Today i've received NFB-12 (ordered 19/06/2011) )
I'm very impressed what NFB-12 doing with sound )

Received my NFB-12 today.
Been trying to get it to work but the device wont be recognized in windows 7 ultimate x64.
It appears as the following devices:
USB composite device
USB Input device
TE7022 audio w/ spdif (generic usb audio).
But when I'm trying to use the TE7022 as the playback device the only thing that comes out of the device is silence......
 
Anyone else having the same problem or at least a solution for it? : >

I also use Windows 7 x64 (but Professional) and i change:
In sound:
Playback -> TE7022 to default device (if you want only use this device to playback)
In properties of TE7022 -> supported formats -> check 44,1, 48, 96 kHz
In properties of TE7022 -> advanced -> default format -> 2 channel, 24 bit, 96 kHz
 
In foobar2000 -> Output -> TE7022 (DS, WASAPI)
Also - if you prefer - use resampler to 96 kHz (i use SoX).
 
In my case i must switch first button to HP on front panel of NFB-12

feeling kinda stupid when I realised that I hadn't ticked in the 44.1 khz in the supported formats......>.<

I ordered a second NFB-12 (for my dad), and I) just received a mail that it has been shipped.
Can't wait.

I'm going to use it for the Media PC I put downstairs. Currently it has a combination of speakers and amp costing 12,000 gilders. (5,500 euros excluding inflation, or ~8,000 dollars), however the source is a mere Realtek chipset.
Kind of imbalanced if you ask me: $8,000 versus $0.50 source.

Audio-GD said EMS is slower shipping to US and sometimes item got damaged.
 
What is your experience on EMS?
 
If it is damage when I received, how will Audio-GD handle it?
 
Thanks.

I had it shipped by EMS.
And you shouldn't worry about damage, I think chances will be low, since they pack it inside the box like this:

 
The outer box had just a bit of wear but the NFB-12 was totally fine.
Seriously the box needs to be run over by a forklift or smashed by a truck for it to get damaged..
 
And even if it gets damaged I'm sure you can talk to Edwin (or kingwa directly) and they will sort something out.

I listened to a $20,000 system that used a half-faulty $15 cd player. I wanted to find out who sold the person the system and beat him up.

Audio-gd says on their website you must contact the courier and make a claim for damage.

@.Sup:
Thanks
 
@Kevin11:
My NFB-12 shipped via DHL. Package was very well packed (traveled about 8500 km in a straight line):

Wow it shipped so fast after order was placed? So there no long wait any more to receive it?

zenki14 and Nerio,
 
Thanks for the detailed pictures.  I think either will be fine.
 
Just curious, how long does it take to ship to US (EMS or DHL)?
