I don't know about the small components, but the big ones tend to sound their best after they've been left on for a few hours in my experience.

I know a lot of folks leave their DACs on 24/7,but this unit has an amp too,so what is the advised way to use it?

Im surely not going to turn it on and wait for two hours....and dont know how wise it is to leave it powered up all the time...

A couple of hours should suffice. I wouldn't leave it on 24/7! It gets warm.

Well, I leave it on 24/7 since my last post. It should be more than 70 hrs by now and it gets hot but just bearable to touch with bear hands. Is it bad to be that hot?

It will shorten the life of some components.

Can anyone provide impressions of the DAC section vs. Chord Mojo?

I did some in the original post.

Went ahead and emailed AGD. How long does it take for them to respond,time to receive item and what payment methods do they take?

Looking forward to hearing it,and looking forward to @JoeDoe impressions of the R2R 2/C2 combo...

 

[JoeDoe]

In my experience, you get an email response within 24 hours. In my case, I was sent a PayPal invoice for payment.

Granted it's been a little while since I had a mojo, I'll try to chime in. The Mojo is no slouch, especially given its price tag, but I found it have a little bit of digital sheen up top. Not sure I have the vocabulary to explain what I mean, but to me it just did not sound as authentic or natural, especially with metallic things like cymbals. And I also agree with the general impression that the extension on the low-end is far from the best around. To my ears the AGD unit presents a much more natural treble range. I don't know if I go so far as to say they are night and day different animals, but to these ears, the AGD sounds more right and a bit more cohesive from top to bottom.

Hi guys, just wondering. Anyone here tried NFB11.28 or R2R.11 using Android TV as a source? Thanks!

Do you mean through the optical/coaxial output of your TV or the analog output of your TV.

KingWa states that a TV or console may not have enough signal for the DACs input, I could give it a try with a PS3 when I have time.

I'm sorry i didn't able to put more info..

This is what i have with my digital setup on my Stereo.. Android TV box (USB to) > Maverick Audio D2 > Tube Preamp > Power Amp..
I'm wondering if possible i could use the R2R.11 with this confirguration. Not complicated but i'm not sure enough with the design and capability of R2R..

Hope someone can try this and inform me.

Works flawlessly with PS3/4. This thing has enough power and gain so I thin it should be okay with most weaker sources as well.

Do you think it would work with this configuration?

Android TV box (USB to) > Maverick Audio D2 > Tube Preamp > Power Amp..

I used this config with my Maverick Audio D2 flawlessly. I hope i could be able to do this with R2R.11.
My Android TV box has External HD for music. Using the phone to navigate files so it would be nice if i would be able to use the R2R with this config.
I'm talking to Kingwa right now to finish the order.
