— NHT’s Big Screen Appearance
Provides Ample Opportunity for Consumer Contest —
BENICIA, CA, August 18, 2005 — Look closely at the main location of the new hit movie “Broken Flowers” starring Bill Murray, and it becomes clear that the lead character has exceptional taste in home audio equipment.
Featured as part of the character Don Johnston’s home theater system is a pair of NHT tower speakers, situated behind a flat screen monitor.
“Last year, we were contacted by one of the film’s producers who said the lead character would have a top-flight home audio system, so they needed a pair of our speakers to complete the image,” said Chris Byrne, Managing Director, NHT.
A Good Excuse For A Promotion
