Default Jumbo Cryo X silver iMod dock is OMG amazing
I JUST LISTENED TO MINE LAST NIGHT AND OMG!

I have had to use $15-25 ebay dock line out lately, and I thought they were an improvement over headphone out, BUT last night I tried my new Jumbo Cryo X silver iMod dock for the first time.

I didn't have this much improvement with my mini cryo dock for non-imod, but this dock is FANTASTIC, even without an iMod yet. My Tomahawk makes so much more bass now than before, everything is smooth, and I lose nothing in return!! I may not have been convinced before, but I am now a believer...

I can't highly recommend this enough. You must run, not walk, to your computer and order one. I didn't hear nearly this kind of improvement with my Cryo'd Moon Black Dragon cable for my HD600. I'm almost afraid to hear how much better my iPod is after RWA is done with it

Whew! I feel beter with that off my chest.

No, thank you!

I wasn't expecting the change in sound with this cable - always been a little cynical about people who spend $400-$10,000 on stereo cables

Ken,

Haven't seen these since they were packaged with the iMod. Any ETA on when these will be available again?

Sorry I have been working on some other projects and had to cut back on these. I think I have some new twist on the Cryo X Silver cable though, hope to get that out soon.
