My Ultimate Portable setup: UE11, iMOD V-Cap, TTVJ Millett!, Microbag!
I really don't know which section is the most appropriate for this post. Moderator, please freely move my post to a more suitable section.
Anyhow, I thought I would like to post my ultimate portable gear. I find my current portable setup has great TUBE sound yet it's still in a portable package.
1 Headroom Portable Microbag(Still have plenty of room to store UE11)
2 iMOD 80GB 5.5G
3 Portable V-CAP(Oh! What a Cap! Exceptionally Musical)
4 TTVJ Portable Millett Hybrid Amp(Oh! What a tube amp!!)
5 Ultimate Ears 11 Pro(Oh! What a BIG SOUND!EXCITING!)
Big Picture Slow Server Sorry.

Wow that a pretty hardcore setup.
Yeah, you should post this in the "Pictures of Your Portable Rig" thread in the portable audio section.

www.v-cap.com
V-cap is making the sound more 3 Dimensional, better depth, with texture, and airy floaty. The midrange becomes much sweeter highly emotional. The sound is very articulate, It's got those swinging, pull and push kinda sound. Sorry I don't know the proper way to describe it.
between iPOD and VCap. it's like the comparing the same person singing. One is singing without any emotion flat, and the other one could give you a goose bump. you should be able to tell something easier about how the singer feels.
V-Cap = High Musicality with Emotions!
There are plenty of articles just type Vcap or V-cap or V-Dock in the search bar.

Oh my, you already own a UE-11Pro, you'd better go to any headfi meet and have a listen to Vcap setup with your UE-11Pro, better yet with TTVJ Millett. You will be glad you did. Not your wallet though. hehe.

Yeah my wallet does not thank my anymore. I picked up my whole setup that I now run within 2 weeks. Think it came in around 2k. Defently want to check out a vcap setup.I love how the ue-11 sound out of the Tomahawk and my 160gb classic.

That is a large rig. I believe this might fit better in the portable section, but wow. Does it not get how with the millet though?

Might be the white balance in the pic, but looks like your UE11 cable is starting to turn green?
