One thing that dissapionts me about this audio card is I can't have a line level out volume through the line out or spdif/optical out , big let down as I have DAC amps and analog amps. I wouldn't have purchased this if I would have know this before hand.  I yet to test out line level out vs this...

I just put this audio card in my computer four days ago and have about 20hours of listening to it , got to say I'm not dissapointed with the stock electronics it came with.  I've read the beginning 24 pages and it's quite a journey for any of us I'm sure.   I get a kick out of you leeperry ...

Yeah , I felt bruised, used and abused before I even had a chance to break in my NFB11 after reading Trasik's rant.  But I'm enjoying listening to it with my HD600's anyway.  The NFB11 is a "promo" product after-all , it's freaking cheap and supposed to have critical user feedback.  I welcome it...

I just looked at their website , and it said "For Order" , so that means it's not "In Stock"...  so it will take at least seven to eight weeks before it arrives at your door. If it was "In Stock" , it would take one to two weeks to arrive at your door.  It always took eight days to get to my...

I mistook your identity too , But no matter who your are , it takes some balls to join a community that is known to really love thier headphones and dis one of it's sponsor's. You walked right up to a Hornet's nest and smacked it !  I got to admire that , I just hope you survive somehow , your...

I'd like to thank you tarsik for lifting the curtain and revealing to me what is real.  I've been redirected to your site so many times researching matters that pertain to audio that your opinion cannot be slighted in any way no how , not by me.  I first purchased the nfb12 , then the nfb11 with...

Quote: Thanks Tim!  That was a great little comparison , I took a heck of a lot from it. Question - did you use the same headphones and what where they?  I have recently aquired an 11 , I have the 12 too , and I always wondered about the elusive soundstage , I just have entry level...

Quote: I do know the D.I. plays very good with my NFB-12 (I used it with No Upsamling for about 200 hrs. , never a dropout), and it has Dual  Wolfson WM8741 inside like the NFB-2. 

Did you try it with just the "NO-C" jumper "ON" = 48K ?  I found that it too shrank the soundstage too, but 48K upsampling had more detail than 96K , but this is so subtle to me , not collapsed , some detail lost yes , but not a lot.  You have costlier equipment than I do , must have better...

Quote: Quick answer:  Yes , enabling the DI upsampling lowers the jitter... you can read more about other dropout fixes that worked for other Head-fier's at the Audio-GD NFB-11 thread , page 57 - post # 853 seems to confirm this.    

All I had to do to play a 88.2 file was to go into foobar's DSP Manager and activate the resampler (PPHS) , then configure it to 44.1 or 96 , it's just resampled , but works.  Kudo's for foobar , Knuckle-head rub for me.

Thanks erjifan , you must have something better than WinXP, I haven't found that kind of control in WinXP , time to upgrade I believe, just need to start looking for a real good laptop I can load my music files on.  Your the 1st person I've heard to get 88.2 work , nice job!

Quote: Did you get it to work ?  

I just went to Linn Records and downloaded 24/88.2 test file , with asio4all I get: Unrecoverable playback error: The ASIO device does not support specified sample rate (88200Hz); please configure resampler appropriately   I can't duplicate your claim since I haven't figured out a way yet...

Quote: Well there you go then...  I don't have any 88.2 files to even try anyway, I don't even know how to aquire them.  I did try those drivers for the Teralink X2 you linked too , they caused my video screen to go completely black when I tried to play a MP3 in foobar, had to push reset...

Quote: The Tenor TE7022 usb converter products do not support 88.2KHz files , as far as I know from reading reviews and googling.  I believe the M2Tech HiFace in your signature does though.   Cheers,  

Reading this shootout review helped convince me to buy the Audio-gd DI , the original HiFace has slightly fallen from grace around here when they changed to small clocks and it changed the sound flavor.  ...

The base of my TCXO is slightly elevated otherwise it would be touching a couple of resistors near it's side.

Has anyone here that noticed big changes using upsampling noticed it with the USB connection ?  I don't notice any difference with upsampling on or off , I also noticed that 64K - NO-C=on , MMDO=on doesn't work at all , I just get silence with a click about every three seconds.  All other...

  Quote: If audio chopping is the same as audio dropout , I corrected it by increasing my ASIO4ALL --> ASIO Buffer Size - from 256 Samples to 512 Samples.  I can't use WASAPI with WinXP , so I can't say if you would find a similiar setting there to change.   I would only get this...

I don't notice a difference using the digital interface in the USB path, sorry I gave that impression.  I have less than 30 hours on the Digital Interface , I ordered it with the TCXO upgrade , I only have the up-sampling jumper "NO-C" on .  I listen only to a lot of MP3's with the old lame 390...

Edwin , sorry , my bad.

One advantage you have ordering directly from Kingwa is getting the best , and the latest technology , order away.  

I'm waiting too ,for the NonUSB NFB-11,  I've got my early part of my request , Canare cables from Audio-gd that I'm using with mly NFB-12 , as well as th Ditall Interface , I'm breaking in so many things at once , hard to give an impression , other than I found my sound.  

I just did the mod where I remove the cloth over the face of the earspeaker and put some blu-rak over the magnet cover , I , modded it , and I offecialy belong to this amazing thread.
