New Head-Fier
how do they compare to the first version?
Hi all, I'm new to the audiophile / audio-enthusiast world, and even newer to Head-Fi.org. I am considering buying a secondhand set of the Aeon Flow Closed. My current DACs are the Dragonfly Black and the Topping NX4 DSD. Would they (or at least the NX4) be powerful enough to drive the AFC? Thanks.

I'm afraid not. At least not well enough to make AFC sound their best. It requires more current than most portable device can deliver. IME, AFC will sound best on desktop amps.
Most people I see complaining AFC sound too thin is because it is more or less under driven. Get something like the Element II. Or if you already have a DAC
@mrspeakers just received closed model. Very happy. Just wanted to ask i have changed leather pads and after i lifted up old ones i saw a white foam like white filter over the ribbon. I suspect it is better not to touch/remove it? Becouse i got closed model second hand i am not shure if it is from factory or not. Also after lifting old pad i found felt filter beneath the pad. Please clarify me how it should be. Thanks!!!
Make every day a fun day filled with music and friendship!
