (Finite Element Analysis) and is made using a proprietary BMC (bulk moulding compound) frame that has high strength and low resonance like a cast magnesium alloy part but has the cost of less expensive plastic frames.
The Zero uses a very sophisticated 1 aluminum dome tweeter in a tiny frame that features a very small, yet powerful neodymium magnet. This allows us to position the tweeter and midrange drivers as close together as possible got very even on and off axis response.
Lastly we dress the Absolute Zeros parts in a beautiful, curvaceous little cabinet made of very dense MDF (medium density fiberboard) material. It is extensively braced and cut to amazing precision by NHT's manufacturing partners in CNC lathes. It gets 7 layers of high gloss black or white paint, hand polished between each coat.
What all this means is a lot of engineering and thought went into the Absolute Zero to insure it's best of class performance includes tighter, deeper bass and wonderfully open mids and crystal clear highs from a broad seating area.
