My 4g IMOD is not the primary source, but when I'm working around the house and just want to have some tunes flowing, I throw it on shuffle for the 2600 or so songs I have on it and it sounds great flowing through my system. Not better than my vinyl, but damn close to my Denon 3910, which is a...

Great review. And yes, a great amp, which I have proudly owned for over 2 years. And by the way, it is also a terrific preamp which I use with Steve's Taboo amp. Decware makes very good stuff.

Decware makes a terrific triode preamp, the CSP2, which I own. It also is a very nice headphone amp. And Single Power headphone amps make very good pre's. When another pre that I was using at the time went under, I used my PPX3 as a pre in my system with great results.
