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 am seriously after a good pair of planar magnet HE's so are these the ones to go for or sit it out until the HE400 arrives?!
Lastly....
Based in the UK and need to redo my desktop setup so new headphone amp, DAC etc etc. An example would be Schiit Magni2/Modi2 combo. Can anyone recommend a company?
Thank you!
Re: Desktop DAC/Amp combo. I have the Schiit Magni 2 Uber/Modi 2 Uber combo and I have to say I'm delighted with it.
I regard myself as a junior audiophile. I like to keep the budget within reasonable limits, so the combined £300 cost was about all I was prepared to pay, but I think it's worth it. I'm powering a pair of AKG K712 Pro headphones and I'm delighted with every aspect. They look really goo too.
EDIT: I got the Schiit combo from the EU distributor so no customs charges. PM if you want details.
Thank you :)
I've also got a Fulla 2 which I use at work, and that's a hell of a lot of dac/amp for the money - worth thinking about if budget is a consideration.
Unlike the super-fatiguing, treble-heavy sound of the HE-350, the HE- 400i has lush mids and an overall balanced presentation. In addition, the 400i has plush earpads - whereas the 350's pads are stiff and uncomfortable because their ear openings are too small for human ears.
My advice is to pass on the HE-350's, as there are better headphones available in this price range.
Cheers :)
