Product Description

NHT speakers are designed to deliver refined, musical sound from attractive and affordable packages. NHT efforts are guided by the study of human hearing and are optimized for real-world use. Every NHT loudspeaker undergoes rigorous testing and quality control at the factory to ensure you years of listening pleasure. The VT-2, a technological relative of NHT's flagship Model 3.3, represents the pinnacle of NHT's home theater design philosophy. Conceived as a solution for high-performance multi-use home entertainment systems, the VT-2 was designed to provide state-of-the-art reproduction of recorded music and video soundtracks. Incorporating innovative features such as NHT's exclusive Audio / Video Switch and Coherent Array design, the VT-2 is optimized for both audiophile and video performance and is the perfect addition to surround systems incorporating Dolby Digital or Pro-Logic technologies. The VT-2 Towers employ the identical midrange and high frequency drivers as the companion VS-2 Audio / Video Satellite, which is recommeded for use as center and surround speakers to provide matched timbre in all five channels. Inside the VT-2 are two separate chambers. The midrange and high frequency drivers are housed in a sealed sub-enclosure and located on a narrow front baffle. The 10-inch long-throw subwoofer is housed in a separate vented enclosure and is mounted on the side of the cabinet for consistent bass loading.

Worth The Money.......2003-12-02

I have owned the VT-2's for four years and still have not heard any speaker anywere near the same price perform as well. Where most misinterpert the sound of this speaker is in its totally neutral sound. If you have a poor source the NHT VT-2 will let you know in spades. Likewise if you have mid to top line equipment you can approach near audiophile quality sound for a fraction of the price. It's not Wilson Puppy analog type sound, but for about 98% of the listners out there they would be hard pressed to "hear" the difference at normal volumes. I have seen these speakers sell used in the $500.00 to $750.00 range usally due to the sellers dislike of the sound based on inferior amplification equipment being used. Mid' are sharp, highs are crystal clear, and the bottom end is good, unbelievable if bi-amped. These speakers also excell as a good base for a home theater, and you can shake the windows if you so choose if you power the subs. If you can find them, buy them, you won't be disappointed.

System configeration: Shearwood Newcastle 9080R-Pre-amp, Sherbourn 5/1500A Amp, Adcom GFA555 Subs, MIT HT4S Main speaker cables, Sony SADC/DVD NHT VT2 Fronts Center, Klipsch CF2's for the rear

Great Stuff.......2000-01-28

I've had the VT2/VT2center/HDP2 surrounds for a year now I assure you they are worth the price if you have it! Mine are connected to a Sony ES receiver 120W/channel and I have biamped the subs on the VT2s using NHTs sub amplifier. These bad boys require serious power to drive them. Once you get a lot of clean amps into them they sound fantastic. I would also warn you that these are acurate speakers. If you have low quality source components you will hear every hiss. If you have a great system you'll hear every whisper!

Nice speakers shame about the price.......1999-12-10

These are top notch speakers and it is good to see that amazon are improving their audio section ( about time). But I am upset at the cost. Amazons Dvds are very cheap and the reviews are excellent. Here the speakers are not discounted enough and the reviews are lacking.5 stars for the speaker/ 2 stars for the almost list price

Way Too Much!.......1999-12-03

Im not sure if I am the only one who agrees to this. I admit, I am "in" to stereos, and anything that can make them louder and hit harder while still keeping that crystal clarity that I find so hard to acheive. And I am a firm beleiver in the phrase 'you get what you pay for.' But come on, unless you just happen to have $ that you can just go out and blow on a set of speakers, isn't the price a little ridiculous?

Amazon.com Review

Why be bothered by the uncertainty of cassette tapes or the expense of voicemail services when you can get the reliability of digital recording in a compact, easy-to-use answering machine featuring call screening and remote operation? The Casio PhoneMate TA-105, with all-digital recording technology, brings simplicity and security to message management.

The TA-105 is easy to set up and operate. When you have a new message, the TA-105's bright red indicator light flashes quickly. With a touch of the big, blue Play/Pause button, the TA-105's synthesized voice announces the number of total and new messages and plays back the new ones, with the time and day stamp announced for each. Press the Play/Pause button again to listen to saved messages, too. You can skip or erase any message during play, or you can erase all messages at once. Don't worry about accidental erasure during a power failure; the TA-105's battery back-up will save your greeting, messages, and programmed settings.

