Awesome deal....anybody coming from the US?

Has anybody actually heard it? Mixed reviews online...

would this be sufficient for a bedroom system with say an aviano 2?

More information regarding this type of amplifier here

It is logical for wadias 151's to be reduced in price from 800 to 500 as nuforce at 549 was a clear cut choice with near exact same specs for 300 usd cheaper.

Well, I for one would seriously like to hear both products ...it is said that they are good for a small bedroom setup but with decently efficient speakers, 50W should be enough for a decent size room.....And I want to hear what exactly is the sound of digital amplifiers ...

I almost pulled the trigger yesterday evening but found out that the Wadia could not be used just a DAC incase the amplification is not satisfactory...

Really looking forward to hearing both the Nuforce and the Wadia

There is conflicting information online about the wadia

some websites claim wadia said its 25w 8ohms 50w 4ohms, while on other websites it laims 50w 8ohms 75w 4 ohms.

I don't know whats the deal with this conflicting information across the internet.

Someone needs to do a comparison of

Nuforce DDA-100
Wadia 151
