Hi, I am new to here, and I was wondering if the CMOY DIY amp is worth the time and money to drive my Grado SR80i's from an IPOD classic (Rockboxed of course!) with a line out cable. Not looking to spend much right now. Thanks!!

I got a Fiio E5 for my 60's and 125's and was amazed how much the little sucker improved the sound. They are inexpensive in cost but huge in quality. Its rechargeable, small, easy to operate, elevates the sound quality a lot all for about $20-$25 US...best deal going, great way to start.

PA2V2 sounds like a better choice.