For added convenience, the TA-105 will help you screen your calls--you can listen to incoming messages through the speaker and pick up the phone or extension if you'd like to take the call.

We tested the TA-105's recording capacity, and it successfully met its rating of 18 minutes in total recording time and five minutes maximum for a single message. The sound quality is good and, unlike some comparable machines, plays at a volume loud enough to be heard over competing home or office noise.

Remote operation is possible from nearly any touchtone or cellular phone, or even from a rotary phone if you use the optional touchtone dialer accessory available from the manufacturer. Follow the voice prompts for instructions, or just hang up, and your new messages will automatically be saved. And, with the toll-saver setting, the TA-105 allows you to avoid long distance charges by letting you know if new messages are waiting before it answers.

Setup and programming are simple; we successfully recorded a personal greeting without consulting the user manual. Additional programming, including setting the day/time stamp, is just a two- or three-step process, with guidance provided by recorded voice prompts.

Overall, we think the TA-105 provides quick and uncomplicated message management and would be a smart addition to any home or office with a small to medium call volume.

Pros:

Instant access to greetings and messages
Easy setup and operation
Call screening ability

Cons:

No message repeat function
Can't choose or change the remote access code

Drops callers. Battery backup doesn't work.......2006-09-07

This machine never worked reliably. It occasionally would cut off callers in the middle of their message. Also the battery backup does not work.

CasioTA105.......2004-01-19

Got this machine for free from a yard sale...Works fine but I don't know how to individually erase messages because it didn't come with an operators manual so....I'll try Casios tech # that I got from here unless someone just wants to give me the big ole secret here....otherwise I have to wait for one in the mail....is there a pdf version available?

Smart people read the manual !.......2003-05-22

Ok, these "user's review" have their share of dummies, but some of the reviews about this great little answering machine top them all ! Beware: don't believe eveything you read !

This Casio of mine has been working perfectly for 2 years now: electrical burn-outs are no problem: the 9 volt battery takes care of the outgoing message and all of the recorded messages.

You CAN erase each message individually, and skip to the next one, without being forced to listen to is entirety. It does everything it claims in the manual, and you would know that if you'd READ THE MANUAL !

Works great ! Buy it if you cand find one !

Basic phone answering with simple controls.......2002-03-30

I bought mine because it had the fewest buttons with the most obvious functions. It's for my technophobic father-in-law who won't touch a PC and can't operate most of the functions of his TV's remote control. This is the best user interface I have seen for such people. They really put some thought into it. They didn't just put up a group of identical, symetrically-arranged buttons whose labels you have to read to know which to press. I bought mine at Goodwill, so it came without a user's manual. But it was obvious enough how to use it, and the stickers on the back provided enough additional information to ease setting up the outgoing message and correct day and time.

I thank Casio for their attention to the user interface. More companies should do likewise.

The single problem I have had is that the VOX threshhold is a bit too high. Some calls get cut off after 10 seconds (all mine from my work phone) while most of them can go on - presumably up to the documented 5 minute limit.

Great Little Answering Machine.......2001-08-08

Simple, basic, easy to set up and use, reliable. A very good value for the price.

Horrible pics - bad software .......2005-02-26

Bad, bad, bad... every pic is out of focus. The camera doesn't remember settings when you shut it off. If you set the camera for auto flash and high quality pics - when you shut it off and turn it off - THE SETTINGS ARE GONE! That, in and of itself is not the end of the world... but the fact that this thing can't take a decent picture is the reason this baby is going back!

Don't buy it.......2005-02-19

Don't waste your time or money on this junk. Slow, cumbersome and lousy pictures. Buy a used name brand camera instead.

WOW.......2005-02-03

Im very impressed..who would have thought I would get this quality in a camera for under 40.00...I will upload sample pictures when we take them..But i have to say the ordering and shipping went very fast..then I checked out the camera when it came..and the pictures look great. Very very satisified. Would definatley recommend this camera to everyone.

