Ipod Touch 2nd gen. Suggestions needed...

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
Currently have 3rd generation ipod and was going to purchased an 8gb 2nd generation Ipod Touch from my sister for $100. Discovering that my LOD will not work with the Touch, so I'm looking for suggestions for a few things:


1. I need a LOD for this. Probably use it with my Govibe amp. The Fiio E1 looks interesting though, may try that.

2. I need a case too. The Switch Easy brand looks cool, but It seem that the line out and the headphone jack holes are small so it would limit what LOD or phones I could use. Do I really need a case or should I go with one of the invisible shield type protector? They look like those would not interfere with the line out of head phone jack.

thanks for the help

Fiio E1 is amp.... not LOD...
the amp is built-in inside the connector

You're right. I knew that. I was thinking this option at first and obviously I wouldn't use the govibe, but since I have the govibe I figured it might be a better idea to just get a LOD that worked with the Touch.

The Fiio E1 looks tempting too, since the connector looks like the design is similar to the provided cable that comes with the Touch, so I'm assuming it would be able to fit and work with any case I purchased.

Make sure that the LOD you get can be used with the 2nd gen Touch...some will not, as you know. they can be bought cheaply off of ebay.
I have a leather slip case for my iPod touch, which leave perfect access to the line out, and headphone jack. Check your local electronics store. they are plentiful.
