Nuforce V3 mod
Ptm you need a signal to get the job done and in my case i did not get better than V 2 sound till the 130 hr mark. There very listenable with a large and deep stage right out of the box. Bass is good but mids and highs need burn in edgy and flat I... 
Nuforce V3 mod
Yea Nuforce is really going to show the cards with Ref 18 and i believe that knowing there upgrade process they most likely will have some sort of trade in program for Ref 18. The improvements between V2 and V3 are very audible and worth every cen... 
Nuforce V3 mod

Wish List For Vinyl Pressings
I second the Beatles and please get it right this time for there reissues, find a way to use a tubed cutting machine if thats a possibility. That would be a dream come true. Mike 
Nuforce Ref 9 SE
