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 received two packages of the B100s on this drop and plugged them in without knowledge of their price, quality, or typical reviews. I listened to a variety of unequalized FLACs on a FiiO x5.
I'm quite impressed. Build quality is exemplary. The soundstage seems exceptionally wide. The sound is very neutral. Vocals and midrange are amazingly clear. In terms of sound, they most remind me of Sennheiser's understated, excellent HD600 open headphones. The bass is there but the B100s are not trying to be a "fun" hip-hop headphone.
Reading through some of the reviews, I can't help but offer a bit of advice. I received a higher-quality IEM than some, but I own many of Brainwavz' M-series and found them decent in terms of sound. If you don't like how your IEMs sound, and you don't have a lot of experience with these sorts of earphones, I strongly recommend you try out all of the sizes and types of earbuds that are included. For me, the extra-large silicone earpieces work the best; other people swear by the foam earpieces (which sound like crap to me, even the expensive branded ones.) The success of these sorts of phones are highly dependent on fit, so make sure you're finding the fit that works for you before dismissing your purchase as terrible.
