Hello, I just joined, primarily for the audiophile products. Looking at purchasing the NHT C3 speakers for our new living room. Space is about 15 feet wide by 33 long and they will fire long ways. Space is just for general listening, music room with all equipment is downstairs, so hoping they will fill it with sound nicely. Cheers.

I guess most of you would have found them on Google. The general impression (at this early stage) seems to be of soft treble, less-than-best detail, possibly lack of “punch”. It seems that the music moves slightly to the front of your head instead of being in the centre of your head. Two reviewers say that the soundstage from well regarded competition is wider and better appreciated. The big doodad on the sides of the ear cups are just logos and not levers or switches or anything! I suspect the CZ1 probably represents an interesting experiment which, at best, delivers an exotic experience that may not live up to its apparent goal: speaker-like soundstage. I’m not sure that’s worth the money. I’m saving up for a Stax.
