    Modifying existing LOD for 2nd gen Touch, Question...

    Hey folks. Years ago I bought a custom LOD off a forum member, it went from my iPod Video dock connection out to RCA connectors in order to pipe it through my office headphone amp. Well, I've since upgrade. I now have a 2nd gen 32GB iPod Touch and the LOD isn't compatible with it. Changed...

    LOD makes no sense for iPhone/Touch (?)

    Sorry for the bump, but I'm still wanting to know if using an LOD on the 2G Touch bypasses the Touch's volume controls or not. If it does, isn't it safe to assume that it is bypassing the amp inside the Touch and would then benefit from external amplification? Thanks in advance, I'm getting...

    LOD makes no sense for iPhone/Touch (?)

    Does the Apple Universal Dock not equal the same as a LOD cable? I have a 2G Touch and when I have it in the dock, using a mini->RCA line-out on the back of the dock going out to my Travagan's Red amp, I cannot tell any difference in the sound, at all. In fact, it seems a little less rich and...

    Office desktop rig w/2G Touch, have setup questions...

    Well, I have my iPod 2G Touch 32Gb now, and bought an Apple Universal Dock, and have it all hooked up going out the line-out to my Travagan's Red amp and.... I really don't notice a difference. In fact, I think I'd go so far as to say it sounds better simply using the headphone out alone. On...

    Office desktop rig w/2G Touch, have setup questions...

    Hey folks, I'm currently using a 5G 60Gb ipod using a TURBO LOD out to a Travagan's Red for my office listening purposes. Sounds fine and dandy through my Denon D2000's. However, I'm looking to upgrade and I think I've settled on a 32Gb 2G Touch. What I am thinking of, since my current LOD...

    Since they are now official: Nano 4G and iPod Touch 2G Sound Quality Thread

    I saw this asked earlier, but no one ever answered and I'm wanting to know as well: Do the 4G Nanos support current LOD's? I assume it's the same connection, just wanting to make sure before purchasing. Incidentally, what about the 2G Touch, does it support LOD connections? Thanks! Looking...

    SOMEONE HAND ME A TOWEL (AH-D2000)

    Totally agree. I've had my D2000's for about 2 weeks now and I'm continually amazed, with music across all genres. I'm coming from a pair of Audio-Technica ATH-A700's, and the difference is night and day. The A700's aren't bad, but man the Denon's blow them away. Everything from Immortal to...

    Ibasso D2 Boa . . . new and smaller . . . with updates on 1st page. .

    Ok, I'm a little confused. I would want to use the Boa as an amp only, driving my ipod. Could I keep the usb plugged in continually in order to power the amp while listening to my ipod via the line-in?

    Ibasso D2 Boa . . . new and smaller . . . with updates on 1st page. .

    Man, I was all set to get a Travagan's Red to pair with my D2000's but now I'm looking at this sexy little thing and having second thoughts.... I'm going to hold off until I read all you guys' that's bought it reviews. If anyone has Denon D2000's and a Boa I'd be particularly interested in that!

    Best amp for Ultrasone Proline 750 bellow $300?

    Man that Cantate is awesome looking. I'm considering an Arietta for my future PRO-750 purchase, since I just need something for desktop use at work.

    100% iPod, in-office use: PRO-750 + Pico or what?

    Thanks for the suggestions, guys. They give me some new stuff to look at. Looks like the ALO 780's are $595, though. Still, that's within my budget. I, too, am worried about clamping pressure, particularly coming from the A700's, which are super comfortable. I'm really liking what I read about...

    100% iPod, in-office use: PRO-750 + Pico or what?

    Hey folks, I'm fairly new here. I was happily using a pair of $30 Koss Wal-Mart specials for quite some time until I stumbled into a thread about headphones, and my eyes were opened. Currently I'm using a pair of Audio Technica ATH-A700's coupled with a $45 CMoy amp that I snagged off eBay, fed...
