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.

half the reviews on this site are "omg it sounds amazing". It doesn't sound "amazing". It doesn't sound "great". Its VERY clampy (I actually like that), its clearly made from very cheap materials, and sound wise, any generic 30$ monitor from walmart or best buy is going to compete with this. Sorry you cant see this.
is actually how I would describe the sound. They do not sound great, but adequate for my application, which is DJIng and monitoring. For these applications I am looking at certain frequecies in particular the mids and bass and then the isolation.
Materialwise, I think that they are surprisingly good. To be honest the HD25 feels cheap, maybe not as cheap as the HD562 and the HD25 is overpriced at the US price of $249. Ridiculous. It is not even hi end like my HD800s. The HD25 sounds good, but it is still congested too.
You are mistaken in your flawed onions. We all need these things for different reasons. Just because it did not fit what you were looking for does not make them trash or bad. or cheapo headphones. The HD562 is in fact a great headphone IMHO.
Pair that with the cheap plastic material and they feel cheap. They are under 40 dollars, I'd call that cheap.
Are they terrible? No. Could you do better? Probably if you go with IEMs. Honestly they sound about as good as Skullcandy in the same price range, but I find that those Target/Wallmart consumer headphones are more comfortable than these.
I'm glad you like the headphones though and that they fit you well. Unfortunately they aren't for me.
