edited December 2013 in For Sale (FS) Classifieds
Up next is the headphone amp I purchased specifically for my minicomputer build. It is an Audio GD NFB-5. It has inputs for optical, coaxial and USB. The RCA outputs can be fixed or variable. That means this unit can be used as a digital pre-amp however it lacks a volume knob. Currently the jumper is set at variable and the jumper pin is taped to the inside top of the case. I used it with my Beyerdynamic DT-770's and it works great.

The unit can handle 24/196 IIRC. I have slideshow of the spec's for the unit here. Asking 275 OBO + shipping via PayPal gift. Otherwise add 3%. Also willing to deal with a money order, or if I know you, a check.

    OK folks, I might be a bit overpriced. So here's me being nice. Price drop to 250 plus shipping, I will eat the PayPal fee's.

    Some additional info:

    This unit decodes 24/96 over USB and 24/192 over coaxial. I also have some other chips for the unit to allow OP amp switching. I dont really know squat about that stuff so I never messed with it. A nice thread at head-fi on this unit can be found here. You will find individual reviews as well as links to threads about the unit. An additional quick blurb with some pics can be found here


    Here are those parts:

    Bump.

    Someone's gotta need a amp/dac unit? This baby does 24/192 over coaxial and IIRC USB. Works as a pre-amp with variable RCA outs, as a pure DAC with fixed RCA outs, has a built in headphone amp.

    It can connect up to 3 sources (USB, Coaxial and Optical) at once....
