The timing is fine: this is an older, discontinued design, so value depends more on condition and completeness than on chasing the latest model. At €750, it lands around fair-to-slightly-strong versus the long-run used average of about €700 (roughly $760 in the source data, converted to EUR), with observed used prices ranging from about €510 to €1,180; it is not a bargain-bin score, but it is also not ambitious if the pair is truly excellent.
What makes it worth a look is the VT-2’s reputation as a serious full-range tower with the kind of scale, bass authority, and smooth, “big” presentation that still appeals to classic hi-fi buyers. If these are clean, original, and working properly, €750 is a reasonable buy for someone who wants a well-regarded vintage floorstander rather than a modern budget replacement. The main buyer check is practical: make sure both speakers are intact, all drivers are original and healthy, and the cabinets haven’t suffered water or veneer damage.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
NHT, or Now Hear This, emerged in 1986 from the innovative minds of co-founders Chris Byrne and Ken Kantor, an MIT graduate renowned for inventing the AR Magic Speaker. Based in the United States, initially on the East Coast before relocating to Benicia, California, the brand quickly carved a niche with its psychoacoustically informed approach to loudspeaker design. After a self-imposed hiatus in 2009 amid industry shifts, NHT reemerged under employee ownership, free from corporate intermediaries, reaffirming its commitment to direct-to-consumer evolution.
The company's product focus remains sharply on loudspeakers, particularly acoustic suspension models that prioritize musicality, tight response, and application-specific performance over rigid price tiers. Iconic lines like the SuperZero mini-monitor exemplify this, delivering transparent midrange and balanced highs in compact bookshelf formats. NHT eschews diversification into amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables, instead channeling expertise into patented technologies that optimize sound for real-world listening environments.
NHT holds a respected mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, celebrated for high-value performance that punches above its weight and influences competitors. Its vintage models attract collectors, while current offerings appeal to discerning buyers seeking uncompromised acoustics without high-end premiums. Employee-owned and independent, NHT embodies boutique reliability for the knowledgeable audiophile prioritizing substance over hype.
