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.

Maybe somebody can help me with advice regarding my need and a recomendation of a good amp for my particular set up. I just bought myself a pair of DT 770 Pro 80 ohms to be used mostly on my PC for streaming and listening to music etc. I have an external sound card with dac and built in amp (Asus Xonar U7). While this card can get my dt’s to an uncomfortably loud levels, I dont feel like there is enough bass coming out of my cans (I heard that the 80s supposed to be really bassy, but even my Logitech X-550 speakers, which are very far from being and audiphile piece of equipment give me a much punchier lows).
Also, I tried using my dt’s with my pixel xl, and the sound is super quite and bass is non-existent. I am not planning to be using the dt‘s on the go a lot, but I am getting the koss porta pro massdrop eddition whenever they will be shipped to me from md around December.
So tl;dr, is it worth it getting an amp for my dt’s, and is it going to improve the bass compared to my asus xonar u7? If so, will this be a decent amp for my purposes or can you recomend something I ahould get instead in the under 100$ range? Will the porta pros benefit from an amp?
Thanks
