Quote:   Bingo. On the go, ER4P with my iPhone 4S is good. At home with the iPhone line out into a PPA and the ER4P, it is utterly sublime. Had this set up for years and it is so close to perfect that I just don't see a need to change.

Arrived with ER6 that I learned about from headroom. After: ER4P (with S adapter) META42 PPA Now contemplating something other than canalphones...

You'll love this gadbet. I have the old, which doesn't have wireless, but it works extremely well with the wired connection. Once you rip all your CD's, they are all just -there- anytime you like. I think this is miles ahead of the "airtunes" that Apple just released. The slimp3 also support...

MisterX built me a ppa and I am in heaven. Longer review later, but: This has relegated my very nice META42 to my desk drawer and for travel. Unbelievable. Light, airy, open, fast, huge soundstage. All listening is ER4P/S. This amp makes me appreciate the ER4S a lot more. The P/S...

Looks like there are multiple PPA builders now. Looks like I can almost afford one. Who built yours and how do you like it? I'm happy with my META42 (Thanks again Kurt!) but want to take it up to the next level. Main and only phones are the ER4P, with S adapter for variety. Comments...

Quote: Originally posted by blessingx Thanks. I hadn't realized they introduced a new version. Saw them at a Macworld a couple years ago. Nice to have options for Windows, OS X, Linux. My one question is I wonder why they still require transcoding from AAC and Ogg to MP3 for playback...

I've had a "slimp3" music server for some time and I love it. The folks at slim devices have raised the bar on their music server: Wireless connectivity Digital output Headphone connection! I am impressed that the device is just $299, and the look is getting more professional. I have...

You might look at this http://www4.head-fi.org/forums/showt...light=ipod+car The way this was done it is an either/or situation between the iPod and the CD changer, but perhaps the urls will give you pointers to dual use solutions. Personally, I'll take the ipod over the cd changer anytime.

It works! I got the CD changer cable, and an RCA>mini Y adapter, and then also needed some RCA extender cables, but the 10 gig iPod works in the car. I ended up having the boys at Circuit City do the install ($63) and when I saw how they had to take the console apart, I was pleased to have spent...

Could you give some details on the spec for you META? I did the same upgrade from a TAH to a KurtW META (AD8620, double buffers) and I was **astonished** by how much better it sounded. All my listening is via ER4P, except occasional use of the ER6.

Well, I've tried an FM transmitter before, the "iRock", which is probably the worst one of the available choices and it was just -awful-, so I am determned to do better than that. BTW, both the cable solution and the FM transmitter approach also let you play DVD's on a laptop and get the...

Quote: Originally posted by Voodoochile [B]Thanks charles! I rip at pretty high rates myself, so not too worried about that. Are the analog outs pretty decent? I notice that the audiotron does have a spdif out, which might be nice. Of course, maybe I could do some chip rolling in the...
