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've also found using a dac/amp helps bring out a good amount of detail, clairty, depth of soundstage, and imaging. I use the Centrance DACport HD (not to be mistaken for the Centrance Massdrop Slim Exlusive).
But these are so amazing for the price. Don't think any headphones in this price point can match these in terms of balance of sound in all ranges.
Bass is lacking a bit, but its not even a big issue since everything else is on point. There is quite a bit of sub bass, which is something I wasn't expecting.
Also to note, these Blue Monks sound better then the original Monk Plus. The frequency range is much larger then the original as well.
To me, these give the feeling of wearing full size open headphones. Which is so freaking strange and amazing at the same time. I use them with the thin foams they come with. I doubled it up and it sounds really good. Can't really use these without foams imho. One foam is ok, but two foams is where its at if you find the highs to be too harsh and the bass to be lacking depth and clarity.
