Thanks for the reply. I'll keep this amp in mind

  So... I've seen there are a lot of different opinions, but is there anyone who has listened to:
 
CHORD HUGO, CAYIN C5, Vorzuge PURE II???
 
Differences?  What is your favorite??

If money is not an issue, I guess most of us will choose Chord Hugo.
 
But I doubt the sound of Chord Hugo is 12 x better than Cayin C5.

Thanks for your input.  
 
I have a question... I have a "Rockboxed" iPod classic 7th gen. and also a RWAK-120S Titan...
 
Is there a way to use the Chord Hugo with these two sources?  Do I need to get a new source compatible with the HUGO, or must I really get the CLAS to do it??  I really don't want to add bulk to my "portable" setup...

I've noticed there are a few different options for a line-out cable for my Ipod. Any recommendations for one that I would benefit most from in sound/quality?

 

[Jmop]

Yep why? To use the Fiio L11 instead? I didn't know until now!

Would this be the best option for an Ipod line out?

Any comparisons between this and the centrance Hifi m8?

Probably not. Just get the one you like and that you'd feel good about

 

[Jmop]

I'll probably just go with a FiiO. Kinda stoked I might have to pick this thing up. That brushed black metal colored one looks niiice.

The Cayin C5 is better than the E12. The soundstage and bass is definitely tighter.

Can someone please confirm that the black version of the C5 listed on Amazon is the same as the champaign colored one everyone seems to have. It would put my mind at ease.

This I can promise, is the same. We are the products of CAYIN only in shell colordifference.

I'm sold. There's way too much good feedback for me to pass this up plus it's exactly what I'm looking for sound signature wise. Thanks again. Can't wait to hear it! 

 

[gikigill]

You won't be disappointed or I'll buy the black one off you

Looks like the C5D (C5 + DAC) is coming soon. Maybe @Thomas lbyy can tell us more about that?

Thomas did start a thread on the C5DAC a couple days back but he seems to have temporarily removed it.
