Hi. Is it possible for you to buy both of them and try it? That's what I have done. I bought E17 and then BioScienceGeeks cMoy Amp. I chose the cMoy because I prefer the sound of it (more natural sounding to my ears) compared to FIIO where in the treble seems to be a little bit excited (to my ears).

Search BioScienceGeek. His builds are pretty solid and clean.

No, your hearing is fine. The iMod or DIYMod really doesn't make any difference. From my experience, I think DIYMod or iMod are all just hype. In my opinion, most people think that they heard something different are just a result of placebo effect especially that they shelled out money and time...

This looks interesting. I have one question. You mentioned this on your page "Notice the added 47uf capacitor between AVDD2 & AGND. The will vastly improve the audio quality."   I don't see it. Can you blow it up a little bit more?

I guess maybe you are right. Probably my setup is not that revealing (poorman's setup). I am seeing some coupling caps like Elna Silmic II, is that a good capacitor compared to Blackgate? I tried to use the search function on head-fi and also can't find any threads comparing 0.47uf caps.

  Yeah, I am pretty sure and confident that I followed the instructions and the mod was done properly. Yes, I am using the JDSLabs cMoy. I think this is just a hype. Waste of money. It was fun to mod though.

Hello everyone. I have finished my diyMod. I removed the 2 Z caps near the DAC and soldered the wires there. I then soldered the other side of the wires on the 2 small circle pads below the 2 tiny capacitors. I didn't removed the 2 tiny capacitors. Is that OK? If I remove the 2 tiny capcitors...

Aside from Qables.com, where to buy dock connector for iPod? I tried searching everywhere and couldn't find one. 

Hello, I am planning to build my own iPod LOD. What size is the best cable sleeve that I should buy.   http://www.qables.com/shop/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=76_86&zenid=f21fb1703003655c3d7fbefdac70005c

Can someone recommend a good soldering iron to do the iPod Classic diyMod?

You're the man! Thank you!

  Thanks. I saw another forumer (blackmoly). This is what I was trying to find out. As you can see, I am not sure on what goes where. I :(      

Thanks FallenAngel. Let's say I want to put the BlackGate capacitors inside my iPod. Is this how they will be placed? My black gates are non-polarized. I did a quick and dirty paintbrush to show what I am trying to say. I might have to reroute the wires to the back of the ipod.    My apologies...

I would like to put the Black Gate capacitors here. Can you help me what goes where?
