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.

"Hey echineko, When we're working on these collaborations, a key factor is determining what's easy and what's difficult for the manufacturer we're working with. Changing the earcups, earpads, and sound signature of these headphones was in the realm of possible, but altering the cable structure to a removable system was impossible given the constraints of the project. To make the cables removable, Fostex would have had to make changes to the internal wiring structure and create new tooling ($50k+ immediate expense) for the frame to accommodate the removable cable. That said, it's worth knowing these headphones are easy to recable should you so desire. The earcup comes off via four screws hidden under the earpad, and from there the cabling of the headphone is pretty obvious. I've had to do it myself a few times and I'm no electrical engineer lol."
