原文如此:
It was through this ¼" plug that I first sampled the NX-33 as the balanced headphones had not arrived yet. To tell the truth, it was not love at first listen. Even though it was already broken in, compared to the Musical Fidelity Xcan, the NX-33 had less dynamic contrast, was less detailed and had a hard time extracting bass notes from the single-ended AKG K701. It sounded flat and dull overall. I have since learned to appreciate the subtle nuances the NX-33 is capable of and which the X-can has no idea even exist. Overall however, I stand by my first impression. Using the NX-33 single-endedly is just wasting $1200. Half that amount can bring as much if not more to the table (and I am sure that Rudi's SE amps would do that just fine as well). Until you have tried the NX-33 balanced, you won't have any idea of what it is really capable.
When I finally plugged in the balanced AKGs, it did not take very long before I realized I was dealing with a different amplifier of the same smooth signature sound but now energized and dynamic. The first thing I noticed was its silence. Blacks were darker than the night. This amplifier has no hum, hiss, noise, static, nothing at all. I thought the Xcan was fairly silent but in operation, the Rudistor proved to be simply free of any noise, the direct benefit of which was that details rose effortlessly over this dark background.
因为平衡版的耳机还没有到,第一次试NX33用的是1/4"插头。说实话,一耳听上去就不喜欢。尽管这个耳放已经烧透,比起音乐传真Xcan,NX33从单端的AKG701出来动态对比更小,细节更少,低音的传递更困难。总的听感平淡乏味。这以后我慢慢学会了欣赏NX33所能够提供的的精微之处,这种精微之处在Xcan那里是根本不存在的。然而,总的来说,我仍然坚持自己的第一印象。使用NX33的单端是白白浪费了$1200. 一半的钱就可以带来同样的效果,即使不是更多(而且我确信Rudi的SE放大器会做得一样好)。除非试过NX33的平衡,你不会对这个耳放所真正能够做到的有所理解。
终于把平衡版的AKG插进了NX33,没过多久我就认识到面对的是一个不同的放大器,有着同样平滑的特点的声音,但此刻能量化了动态化了。我首先注意到的是这个耳放的安静。比黑夜还要更黑。 这个放大器没有嗡嗡声、咝咝声、噪杂声、静电声,一切都没有。我认为Xcan是相当安静的,但在使用NX33中,这个耳放证明根本没有任何杂音,由此产生的直接好处表现为,在这个黑的背景上音乐的细节毫不费力地浮现了上来。
