nuforce

    Original Review and pictures of NOCS NS200 is here or the portable earphone thread at /f103   First: I think this SHOULD be here in the portable source forums as it deals directly with specific models: iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, and even iPod shuffle and nano. I've been looking for an...

Just got the HD 650s and I love them.  The soundstage blows away my HD 598s outa the water.  The only beef I have with these cans is I can understand how something people say "boring" because right now the sound is decently thick.  Like a veil or just like listening to something behind a wall. ...

I am looking for an amp to use for my laptop but right now only want to spend about $100. These two really interest me and was wondering if anybody had opinions which one is better?   I have a Macbook pro 15 inch laptop and will be using AAudio Technica ATH-M50's. 

I Have the Denon Ahd2000 and am searching for a good but affordable portable amp. I have scoured the Forums n worn ou the search functions and i cannot decide if the ibasso d4 at 199 is worth more than double the price of the nuforce icon mobile at 79 (esp since the d4 has a 9 hour batt life)...

I've been using the HDP Icon as the amp for my k701 for a while and recently, I've been thinking of getting another amp. I've read a couple of posts where the Burson HA 160 seems to pair quite well with the k701. I would just like to ask if going from the HDP to the 160 would be worth the price...

Can someone help me with a recommendation? I like the sound of NuForce IEMs but, despite treating them very gently, my third pair just crapped out. I think that's my cue to try something else. Does anyone know of anything with a similar sound but more reliable build-quality? I'm not using a...

I lost my earphones again, and I would really like to buy more expensive headphones but knowing my track record means that i can't afford anything above $30. These are the headphones that i need to choose among because of that price restrction. Have any fo you guys heard anything about these...

Hey everyone. I have a pair of NuForce NE-7M's that I have had for a couple of years. At the time they were purchased as a best bang for the buck set around their price point (my old pair of Shure SE 310's were stolen). While I have enjoyed them, I am looking for something to replace them.  ...

iam looking for good earphones under 60 bucks. I started out with only wanting to spend 20 on them but decided it was worth it to spend alittle more. I decided on the brainwavz m2 or the nuforce sets. Just wanted to check with all you before I make the purchase. I am leaning towards the m2. Is...

  Hello! So I've borrowed NuForce amp/DAC from my friend to get a general impression, but I'm already baffled by the interface properties. From my understanding, upscaling the image and video files often causes degradation in quality, but I'm not sure how the amp works with respect to this...

Just got the NE8 from FedX. Opened it up and it has the same round zipper case as the PL30. The headphone itself looks the same as the PL30 except it doesn't have the adjustable bass/treble button like on the PL30. This is where the similarities stop. There is a moldable 2 1/4 sleeve on each...

The NuForce is fifty bucks, the SoundMAGIC PL-11 is $12, yet they look almost identical except for the different colored metal. Are they the same sound-wise? And would the tips from the Sound-Magic fit the NuForce? They appear identical in size and shape.

Ok so just a quick question. I have a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 which gets audio USB out of my laptop. I want to get an amp to go with my HD 650's but I'm not sure if I should use my Creative as a DAC and get a stand alone AMP or if I should get a DAC/AMP all-in-one combo that...

Hi everyone,   1st time poster, been reading for about 1 year. I've tried searching for a comparison thread of cans with reviews (i remember there was one but i can't find it) but to no avail. Hopefully someone will either lead the way or just give me some suggestions!   So here is the...

I am curious if anyone has any thoughts on my current dillema LCD-2 + HDP   or   LCD-2 + Mapletree Super II + ????     I'm waiting to have mine built and I am looking around for a dac/amp to buy as my current setup consists of a AK k81dj + nuforce uDAC.   I want to try a big...

So I've had my lovely AKG K 272 HD for about an year now and have enjoyed them all the time. Still, I suspect I'm not enjoying them to their full extent, as my source is a Realtek AC'97 chipset on a cheap laptop. They do get loud, but I suppose I'm not wrong if I say that the amount of juice...

I was getting a Nuforce HDP as I want a DAC/Headphone amp that also has pre-outs for my powered monitors. I discovered the Fubar IV, which has what I need. Has anyone done a quality comparison between that and the HDP or any other amp? The price point is a big difference. The HDP at $445 is a...

I am looking for a USB DAC with Line Out. I am not too concerned about sound quality since it will be used to play streaming online video. I just need the price to be good and to have line out. What do you guys recommend?

Hello does anybody knows if the mic on these iems works with sony ericsson xperia x10 or is there any other iems that have mic that will work with my phone. with clear in-call volume. thanks

Right now I have a Fubar 4 as well as an Auzentech XFi HTHD card the specs of which state that it can drive 600 ohms headphones. I am unsure if anyone else here has tried this card for driving such a headphone.   In either case I might consider getting a better dedicated amp if you guys...

Kindly suggest: Nuforce NE 6 or Brainwavz M2 Requirements: Nice bass but without a compromise on overall sound. Budget: $ 70 (max) Any other IEM suggestions apart from these.

Ok, I think I've narrowed it down to a handful, but I need help in the final selection.   First, let me describe what I am looking for:   Play mostly music from my notebook, desktop and mp3 player to my headphones. Which is why I am looking mainly at DAC/amp combos.   Source: Sager...

I want a portable amp that I can use for my PC and my iPod.  Does this amp meet those qualifications?  I've heard the nuforce is a good, inexpensive amp choice for the Denon AHD 2000s.   Anyone have experience with this combination?  Right now my Denons feel less...warm....then I expect they...

I have owned the AKG-702s for over a year powered by the onboard sound of a Dell Precision 390 workstation.  While they sound pretty good already, I have a good ear for quality would like to unleash the true potential of the 702s.  Despite being a music-aholic I know nothing about electrical...

Who has a better sound overall? I know both IEM's packs with bass but which is better in terms of the sound they deliver? any ideas? thanks.... really need your help..