Beautiful watch.......2007-04-11

I wanted to buy an inexpensive watch but couldn't stand any plastic or cheap material. This watch is ideal for that purpose. It is pretty and all metal. However I find the hands do not stand out very clearly from the wathc face because of their colors. It would be nice if they use lighter color for the two watch hands. But it's not such a big deal. After a few weeks, I'm getting used to the new look of my watch now!

Fabulous watch! .......2006-11-04

This watch is ALL stainless steel. If you're tired of watches with a plastic case where the silver paint wears off and the case breaks under normal wear, this may be the watch for you. It is a little heavy but to be expected from a solid steel case. It has the feel of real quality. The alarm could be a little louder but the sound has to make it through all that steel. I owned the plastic version of this watch; the point where the watchband attaches broke within two years (so much for a watch with a 10 year battery). Note that this watch is 100 meter water resistant not 50; also this is a Casio EFA110D not an EFA11-D (both very good things). The seller JUSTCALCULATORS was excellent. I can't say enough good things about this watch. I am very pleased with the purchase.

good value / reception.......2007-07-30

this is my 2nd one I purchased. One for my primary residence and one for summer home. Phone works great. no complaints and good reception.

The perfect phone.......2007-02-12

We have had this phone for 18 months. The sound is great the callers can hear us and we can hear our callers. The previous people that said the sound was lousy must not know how to set the volumn or they had faulty phones. We have gone downstairs and outside,we have an acre and can easliy roam most of the yard while talking. Noone has said they can not hear us. Even my 97 year old mother in law can be heard and better yet she can hear the callers with this phone. The speaker phone is great and I have even used it with a headset without issue. The ring tone is loud enough to hear it ringing 3 rooms away. I like the different ring tones. We have a different ring for my family and friemds so we know who is ringing by the melody or ring. I love the way you can get the messages from the handset and do not have to stand by the main unit. This phone is the greatest. I am about to purchase two more. One for our other line and one for my parents. 10 stars for this phone

Overall great phone and answering machine.......2007-01-11

I bought this phone to replace an older Panasonic cordless that I had and it works great! It has a lot of great functions (like a voice changer and visual cue when the phone is ringing, in case you want to turn the ringer off), and the sound is clearer than my old 2.4GHz Panasonic phone. The answering machince is clear and easy to use. Panasonic phones are the BEST cordless!

Reliable signal, VOICE CHANGER!.......2006-08-12

Pros:
1)The phone looks good, takes up very little space on the counter.

2)We use the intercom very little, but it is pretty straightforward.

3)We can get clear signal all over our single level home and outside as we take out the trash.

4)The voice mail interface is nice, because it is easy to delete, repeat and stop messages.

5)The automated message doesn't play, but you can hear the person leaving the message, so you can screen calls.

6)You can also hear messages from the handset itself.

7)This phone is very good at detecting and not saving false messages, like when a caller hangs up before the message ends. Our last phone was a Sony, and we would have 2 messages every day that were just disconnect tones.

Cons:
1) the ring tones are abrasive electronic beeps or annoying melodies that are too soft to hear. I would prefer something like a regular phone ring, or least not a bad (BAD!!!) MIDI rendition of Beethoven's 5th symphony.

2) when you are looking for numbers on the handset's caller ID, The screen first gives you the name of the caller, and you have to wait for 10 seconds for a number to come up. This is annoying because a lot of people come up as "Private Caller", and you are waiting for the number, and there is no way to speed this along.

***Best Feature***
What we absolutely love is the voice changer. This is awesome for messing with telemarketers or pranking friends and family. You have a high pitch, silly voice, and deep voice. We are yet to tire of this. When you get the telemarketer to hang up on you, you have WON!!!

Bad microphone.......2006-07-05

Have to agree with #5 who said earlier the microphone pickup is bad. We've used this phone for 6 months now and most people ask us to speak up or tell us later they have a hard time hearing us. I have even taken the phone apart and removed a small screen that cover the microphone hole, but it doesn't seem to help. There doesn't seem to be any settings to help either. SO, in summary a nice looking phone, great featureset but LOUSY microphone pickup.
