Good to hear it, Russ. I found them, but I didn't get the 100 ohm resistance you found. From line out to striped end of the capacitors, I found continuity. That makes it one of the easier soldering jobs, considering the dock inductors are sitting right next to those caps. Remove caps C53/C54, remove inductors L7/L8, then remove caps C69/C70. Good stuff.

Are those caps to be removed in the 5.5diymod as well?

I don't use the USB or charger when playing as I think the power is quite dirty, it runs much quieter off the battery.
I did another with Blackgates and bypass silver mica's.... not sure which is best at the moment. The films have better control of the bass but the midrange/highs are a little muddy.... The BG's are bright but that's as expected... need burn-in.

no_eye_dear, you have some really good photography! I loved that photo of the dock inductors so much I put it on the OP. It demands my eyes' attention. What caps are those in this dock? Or is this the dock with the steel base that you removed for photos? Simply stunning. Keep up the good work!

From my part (I don't really know if it's the good terms in english!), I received my new ipod video 30gb and I installed Rockbox :-)
I'm probably going to buy a defected ipod motherboard to see if I am capable to do imod myself with success. Wait and see...
Hi Chaps,
joneeboi... an honour sir.... I'm on the OP
This is the other dock that I haven't put a plate on, those films are starting to open up, been burning for several days now. The films are specials from our 'Aladin's cave' @ work, so is the silver wire, we have some nice kit! Things you can't buy off the shelf
The theme is Marquee James, you can customise it as you please, I love Rockbox if only because I can play FLAC
gueri_fr... your English is absolutely fine

I gotta get me one of those workplaces. What kind of caps are you using, no_eye_dear? I can't identify them from the photo.
Something I often wonder is how many people that are following the thread have done the diyMod but haven't chimed in yet. We've got 44k+ views, and I'm guessing most of those folks are of the DIY-ing type capable of doing the mod themselves. If you have, please let us know you've diyModded your iPod so we can share in your joy! Share the good news, share pictures, share struggles and triumphs, share it all.
