oh, it works!!

I'm finally getting around to modding me 5Gen Video. I was wondering, looking at the tutorials for it, if I were to put the caps on the inside, where/what do i solder them to?

would it be like this? also, i've heard that removing the caps/inductors doesn't do too much. should or should it not be removed?

If you want to internalize the caps, use gueri_fr's method. No one else has come up with a method to do internal caps for the dock besides using the compact flash adapter and BlackGates.



Don't take out the inductors and Z caps. Solder directly to their pads. They make for stronger connections.

Okay. Does removing the Zcaps actually make for better sound? Also I mean, could i get a diagram on how i wire the caps to the ipod? Like where do the positive/ negative leads on the caps hook up the wires?

Removing the Z caps won't improve the signal. The positive lead of the cap goes to the Wolfson, and the negative lead goes to the dock or audio jack. I don't have a diagram off-hand, but there are a few in this thread.

I want to use 3,5mm plugs as lineout interconnect, I know imod 4g does that, but is it possible with 5/5,5gen ipod?

You can send the signal wherever you can run a wire - connect the top connections to the connections on the 3.5mm plug. I think (not been inside an ipod for a while...) there are pins connecting the normal socket to the ribbon cable so you could attach to them, if not you'd need to find a replacement socket.

Good luck!

(I solder internal caps on 5g/5.5g only)

Would this ALO adapter work with a 5G diymod?

ALO Audio



Wouldn't mind something like this for hooking up my diymod to a desktop amp.

Sure, just can't imagine wanting to pay that much for markup.
