For those with larger rooms who prefer the placement simplicity and sound of
a full frequency point-source speaker, the NHT offers the T6 Tower system.
The T6 combines the Evolution M6 monitor with its own sonically and stylisically
matched powered subwoofer, the Evolution B6 bass module. This tower configuration
employs four 12" woofer drivers, combining high aesthetic value and full
range response -- with output levels required to fill larger spaces -- in one
package.
The T6 also offers precise sonic imaging through a re-engineering of NHT's signature
technology, Focused Image Geometry. In earlier models, NHT employed this technology
structurally, using an angled front baffle to increase the ratio of direct to
reflected sound by focusing the musical information toward the listener and
improving midrange response. The T6 accomplishes a similar effect by pointing
the crossover null at the sidewalls which reduces reflections and provides a
wide, three-dimensional sound stage and startling detail.
Sold as a mirror-image pair, B6 modules can be configured to direct bass either
outward -- best for home theater uses when televisions or entertainment cabinets
are between the towers -- or inward, which can help reinforce bass response.
Each B6 bass module contains two of the same high-quality 12"acoustic suspension
woofer as other Evolution subwoofers, for a total of four bass drivers per tower
system. Generating adequate bass response in large areas can cause significant
heat build up in the woofer. The Evolution woofer features a massive motor structure
and an aluminum cone attached to a large aluminum former, which together act
as a heat sink to disperse excess energy before heat-generated impedance can
increase, which in turn keeps system distortion low, even with high-demand material.
Like the T5, the Evolution T6 tower features a polycarbonate buttress to provide
the B6 with a solid mounting platform for the M6 satellite, and includes all
the necessary mounting hardware. It also offers built-in wire management that
allows the entire tower to connect to the amplifier and crossover from simple
near-the-floor connectors located at the back of each B6 woofer module.
Every T6 Tower system comes with two Evolution A1 Amplifiers and an X1 Active
Crossover to power and control the B6 subwoofers. A set of solid aluminum stabilizer
bars for the bottom of the B6 modules are also included in every T6 package.
Modern and graceful in appearance, the T6 is a truly high performance loudspeaker
system capable of great finesse and detail while offering dynamic range that
can achieve the sound pressure levels of a live performance. With its level
of innovation and sonic capabilities, the NHT Evolution T6 may just be the most
advanced tower system ever offered.
