Where can I get a basic low cost 3rd Gen Nano LOD to connect to an amp in the USA?

 

Are all pin configurations same from gen to gen so it will fit all Nano's?

 

Thanks!

A little warning: I bought the same exact LOD for use with my ipod touch but it is deafeningly loud. I dont whats causing this but its probably because of this LOD. But if you decide to buy it, can you please PM me if its listenable or not? Thank you in advance and sorry for my english.

 

EDIT:

Ps: If you wondering how loud it is, check out my video on this thread. You need to scroll down for a bit.

They're all "loud". You're supposed to hook it up to a portable amplifier, not just plug the headphones into it. The amp controls the volume so you can have better SQ and listen at whatever volume you want.

Says for Iphone and ITouch.  Will it work with a 3G nano?  Aren't all the Ipod line out pin configurations the same?

Also, avoid ALO's overpriced cables.  Unless you like to throw money away.

I know, if you take look at my thread you will see that I am using it through an Ibasso P3+ amplifier. Even if I turn the volume all the way down, it is still deafeningly loud.

Ah alright, I see what you mean. I guess the amp is just too powerful for whatever headphones you are using it with.
