note:
how about GoPod guys ? no one had response about it yet ?!
I believe it would be easy to do a gmod ourselves, just need to take the L and R channel signal from the dac, use some nice wires and hook it up to the ipod dock out (the appropriate pins of course). and put he NX-hiQ blackgates in the dock connecter.

All it is doing is bypassing the crappy stock caps and then put the blackgate in its place OUTSIDE of the ipod, i think joneeboi has the same idea, but he decide to encase the caps in a tictac box instead of the LOD
