    Schiit Bifrost vs Audio-gd NFB-2 (2014)

    Hi, I'm in research for a new DAC. I'm thinking about getting Schiit Bifrost (Uber+USB) or Audio-gd NFB-2 (2014). Would be nice if someone who has some experience with either or even both could share their impressions. I have Schiit Vali and Darkvoice 336SE as my amps. My headphones are Senn...

    Yulong D100 vs Audio-gd NFB-3 for HD650 and PRO900

    I've been considering this for a while now and can't seem to reach a conclusion. It's fairly difficult if the product is not near at hand to demo. The Cambridge DacMagic Plus is quite popular and even exists in my local hi-fi store from where I demoed it and found it to be overly bright, just a...

    I Have This Rig In Mind....Should I Be Looking Elsewhere ?

    So yeah I read around these forums and I've read that apparently as a rule of thumb one should spend equal money on each supporting equipment (dac and headamp mainly) to whatever the headphones cost. This would also seem to explain why I've been unsatisfied with much cheaper portable dac/amps...
