    The best of the best speaker...

    I only voted for the Wilson Watt/puppy because they have been a standard that all others have been judged against for over 15 years.  Also there are probably more of those setups in people's homes than any of the other listed speakers.

    DAC for my Celestion SL6si 's ?

    I owned a pair of SL6S's for 10 years and they really need power to get them going since they were only had a SPL of 84db at 1w at 1M rating.  I used a pair of Primare mono blocks that were rated at 200 watts to power my pair.  As for a DAC that really up to your taste on what kind of sound you...

    Audio-gd FUN

    Has anyone compared the SUN vs. the MOON?   I have had my SUN unit since January and it started out lively and then got better.  Better being more dynamics, air, presence, detail resolution and depth of bass than the original opamp.  I agree that it takes 300 to 350 hours of use to get the most...

    Review of the Audio-GD FUN - A modular Dac / Headphone amp / Preamp

      Quote: I am using the SUN OPA too.  It really woke the FUN up.  When I got it in December the FUN sounded similar to the MF V-DAC that I had purchased earlier but had a much smoother high end.  I was hoping it would break-in and start to open up and get a bit more dynamic.  I...

    Audio-GD NFB-11

    I was also one folks who ordered a NFB-11 and waited for the issues to be sorted out.  But I changed my order and had Edwin/Kinwa send me a FUN Version A with the Wolfson WM8471 dac instead.   I also just received one of their OPA-SUN modules and installed it.  All I can say is that I am very...

    Audio-GD NFB-11

    Ditto. I would like to hear from someone who has listened to both units since I switched my order from the 11 to the Fun.

    Audio-GD NFB-11

    I was originally going for the NFB 11 but when the USB issues came up and Audio-GD's ability to deliver a product in a reasonable time period I jumped ship and went with the FUN.

    Musical Fidelity V-DAC Owners?

    Get the Pyramid 13.8VDC power supply  and hook it up to your V-DAC and run it for 3 weeks.  I think you will be very pleased.  It took mine about 3 weeks to break in and settle into its final sound.   Quote:

    Audio-GD NFB-11

    I recieved my FUN version A last Friday.  I have had it hooked up with both the headphone output going to some earbuds and the Line output going to my main solid state rig for the past five days.  I set my iTunes library to play continuously to try to get a head start on breaking this unit in.  ...

    Quote: I received an email today that Audio-gd will be shipping my FUN tomorrow.  So, hopefully it will show up sometime next week.  :-)

    Audio-GD NFB-11

    Quote: The FUN dose use the Wolfson WM8741 which is still a highly regarded DAC chip, a larger power supply, the ACSS system and a more flexible pre-amp section.  I feel this is still a good gateway product into the Audio-gd family of products to evaluate.

    Audio-GD NFB-11

    I contacted Audio-gd and decided to go with a Version A FUN HA/DAC.  They offered me the 5% discount on the FUN and they said they will be shipping it out in the next 4 days.  I feel that the FUN is bit of a step up from the NFB-11 in their product line.  Hopefully I will see it this next week.

    Audio-GD NFB-11

    I too have placed an order for a NFB-11 and are wondering what the status is of this product.  I have emailed Kingwa that I am open to a Fun Version A if they can ship one of those sooner.
