Audio-GD NFB-11
Quote: +1 I have both a NFB-11 and a Compass. I am seriously thinking of selling them both and getting a NFB-10. While the NFB-11 was a noticeable improvement over the Compass, I wish I went for the balanced route in the first place.- noxlord

Audio-GD NFB-11
Just so the thread say focused, I tried the USB input of my NFB-11 today and it worked wonderfully, no glitches or skips. Only the same acoustical goodness I get from the coax spdif of my Xonar STX. milosz, my statement was sarcastic ... but it's not fun anymore if I have to...- noxlord

Audio-GD NFB-11
It's a well known fact than a mere computer could never achieve the same bit-extracting precision of a CD player. In the computer audio sub-forum, there is horror stories of mixed-up bits and lost frequencies all over the place. Better not go this way. Analog audio all the way is still the...- noxlord

Audio-GD NFB-11
Many people, including me, are willing to overlook miscommunications and other quirks of buying direct from the source in China in exchange for a much lower price than we would get from a "western" dealer. I don't want to pay for tacky and deceiving marketing, I want the best sound for the money...- noxlord

Audio-GD NFB-11
Ok, stop panicking everyone. There is no reason to believe the NFB-11 or any other implementation of the usb input on Audio-gd gear is faulty ( The same chip is used on most every other usb supported audio-gd gear ). Some people in a Japanese forum reported software issues. Such problems are...- noxlord

NEED HELP. need a usb dac/amp that can do active speakers.
I think the Audio-gd FUN would fit your needs perfectly. The most expensive "A" version will fit your budget still.- noxlord

Audio-GD NFB-11
The real question is: Do you really need 32/192 playback ?? most sound cards only do 24/192. Actually, if you really want to output 24/192, you should invest in a better sound card rather than a converter. In fact, there might be spdif pins on your mobo/soundcard so you could DIY a coax...- noxlord

Audio-GD NFB-11
My heart jumped a beat when I saw that a NFB-10 was released right after I ordered a NFB-11 for 260$. Now that I know it's being sold at 850$, I am quite releived. It kinda makes me wonder if my D2000 would sound better with recable and ballanced feed ... Humm .... Quote:- noxlord

Nice cans those Pro 900s The Audio-gd FUN is a solid contender for computer audio, since you can connect it via USB. It's versatile, built like a tank and have a good reputation around here. I think it is pretty safe to state that it can't be beat for the money. Especially when you...- noxlord
