So aparently Audio-gd Is coming out with yet another new Balanced DAC. basically this looks like a NFB-17 on steroids with  4x  PCM1704UK instead of dual WM8741.   Considering how well regarded the Ref7.1 (8xPCM1704) and DAC19 (2XPCM1704) are i am willing to bet that this thing is gonna be...

Hello all.   I cannot wait for the official Objective 2 Desktop Amplifier so i would like one built in a desktop form factor from someone here.   I would like to have a 1/4" Neutrik Socket, Pot, Gain Selector, and Power button on the front, with the power plug and RCA's on the back. I...

Looks like Audio-gd is getting ready to release several new products including this new Amplifier.   Looks great to me, plenty of Class A power, and tons of inputs/outputs, its like a supercharged balanced C2.2 (which i did love) Kingwa claims "NFB-6 have Neutral and monitor sound , don't...

So here is my situation: I have decided that the audio-gd nfb-10se is not for me. The DAC section was good but I did not care for the amp section (it was bested by an objective 2). I have now sold the nfb10se. I'm pretty sure my replacement Dac is going to be a Audiolab MDAC, however they are on...

Hello all.   I am going to be buying a Audio-GD NFB-10SE soon. It will eventually be paired with Balanced LCD2's. However for a while i will be using it with my Denon D2000 which are not balanced. The NFB-10SE puts out 1/4 the power of balanced operation when in single ended mode. What i...

So i should have these awesome looking Energy RC10 Bookshelves on monday for my computer setup. I am planning on using the Preouts on my Audio-GD C2.2 for volume control, So all i need is a basic amp or chaper AVR.   Right now i have an old Yamaha Receiver (HTR-5730) that will do the job...

Hey Head-fi.   I feel it would be useful to have a tag next to the user name to identify if they are the OP in the thread, that way we dont always have to go back to the first page to remember who the op is, maybe its just me being lazy, but i feel it would make it much easier to see when...

Hello All, I currently have a pair of D2000's with the following mods: -Full Mark L Mod -D7000 Cups -Jmoney V3 Pads -Recabled with Silver-ray Cable and Furitech Plug (currently being done)     In my mind im thinking that with all these upgrades they must be pretty damn close to...

Ok, so i want to re-cable my D2000's as i cannot stand the stock cable and i feel it is starting to become the weak link in my system as i have purchased all the source/dac/amps that i need/   I have some questions and concerns im hopping you guys can help me out with. Any suggestions are...

Hey all, i just received a beautiful pair of Headphile Darth Beyers VXD3's Currently they have the Beyer leather pads on them. I was wondering if the J$ pads are worth the cash to upgrade to (being as i already have leather pads).   I have J$ pads for my D2000's that i love, but they are...

Hi All, I just pulled the trigger on a Kicas for my Rig. For the time being I am going to be using the Ibasso D10 Cobra (WM8740) as a DAC. However i would like to eventually upgrade to something better. Im not trying to break the bank, but want something that will improve the sound. I was...

Hi all, I have recently completed the mark L mod complete with D7000 wood cups on my D2000 headphones. Currently I have them powered with the Ibasso D10. It sounds awesome, and is quite a step up from my M50's. However I cant help but wonder if i am getting the most of these headphones with this...

Hello All.   So ive had my M50's combo'd with my Ibasso Cobra D10 for some time now. I am very happy with them, but am looking to add to my collections. I love the sound of these cans, especially the bass. I listen to all types of music but primarily Metal, DNB, Dubstep, and PSY Trance.  ...

Hi all,   This summer i purchased a D10 Cobra from a user here and have been loving it ever since. Now all of a sudden there is alot of static and horrible sound quality where there is any bass. It is like this on all inputs. Could it be the opamps? Please any help would be appreciated as it...
