Strength:

Play hard, sound great, what more is there! Wall mountable as surrounds.

Weakness:

Nope, can''t think of any.

Great center when matched with VT-2''s. I doubled them up for even greater dialog with films.

Similar Products Used:

B&W HTM, Solids, Klipsch, JBL and old day Pioneer in the 70''s.

Strength:

Excellent Punch without harshness

Weakness:

None

Matched up with SuperOnes front and rear this is an ideal sonic match. I listened to the smaller center channel and it really called attention to itself on dialog which sounded too centered and weak. Highly recommended and worth the extra $$.

Strength:

Strength with detail

Weakness:

typical center or surround speaker, no low end, need full tower speaker or sub

Downgrading my Martin Logan 5.1 HT audio/video system to a stereo in the frontroom; I bought 3 of these fine speakers to match my NHT VT-2 speakers for a smaller yet still fun 5.1 HT audio/video system in my family room with a Sony 42 inch Plasma HDTV, Proscan HDTV receiver (need a Sony), Aragon 8008-X3 3 channel amp, Krell 300i integrated amp (for SACD stereo or 2 main speakers), Theta Casa Nova, & Sony 9000ES CD/DVD/SACD transport. The Martin Logan system, when it was a HT, gave better detail & purity with the Logos center, but the Scripts were always weak with limited soundstage. The NHT VS2A on the other hand, give a match timber to the VT-2 mains with more presence & soundstage. I find that I can sit anywhere on the sofa & enjoy a DVD with the NHT system, while the Martin Logan speakers I always had to have the sweet spot. I agree with NHT theory completely: that all tweeters & mid-ranges should match to give a balance tonality & presence while letting the main speakers take the mid lows & the sub of coarse the extreme lows. A great value & of coarse one could buy better but at what price?

Strength:

Works perfect with my Definitive BP8s. Lets the Nakamichi CA1,PA1 come through with relistic voice and effects.

Weakness:

Wish it went down to 45khz

I was using a cheap center from Polk,purchased from Cicuit(cheap)City.I guess there is no comparison. Voicing,sound effects,music takes on a new vividness and realism. Great purchase on my part considering the price I paid. I give it an overall **** rating cause I,ve heared better, but for alot more.

I am using this speaker for my center channel and surround speakers. A perfect match with my NHT VT2 fronts. Crisp, clear sound for vocals and speech; excellent bass for surround effects. Highly recommended!

My system is a Yamaha2095 with a VS2A center channel, 2Superones as rear channeland a set of Pioneers for front(which are going to be changed soon).
I used to have the Bose VCS10 before and only recently got rid of the bose and
bought the VS2A as my center channel speaker.
Let me tell you this, there is no comparision between the NHT VS2A and the bose
VCS10. The Bose was cheap sounding and hollow and I never liked it better than
the TV speakers themselves. The NHT VS2A is totally different league. When I connected the VS2A(paid $425 plus shipping)I was just really pleased with the sound. The sound was clear and the base was right. I think this speaker is in a class by itself and I am really pleased at owning this. Center channel is the most important speaker in your home entertainment system on par with the receiver, why compromise? Undoubtedly 5 stars to this superb speaker from NHT.
