Hello guys , 
 
I'm kind of new to this stuff , and i currently have a uDAC-2 and a Grado SR80i . 
 
I was thinking of getting a AudioGD NFB12 :
"Dual WM8741 inside
Dedicated DAC +   HP/Pre amp
Dedicated DAC  variable and fixed line level 
24Bit / 96KHz USB input and 
24Bit / 192KHz Coaxial input support
Applies ACSS "
 
---
 
Just need some advice to whether it will be a worthwhile upgrade ?
Will be getting a better piece of headphones in the future so might be getting DAC first. 
 
So , any ideas? 
 
Thanks

That looks pretty nice. At that price point I might also research the Matrix M-Stage, or a decent tube hybrid amp. Fournier HTA, Little Dot III, HiFiMan EF2A. Cheers.

I had the udac2 and got a tube hybrid amp. It warmed up (in a good way) my DT990's. I have read that tubes really do wonders for the grados too. Also, the udac2 is not bad at all, I'm just saying if you want a "different" sound tubes might be the way to go.
