I have had my NFB-12 for a week now. I have HD-650 headphones (standard cable) and find the NFB-12 does the job well. I do have a beresford caiman which I have been using as a preamp. Caiman has a headphone setup as well which sounds fine with the HD-650
I don't find the treble to be toned down at all with the NFB-12 on the HD-650 at least compared with the Caiman which I am told is neutral in sound. The interesting thing is that my ipod touch (3) powers the HD 650 fine at full volume. In fact there really is only a little difference in sound quality unless I am listening at higher volumes than the Ipod can deliver which is surprising. I dont think that is poor reflection on the NFB-12, probably moreso on my ears!
