VS-1.
Thank you for your purchase of the NHT VS-1.2a Audio / Video Satellite Loudspeaker. Please take a few minutes to read through this Owner’s Manual prior to installing your new speaker. The information provided will help you to obtain maximum performance from your audio system. If you have questions or need assistance at any time during the installation or operation of your new speaker, please call your NHT dealer or our Toll Free Customer Hotline at: 1-800-NHT-9993 Please retain the VS-1.
fig. 2 fig. 1 When used as front or rear satellite speakers, the VS-1.2a’s should be arranged as symmetrically as possible.The speakers should be slightly toed-in and the drivers should face the listening area without obstruction from furniture. If possible, arrange the speakers so that the distance between the listener and the center or the speaker plane is about 1.5 times the distance between the two speakers (fig. 3). This configuration puts the listener in the center of the stereo image. For 5.
Whenever an object is affixed to a wall, you must take special care to mount it securely, to prevent it from falling and causing possible injury. THE VS-1.2a MOUNTING BRACKET MUST BE ATTACHED TO STUDS, AS DRYWALL (SHEETROCK) ALONE CANNOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE SUPPORT. Make sure that the mounting bracket will not interfere with electrical wiring, plumbing, etc. IF YOU ARE UNSURE ABOUT THE INSTALLATION OF THIS MOUNTING BRACKET, CONSULT A PROFESSIONAL CONTRACTOR.
fig. 6 fig. 7 exact 16” spacing. There are three offset “keyholes,” but only one keyhole will be correct for your installation (see Fig. 7). When mounting the VS-1.2a vertically, use the middle keyhole on each bracket, and make sure that the brackets are installed so that the narrow section of each keyhole faces the direction that will be “up” once the speaker is on the wall. When mounting the VS-1.
2- Use five VS-1.2a’s (front left, center and right, rear left and right) and a separate powered subwoofer (NHT SubOne or SubTwo) for the low frequency effects channel. For a no-holds-barred home theater system starting with either of the above configurations, powered subwoofers may be employed on any or all five channels to provide balanced bass and increased impact.
