I think it's because NHT is going kerplunk....?!!
Yep, they're the W18 that NHT uses in their bookshelves.

As you can see by the "W18E/TV-NHT" on the motor.

Great deal on these, and I bet you could debuck them just like any other driver.

LOL at the "less air noise because no phase plug" stipulation though :D

If I'm not mistaken I believe you can get the whole cabinet, with woofer, box and tweeter for the same price on one of the other deals, though...

How do you purchase the bookshelf speakers?
If you scroll all the way to the end, he has these ordering instructions.
I emailed him about 2-3 hrs ago to find out if they are black or a different cabinet color. I was also looking around and found that these were $4500 msrp with the XDA processor / amp. :eek:

Here's a few links with some info on them.

Ordering instructions

Please read and follow ALL of the instructions below. If you skip a step, it is very likely I will ignore your e-mail.


We do not do "quotations". If you want the drivers, you pay the shipping, which is at our cost.


1) Check the spreadsheet linked at the top of this page to determine if we have enough quantity of the parts that you need.


2) You Paypal $10 to me at jhidley at Comcast dot net. This is a nonrefundable fee that goes towards your order. I have been forced to add this step due to the large number of people that ignore the "no shipping quotation" policy from above. If you want to estimate the shipping charges yourself, go to the UPS website. All drivers are shipped from Benicia CA, 94510. The weights of all drivers are listed in the spreadsheet at the top of this page. Add up your drivers and add about 10% for packaging materials. Do not exceed 30lbs per package.


3) E-mail me your order to jhidley at Comcast dot net. The e-mail must include the following:


part numbers


exact quantities


prices


your COMPLETE address, and whether the address is commercial or residential


3) Orders outside of the US must include a daytime phone number. All orders must include a postal code.


4) We will pack the order, weigh it and give you a final price with shipping with your $10 fee from step #2 removed.


5) You send payment via Paypal to jhidley at comcast dot net. Once your Paypal payment clears, we ship the order and send you the tracking number.

peace...

THe crossover looks pretty easy if you had some breakboards to solder them on. The cabinets looks sexy and can't sound too bad, I just wish shipping wasn't such a ***** or I'd have two already.

NHT has lost money each year for the past 5 years or so, and with the economic bottom we're in now, small companies as such just can't make it.

Now, this is a GREAT deal per driver price. Problem is, if anyone plans on debuking a pair for car audio use, the savings will be off set by the higher price needed to pay for a high performace tweeter or using a large format tweeter. A good eq will be needed as well.

Damn, I must not have scrolled all the way to the bottom. Thanks.

They're complete except for crossovers. Not to shabby, and looks like a pretty nice cabinet.


I've never built my own crossover before, but maybe i'd have to give it a shot. :)
Yep, and Jack said the cabinets were made in a dark gray color which basically looks black.

He might also be putting together a DIY M6 kit that resembles the VR-3/VC-3speakers.
This would include all hardware minus the cabinet, no word on a price yet.

peace...
