Audio-GD NFB-11.32 & NFB-11 (2014) (Delivery & Impression Thread)!!!
Feeding digital to the NFB-11 is trivially better, as the NFB-11 cannot accept analog input. The RCA cable you mention will not work with NFB-11.- i019791

Audio-Gd Master 7 - Discrete Fully Balanced DAC (PCM1704)
Audio gd SA-1 (four 1704 chips, upgraded firmware) -> Audio gd Master-9 -> AKG K701 (made in Austria, single ended) is nice here. The cable of my K701 has only 3 wires and it is difficult to re-terminate it to xlr, I hope that your version is different.- i019791

Audio-GD NFB-11.32 & NFB-11 (2014) (Delivery & Impression Thread)!!!
They have the same dac chip. You are probably implying that all Audio-gd dacs using the es9018 chip sound the same regardless of their implementation. If you have heard a lot of them, fine. Better power supply and better volume control may be more important than more power, which comes as a...- i019791

I don't think I can advice how much the price difference will be worth to you. By the way, HD700 is not universally accepted as an upgrade to the HD650.- i019791

The NFB29 should be the less bright, and much better, of the two. Don't expect brightness issues with your phones, including the AKG.- i019791

Audio-Gd Master 7 - Discrete Fully Balanced DAC (PCM1704)
Audio Gd updated today an SA-1 dac I have to DSP v7. My first impressions are: Pros: more clear & precise, less warm. Cons: less romantic sound (less "musical"), more sibilant with bad recordings through Sennheiser HD800. Pros handily overtake the cons for my tastes, a really...- i019791

New Audio-gd DAC-19 [10th Anniversary Edition]
NOS 11 should be better mainly because of superior power supply (and not so because of the 4, instead of 2, dac chips). For use with NOS 19, you should prefer the C-2 amp to the NFB-1AMP.- i019791

With the Compass 2 as audio device, your headphones & speakers should work when you make the proper selections on the Compass, e.g usb input, H for headphones etc. Of course you must plug your headphones on the Compass.

Audio-gd NFB-28
You could try another headamp fed from your Asus before declaring the amp section defective. I would try spdif in any case, and trouble shoot sending an email to Audio Gd. By the way, the usage of the button at the back is described in the user manual at Audio Gd site.- i019791

Three New Amps on Preorder from Audio-GD (C-2 11th Anniversary Edition, NFB-1AMP, NFB-3AMP)
The XLR connection of the C-2 amp is indeed for convenience, but I can't see why it should necessary be worse than the SE connection. One should test both outputs before any judgment. I think Kingwa has implied that the XLR connection of the NFB-1 amp is slightly better than (any) connection of...- i019791
