    Ipod classic - rockbox - its happening.

    Quote:   That's my only grumble really. Is this likely to be 'fixed' at any point or is it not possible / not being worked on? zeitfliesst, a a temporary alternative, I bought a cheap FM Transmitter on eBay that plugs into the 9v socket in my car and has a 3.5mm cable that connects to...

    Ipod classic - rockbox - its happening.

      I have a playlist that's 25'000 in size ... it's a dynamic playlist of all my music shuffled. That way I cycle through a good chunk of my music and surprise myself with some long forgotten gems.   Of course, the flip side is I sometimes have to skip about 30 tracks in a row to get to a...

    Ipod classic - rockbox - its happening.

    I don't want to spam this thread with an irrelevant query - and I think this is relevant as I've read through all (so far) 47 pages. I wondered if someone could give me any advice regards iPod accessories for an iPod Classic 160gb (older, fat version) using Rockbox.   I've currently got...

    Thanks for the reply ninjikiran, So with your comment:   Quote: and earlier comment:   Quote:   So......Delta Sigma based DAC's such as the D1 reclock, BUT according to attenuated 3db's assertion   Quote:     ....the D1 DOESN'T reclock. I'm confused ...

    Sorry ninjikiran - you lost me  lol   If you can dumb-it-down that'd help  - in essence, are you saying that the D1 is an R-2R based design and as such would need something like attenuated 3db's Teralink X2 to reclock the jitter from the Airport Express (Optical) which might alter (improve)...

    Following middachten's post above, I've ordered an OP249. Should have it in a week or so. I'll post how this goes and maybe a follow up post with the OpAmps and Tube combinations I have for reference.   Anyway, regards JITTER and the TubeMagic I've read a few posts on other forums...

    I recently bought a tube on eBay but I don't know what it is - in terms of manufacturer / quality / rarity etc - I can't seem to find it listed anywhere. Sounds good though! - Very warm and silky smooth treble.   Anyone have any ideas? I tried to attach a picture but got a message back...

    Hi Guys,   I've so far swapped the stock chinese tube for 1x cryogenically frozen Russian 6N3P (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CRYO-SUPER-LIFE-6N3P-E-Hi-Fi-AUDIO-TUBE-2C51-5670-/300353336777?pt=UK_Consumer_VintageAudio_RL&hash=item45ee7435c9#ht_4674wt_1334). The seller said it was up there with the...

    Anyone know the difference between LME49720NA and LME49720HA. I can source an 'NA' one in the UK cheaply, but am struggling to find a HA - is there a sonic difference? Similarly, is the OPA2107 sonically the same as the OPA627 - again I've read a few things on these forums but don't really...

    Quote: That would be fine. Since the D1 has a 0.25 inline fuse then any power cord / fuse combination should work fine. I had an old IEC cable with 13A fuse and it works a charm for me!

    Quote:   Actually I use my Receiver for a lot more than stereo music - I watch films and TV through it so not a total waste  It's just for music I prefer a nice warm stereo sound, but don't have space/money for a stereo amp - not without getting rid of my movie surround sound!   I...

    WOW, I've just looked at the OPA627 here in the UK. It seems to be upwards of £25 ($40). I've found two OPA627's and am not sure of the difference between the AP and BP suffixes (except one is more money).   http://uk.farnell.com/jsp/displayProduct.jsp?sku=1212318&CMP=e-2072-00001000...
