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.

Yeah these are too resolving for low bitrate... mp3,aac,ac3,ogg most compressed lossy formats.... flac or better these get way more clear and smooth dsd even better especially out of BugHead Emperor. Yeah these are like entry level audiophile high source and gear requirements but low potential to soar the more power you put into them kind of putting them in a funny usage window. Too high for everyday listening and low bitrate and internet radio but more limited than other pricier audiophile headphones for flac or dsd pull em out god sessions as you probably already have something better. Most probably got these as a window into what Hifiman sound sig is tho and I guess they do fulfill the prime objective if you had better Hifimans already you probably wouldnt get these unless for a kid or as a gift for someone just getting into or trying to inspire into Hifi.
Whoever delivered my package abused the hell out of it; got to me all smashed up, corner of the actual box inside is dinged and crumpled. Really looked like they kicked this package around tho the headphones inside seem to be fine.
Haven't received the he-350 yet, however, I'm kinda afraid of the 19ohms they advertise, my lowest hdp are 40ohms and they have the above struggles with my amp.
