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.

The manufacturer has disappeared from the Internet, is not answering any emails to his eBay seller account (DavidZheZhe), and has disabled new user registration and all email functionality on his website (littledot-dot-net). There is no way to contact him, there is no way to obtain support, and therefore no warranty. The product has obviously never been evaluated by UL or TUV as there is no way it could past muster from a product safety standpoint.
Dedicated headphone amps are a relatively small audio niche. Massive tube-based headphone amps are a generally tiny audio niche.
Having evolved quite independently, noise cancelling products are a radically different technology and a large market niche.
Not to mention the absolute chaos resulting from the shift from 1/8" TRS to TRRS jacks. Just a few months ago, my new $400 headphones (TRRS) refused to play at all with a 5 year old Macintosh (TRS). I was forced to buy an adapter (or an external DAC/amp) for that machine.
So, we are now in a world where a plug is not a plug and an amp is not an amp anymore. I'm starting to understand why Apple dropped the 1/8" jack, even though I still want it.
