What about pin-sockets for the resistors and (dont know if they make sockets that small) for the caps? I think its just the tiny caps that would prevent this. If there were ones that small, changing gain would take 5 minutes, swapping parts, and the leads could be clipped to like 1 cm and it would still be fine..

Yea those are called active speakers.

Too bad there are no iec inlets on an ipod. Ers paper could be stuffed inside tho

Maybe it will give the wood more warmth and dimension. Not to mention make it look even more luxury.

My ipod photo broke one week before the applecare expired. But they still shafted me. Dhl didn't bother to leave a note every time they delivered the empty cardboard box, and called me the day before they returned the empty paper box to apple. Of course one day's notice is just stupid so I missed it, and by the time apple apologized it was over. They offered to try to fix it, but just sending me the stupid cardboard box again to ship i to them would cost like 36 dollars. Apple was primo and a lifestyle product once. With superb support to match back in the day. It all changed in an instant. My ipod photo box was a big cube with both usb and firewire cables, a dock, a wall charging cube, a mini to rca audio/video cable, and the nice documentation and cds. Seemingly months later, it was changed to a thin box that barely holds just the ipod and the foam. Nothing included but one usb cable, no charger, nothing. Everything cost 30 dollars apiece as an accessory. It was atrocious on the desktop front too. Software updates started becoming frequent, etc. In my hand was the pinnacle of apple's golden days, when the ipod was still luxury. Sadly it was also the last example of those days. *sheds a tear* This is why I will one day imod my 4g or get a refurb modded one again. Purely sentimental reasons.

I owned a 4g imod for maybe a couple of weeks and can say that fwiw, the bass kind of improved. the 4g is my fav ipod, I believe it still looks like an ipod while the 5g is just ugly imo. It's very compatible with rockbox, everything inside is easy to replace and parts are abundant. The fact that rwa will also service it and back it up is worth it, since apple seems to have gone into the dark ages lately in terms of support. If you have money to burn, that 200 doesnt look too ugly considering what junk there is out there. People without the mod spend that much on cables and docks so...

LOL

according to many, yes Its That Good! With optimum setup, my 4g iMod can achieve stellar performance, well beyond its price point. Using the same treatment as I would a $10,000 piece in my system, it sounds like a $10,000 piece! I pamper it with the best ($350+ amplifiers, $100+ cables, and $500+ headphones) and it scales as the best! Right now I am listening to my imod with cotton dock out to sr71 driving my e500's and I tell ya its WORTH the almost grand I dropped on the setup! One day ill upgrade to this and this and Ill be able to sell my "soo called home reference quality setup" and just have musical bliss in my bag via portable ultra high end sound just like the big man!

From my experience itunes always runs more stable on my mac (much older than my pc too).

Thats great news! Oh and I think option 2 would be very useful. The dac section you describe is tops, and taking advantage of it as a great source for desktop amps is probably a key selling point too. Option three seems interesting though. Maybe more info on it? Option one doesn't really concern me because the ae2 was pretty cooperative with the really sensitive superfi5's and I don't see the need to switch to low gain...

shoulda had drew send the cable to someplace with a vidar burn in machine an have that run for like days. like omg. the qables guy has one. maybe drew should get one. maybe ray should build a burn in machine and burn in those special hornet and tomahawk cap in for "800 hours" (yes 400 no longer cuts it) so maybe the return policy would actually be valid. maybe i should get some.

way ahead of you guys

x2 pellegrino is a bit too tame. perrier is more crisp and yet drier. open a bottle of perrier then let it sit for 20 minutes. thats pellegrino and the cap makes a nice bootleg volume knob

in my tummy. come get it.
