I was just told, so for those who think that the 3.5mm mini to mini interconnect is what I am going to be using with that iPod, it's not (just temporary). I am going to get a new source soon enough(hopefully a C3), and I also have a Clip+ at the moment which I am going to hook up with that setup (not using the iPod anymore due to space limitation).

The new FiiO E12 might fit your bill better for home use, if you don't mind not having a dac included. Nice Rig, though.

How can you recommend the E12 when no one has heard it yet? I love FiiO and I bet it's a winner, but at this point, no one knows...

There are 20 units that are in the mail now for the lucky pre-order recipients. For the rest, it will probably be end of Feb. or March.

I don't think the E12 has a DAC....it's just a powerful amp.

You're right, typo on my part from my original post. Was thinking, "not having a dac included", fixed. Thanks for the catch and yes the E12 is only an amp.
Quote:
That's why I said may, because I don't know... I was going of the assumption that it would suit his needs better than the E11 would for a home rig better because the output power is much greater. He wanted to start building a "home rig" and mentioned both E11 and E17 both of which are small amps and the E17 being a Amp/Dac. I'm not saying it will be good, bad, or anything... I simply said that the E12 should be consider as he said "in the process" which means considering options. I was stating that the E12 is a potential option in the near future, that is all.
