Personally I think the NFB-10 SE is very musical with the WM8805 SPDIF or USB input. The USB sounds great in fact and I probably wouldn't bother with an external SPDIF converter.
I would probably say the NFB-10 ES is very clean, detailed with great imaging, very coherent and smooth. SE to me is more rich and musical, and to my ears more enjoyable, more natural in tone and timbre but less coherent and clean.
I will probably hang on to these until my HE-6 arrives, but I have a feeling it will be the sabre ES that I will be selling based on my current feelings.
SE will probably make HE-6 more musical and fun sounding while ES will bring out the best parts of the HE-6. Choose wisely! Down to personal preference now!
