I am really hoping that is a full 6.35mm jack on there, I hate having to use my adapters because of the potential for poor connection.

If you're referring to the NFB-12, yes it has a full 6.35mm jack.

Is there any disadvantages of purchasing it from Pacific Valve vs direct from Audio-GD? 

After searching through the thread and only finding a handful of posts on it. Price seems to end up being the same and the lack of hassle of shipping from/to China seems pretty good.

Anyone try this with low impedance iems? Thinking of trying it out with my JH16's, wondering if its worth it?

hmmm, I am pretty sure Pacific Valve did not carry it when I ordered last. Either they are lying with the 2-3 weeks shipping, or, well, I am an idiot and am stuck waiting when I could have gotten it weeks ago.

Mine finally arrived.
Departed Saturday morning frmn Hong Kong, landed in my hands on Monday morning.
Great construction, soild feeling, no problems at all connecting to netbook with Win7+foobar+wasapi.
Works extremely well with Ultrasone PL 2500, although i think it needs more burning in.
But the real wooooooow was using nfb12 with my kef iq30 and Trends Audio t-class amplifier. Awsome clarity along the whole fequency range, bass improvement, magic soundstage. The loudspeakers literally disappear. 
Strongly recommended

I emailed them and they said mine wasn't going to be shipped until about a month....Not sure what to do now. If i get refund I'm going to lose a quite a bit since the AUD has gone a lot higher since my purchase. I would get the FUN but apparently its the same sound quality for 200 extra...My headphones are collecting dust at the moment.

exactly. my headphone is collecting dust too, and this will be my first dac+amp so i couldn't wait to test it out!

if i would have to wait for another month, that will be almost 3 months of waiting. hopefully it is worth the wait .

pardon me for my english.

I have a new 2a3 integrated amp with multiple inputs driving a pair of Zu's. I A/B'ed the NFB-12 connected via coax output from a high end tubed CDP against the analog connection between the amp and player and can tell no audible difference. In other words the NFB-12 DAC sounds as good as the tubed output DAC of the $800 player. So with the NFB-12 you won't need a high end player and as long as you've got a decent transport you're good to go.

Mine shipped yesterday (19th Apr'). Ordered mine on 31st Jan'. Can't wait to have it in hands.

Hi!
I also got mine shipped yesterday.
 
It will be both fun and very intresting to compare the NFB-12 against the NFB-11. I am very pleased with the -11.
 
By the way. I am using my Sennheiser HD650 with a homemade single-end-cable. I have done a research and came up with that the coax-cable I am using is a RG-178 Ag.
 
The result is fantastic.
