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.

full disclaimer : I have exposure of this headset in my younger days, loved it then, so bias is a given. TL;DR: Looks cheap. feels cheap. leaks sound like crazy on higher volume. nice paint job and beefier -lower cables-. sounds hella awesome. bass is prioritized, and has a similar sound signature with bose. The Full Story: after almost contacting dhl customer service for my yet to be recieved package, lo and behold at my desk.. a small poo ish black thing. even smaller from what i remembered. the unboxing experience is.. tepid. but hey, looks aint the reason i buy this thing. Never Leaving The 80's. As much as i love to hate the poo look, the cheap feeling is apparent. its not that it isnt well made, the materials are solid enough, it just feels like it can break at anytime. on the plus side, its almost weightless. with the proper adjustment, it feels like nothing. Low Blow. solid full bass is the name of the game, and the poo aint taking prisoners. give it some bass and it will throw it back at you with a vengeance. its not overpowering but it does show some preference towards the low end. thats not stopping me enjoying the hell out of my tunes. sound will leak for sure when you get to certain volume level. Hearing is Believing. one of the high points is how when i pass this around the office and looking the disbelief look of those sampling this poo. between the 'how much' questions and the taking off, looking at the headphones and putting it on repeatedly with a confused look, a pattern emerge. Everybody seems to be enjoying the sound it produces. It baffles me that a product looking like this could actually sound as good as it is. since 1984. Amazing. Treat yourself and others to the wonder of disbelief at an affordable price, poo ish looks notwithstanding.
