It says LR, SL SR, C SUB and RL RR - all 3.5mm jacks.   And the optical one only says L R Rear panel optical jack.   The thing is - I just spent $400 on the external DAC(nfb 3.1 with an extra chip) and I still kind of prefer the x fi 'speakers' option more than the 'SPDIF out'. If that's...

On the sounds window found on windows 7 (the playback tab) I can choose either to use the 'speakers' or 'spdif out' as my 'default device'. I know it sounds weird, but it's true - I'm getting two different sound signatures from each option.   I know that it can't be anything else because...

Sorry, I forgot to add - there's no speakers currently plugged in to the sound card.

Hi, I'm currently running a x fi titanium > (optical out) nfb 3.1 > fiio e9.   Now, my question lies within setting the 'default device' (found inside the sounds option); there are two options that sound quite different - the 'speakers' and the 'spdif out'. If I set the default device as...

Thanks for clearing that up!

Just received my nfb 3.1. I, however, keep getting complete and utter static when I change the 'flavor' to either 7,8 and 9.   Someone please help me.

Can you guys give me a brief description on how ACSS sounds like with the 3.1/2.1 and c2 amp? Is the sound musical or is it too analytical?

That's awesome to hear!   I'm still waiting until next Tuesday for him to send out my unit (nfb 3.1) and it's a great thing to hear some positive sentiments on the device - honestly, the eternal wait is slowly tearing me up inside-out!   Anyway, it's nice to hear that you're enjoying the...

Can someone tell me briefly what the differences are between the DIR9001 and wm8805? I've just recently ordered one (with the stock wm8805) and I'm currently banging my head about whether or not to buy the DIR9001(and have both) or just switch the wm8805 out with the DIR9001.   I currently...

Quote: That's an odd looking thing! Why did they decide to case it like that? Looks like a torchlight tbh .   I'll definitely take a look at it though, thanks for the recommendation.  

Bump!   Please help me guys...I'm getting desperate here...and lonley

Hi, I'm relatively new to the whole 'audiophile' thing and need some recommendations on a new dac - budget is at around $200~$350 (I'm willing to stretch it a bit if it's worthwhile).   My audio gear consists of a dt990/600 ohm, fiio e9 and creative x fi titanium (non-hd); it is a pretty...

I too have a dt 990/600 and share the exact same sentiments about it's weaknesses (although I still think they sound frickin' awesome!) and would love to hear about the SQ once you're done. Coming from someone who has never owned a tube amp and never even indulged in a single DIY project - I am...

I just ordered my fiio e10 from mp4nation and was wondering which version of the BRAINWAVZ beta they're giving out with the fiio - can someone help clarify this for me?

Hi clieos, can you please elaborate more on the e10+e9 combination? I am going to pair it with the dt 990 600 ohm edition (which is quite bright) and just wanted to have a more general idea of what the fiio e10 and e9 sound like together, thanks!
