      Very straightforward and incredibly helpful.  I'd expect nothing less from someone engaged in this thread and in the Head-Fi community.  Thanks Dr.!     Any EQ advice to achieve a nice powerful bass delivery?  I've tried messing with the q values and the filters and stuff and I've seemed to...

    Hello everyone.   I am a proud owner of an iPod Video 5.5 Gen and I have a few questions that I don't believe have been asked before.   One thing I'd Like to find out; Is there an external LOD amp that allows charging of the iPod when in use?  Which external amps provide the strongest bass...

    I am planning on doing an upgrade when I save up for it.  Some of us are broke college kids and can't afford doing these things on a whim.

    Does anybody know if Rockbox will run more smoothly with a different allocation unit size when formatting an original iPod hdd (to exfat)?

    Quote: I actually batch removed all my embedded album art on the device and used a utility to convert them to 240px bitmaps.  Works great now!  My ridiculously sized cover images were slowing it down.

    Just rockboxed my iPod video 5.5 today and I can definitely see why upgrading to an SSD is a priority.  Can't even get smooth playback using it.  Even the OF (original firmware) on the iPod is alot faster than RB.  Anyone else encounter this?

      It's listed at $450.  So I guess I'll have to stick with the old style 240gb spinning PATA drive if I want a reasonably affordable option.  The only downside to these is the lag, correct?

    Thanks.  So you successfully installed which CF card?  The Lexar is much cheaper.

    Which one would this be?  I looked in previous pages, but didn't find any links.

    What would be the cheapest 256gb compact flash card available that is completely compatible (with 5.5 video)?  Seems to be the wisest choice to invest a few extra dollars in a CF.

    Some users reported a loss in quality when using sdxc.  Would I notice this playing 320kbps mp3's?

    How would I go about using a pair?  Is there an adapter that would enable me to use two at a time?

    That sucks.  Thought I found an affordable option.
