Yes, silver color. Mine has a 32GB CF in it, and like you were saying, it does punch out a powerful signal out of the line-out. Definitely a bit louder than the line-out of the 5.5G.

So I made some changes to my portable rig and this is what I've come up with:
iPhone 5 -> C421 -> triple fi 10

Man does that adapter look out of place. Apple you have so disappointed me with your new dock shenanigans. The new connector could have been a beautiful move if Apple wasn't run by a bunch of greedy idiots.

Never seen that cable before. Mind if I ask where you got it.

It's sold by VentureCraft in Japan. Nothing new, just USB to microUSB with the microUSB to lightning adaptor at the end then the put shrink plastic tube.
Another non IOS cable from them:

That lightning adaptor is much smaller than what Apple sells. Where to get it?

It should be possible through micro to mini USB + lightning adaptor but I'm not certain that E7 firmware will be able to get the digital data out from iphone 5 or not. My go-dap X need firmware update before it can work properly with iOS5. You can try with your lightning to USB + USB to miniUSB adaptor to E7.
If it work, those configuration should also work too.
