NHT M6 w/ Ribbon Tweets, The Dual 12 Inch Subs Are SOLD

[Dave R]

I have a couple of pairs of NHT M6 speakers. One pair has been modified to accommodate the Aurum Cantus G2 ribbon tweeter. The cabinets aren't perfect, but could be refinished relatively easily. The crossovers in these have upgraded components, primarily polystyrene and poly-carbonate caps. The M6 sounds fantastic in stock form, these are better.

For subs I have a pair of Sub 2i with two 12 inch drivers in each. The plate amps have been removed (they started misbehaving), I'm using a Crown XLS-1502 which does a fantastic job of powering these. The controller that comes with the subs works with the Crown amp with two resistors lifted from the circuit board to prevent DC from being put on the signal line to the amplifier. The plate amps in the subs were turned on by a DC voltage on the input signals.  NHT subs have a reputation for being very musical.  They may not have the bone crushing power of today's high power subs, but for music they're hard to beat.

As you may know, the T6, which is an M6 on a B6 was Stereophile A rated with a bass caveat - the 3dB down point was 27 Hz instead of 20. With the EQ built into the controller for the Sub 2i I regularly measured 20 Hz out of them.  The NHT manual says the -3dB point is 21 Hz.

I have the grills for the subs.  I have one pair of good condition grills for the M6 and some not so good condition.  We can discuss the M6 grills if you're interested.

My new project speakers are out getting painted so these are set up and ready for an audition.  I have other NHT speakers that I'll post separately.

This is an incredible deal at $1,500 for all four speakers and the Sub 2i controller.  I'll throw in the Crown XLS1502 for the subs for an additional $300.  I don't think you'd be able to find better sound and performance at anywhere near the price.
