Audio-GD NFB-11.32 & NFB-11 (2014) (Delivery & Impression Thread)!!!
Jan 21, 2016 at 3:55 AM Post #1,996 of 3,093
I don't know about the option 1+2 Amp but the Aune X1s, don't. From what i remember reading reviews, the X1s is pretty similar to the NFB 11 but the NFB 11 is a little better (Aune X1s use ES9018K2M chip while the NFB 11 use ES9018). If you prefer a warmer sound you should buy the NFB 15 not the NFB 11.


As mentioned above the NFB-12 is discontinued, so you have tio try and find one used. I could not find one.

Thanks for the heads up on the Aune.

Hi, first post here.
 
I am in the process of ordering a DAC+Amp for my set of headphones: Sony F1 (12 ohm), Sony SA1000 (70 ohm) and HD700 (150 ohm).
I only use headphones, never speakers.
 
I am down to 4 choices: NFB11, O2+ODAC, Essence One and Essence STU.
NFB11 is my first option right now, but I have cons for all options:
 
NFB11: Power at Back, bright sound may not be good for open headphones which already suffer on bass.
 
02+ODAC: no optical input, poor power supply, designed for portability so maybe power limited compared to other options.
 
Essence One: Expensive, its 10 ohm should not be ideal for my 12 ohm Sony F1.
 
Essence STU: poor power supply, weaker amp, 10 ohm.
 
As I said, I am inclined to the NFB11, but the switch power at back is being difficult to swallow. The on/off button is my most used one. Is it only a problem to me?
Also does it warm as long as it is on, or does it warm only when receiving sound?  
 
If I get confirmation that NFB11 will be the best to drive my specific phones, I will have to go for it.
On the other hand if the O2 is up to the job, I can consider it despite the no optical.
 
Thanks for any help.

It's easy enough to switch it on and off with it at the back. Never had a problem with it.

Well in my case I will not be able to reach it sitting, so will have to get up to turn it on/off. You can call me lazy.
Unless I can leave it on all the time. Therefore my question if it warms only when sound is input.

Never heard the Mojo but from what i read its seems the Mojo is better becauses they compare it with the DAC19 (which is a higher level Audio GD product compare to the NFB-11).

Mojo is twice the price and nfb-11 provides more power. However, it seems that mojo can drive almost anything including HE560 to reasonable listening level. I find it quite surprising.
