    NFB-1AMP as dark as Phoenix?

    Hi! Read review about Audio Gd Phoenix and the dark side it has. Being near 10 years old I have reserves about buying second hand (pre-owned). Would the newest NFB-1AMP be as dark ? Will be running balanced LCD2. The dac is TEAC UD-501 and I really like it. Any consideration would be welcomed!

    Confused about impedance matching

    So the power output is relative to the Type of amplification use by the amp and the HP impedance. Interesting!
