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.

Unlike some other combo units, when you turn this off the DAC powers off. That was fine with Windows, but Volumio on my RPi didn't like that so much, and I'm not about to leave a tube on all the time.
I'll also note that while the power output noted in the specs seems awfully low, it can drive my HE400, 4XX and TH-X00 PH easily. I have not tried my T-X0 with it, but I don't foresee any issues there, nor do I have any high impedance cans to try with it.
Also, in that range I see lots of units with one big filter cap and a few with a bank of 6-8 smaller ones - I'm thinking the latter's likely to be a bit cleaner without restricting current in any relevant way here, would you think that's correct?
