    Audio-GD NFB-11.32 & NFB-11 (2014) (Delivery & Impression Thread)!!!

    For anyone wondering, the NFB 11 paired together with the T70 is void of all warmth, far from an ideal match. I should have listened to Mad lust Envy's warning :(

    Audio-GD NFB-11.32 & NFB-11 (2014) (Delivery & Impression Thread)!!!

    Thanks, already checked the backside. Got a sticker that says 230V , but nothing about 50-60HZ. Should be okey anyways, right?

    Audio-GD NFB-11.32 & NFB-11 (2014) (Delivery & Impression Thread)!!!

    got mine today, sadly the powercord is of chinese standard, I need europlug standard powercord. So would it be of any concern if I just used a spare europlug cable I have laying around from an older monitor? The cable looks identical to the china one in the end that is going into the NFB-11, or...

      I hope they sound as nice with the less warm sounding NFB-11, otherwise I might have to return here for further information regarding options for warmer headphones ;)

    NFB-11 + T70 ordered! Figured I would take one for the team and try this combo out. If I don't like it I will return the T70's and try to match the NFB-11 with a different headphone.   Thanks everyone who helped me reach a decision!

    Soundcard/DAC + headphones for PC gaming and movies

      Got another mail from them. They have now agreed to lower the price for the unit + shipping from 500 USD to 436 USD. A bit odd that the first figures for both the unit and shipping was higher, then when I questioned their domestic price difference compared to prices aimed at the rest of the...

      Well it can't be worse then the combo I have right now. I got a HDA X-plosion soundcard from 2005 paired together right now with cheap Creative Fatal1ty headphones.   Btw, genclaymore in the dedicated NFB-11 thread found the 15.32 to be too warm for his T90's. As they are pretty similair to...

    Audio-GD NFB-11.32 & NFB-11 (2014) (Delivery & Impression Thread)!!!

      Thanks, Also, have a cable duct in aluminium underneath the desk where I have a powerplug box and cables. I need to let the 3 meter cable from the T70 headphone pass through that, will it cause any kind of humming disturbance?

      I agree with you. Im awaiting further email from them regarding costs for RMA shipping, but right now it is looking like I will place my order directly with Audio GD instead.

    Audio-GD NFB-11.32 & NFB-11 (2014) (Delivery & Impression Thread)!!!

    How susceptible is the NFB-11 to nearby electric equipment, got a electric desk with the motor placed underneath at the same location where I plan to place the NFB-11 on top, shouldn't be a problem, right? Also, have a cable duct in aluminium underneath the desk where I have a powerplug box and...

    Soundcard/DAC + headphones for PC gaming and movies

    Quick update :  Got email from the Polish site, and they have the updated NFB-11 2014 model with all the extras, only downside is that they want 500 USD - shipping included.   So 407 USD from China, dunno what the customs fees will land on if imported from China, but it will hardly be 93...

          I have no problems with that as long as the DAC/amp isn't sharp/harsh sounding together with the T70's

    Audio-gd Compass 2 amp/DAC Impressions thread

          It's either the NFB-11 or a STXII for me, just have to make up my mind if I gonna gamble on ordering a NFB-11 and pair it with the T70's. I actually like it to be very high detail and neutrality, but im afraid it's gonna be so bright that it's gonna sound harsh/sharp together with...

      Have you tried it with headphones similar to the Beyers that are more bright ?

    Audio-gd Compass 2 amp/DAC Impressions thread

      Maybe I should get a STXII instead and call it a day?

    Audio-gd Compass 2 amp/DAC Impressions thread

      But isn't it better to have an amp that is more accurate and then try to find a headphone that matches it? The NFB-11 is supposed to be more detailed and accurate then the NFB-15, right?

    Audio-gd Compass 2 amp/DAC Impressions thread

      Im kinda aiming for the NFB-11 right now, you think I would be better of going for NFB-15 paired with the T70 headphones?

    Planning to get the Asus Xonar Essence STX II 7.1 with Senn HD600 or HD650 combo.... need advice whether it is worth it?

      Stop ruining it for me  Im about to pull the trigger on a NFB-11, and you say there is no audible difference paired with high impedence headphones

      There are no custom fees within the European union, so the price I gave you is all I have to pay, so no need to declare anything. In case of repair the dealer will repair the unit at their location or replace it, only negative is that they only offer 3 years warranty on it.

    Soundcard/DAC + headphones for PC gaming and movies

    Ok I did an order inquiry with Audio-GD for the NFB-11 and got a total sum for the NFB-11 + 2 X TCXO and shipping/paypal fees for 407 USD.   Now on their homepage they have a list of world wide resellers, and I found one within Europe that ships to Sweden. Only problem is they only offer the...

      Then it would seem to be pretty pointless to pay 499 USD for the 9018 and only get the ESS module, when you could get the 384 including all modules for 449 USD, if additional DA modules go for 25 USD that is.
  22. Falconetti

    Audio-gd Compass 2 amp/DAC Impressions thread

    So are there any other differences between the two except for the DA modules?

      Yup, that what I've been told. But I think the advice cel4145 gave pretty much hit the nail on the head for me.   http://www.head-fi.org/t/737734/soundcard-dac-headphones-for-pc-gaming-and-movies/90#post_10972594
