Then it's probable that when it comes to the DAC, the 6g is for all intents and purposes identical to the 5.5g. That's what I suspected too. I can't imagine them improving the headphone out and then cheaping out on the DAC. That makes no sense. Well, that tells me what to use my $100 iPhone credit on.

See ya
