I am looking to hook up my iPod classic to an Objective 2 amp via aux 3.5 mm male to 30-pin connector. Any recommendations on what cable to get? They seem to be somewhat outdated and all I am finding online look flimsy and poorly made. I am looking for something similar to this:

Finally took my first baby steps into the audiophile world! Mine arrived yesterday and am loving them straight out of my iPod. Now on to a amp. I'm torn between a portable solid state or a tube... my heart wants tube but my logic says solid... any suggestions?

Awesome! Thank you for the help!

I stumbled on a picture of how it would look, so this would be a digital setup?

Wouldn't I connect the iPod to the amp through the 30 pin connector?

For my birthday/Christmas I am getting Sennheiser HD650's, super excited! It will be my first pair of audiophile headphones and I have a few questions on the rest of the setup. 1: I am thinking of getting the Objective2 as my amp but due to budget restrictions I can not get the DAC combo...

Awesome stuff! Anymore suggestions?

Haha, I really must have stumbled on something! I had no idea... :D Any more similar recommendations?   Hope you guys enjoy!

Going to be completely honest, I have never listened to an album like this before. I saw great reviews and decided to give it a try, my mind is blown.  

   

I have a love/hate relationship with Impending Doom, some tracks I can really feel others seem to simplistic... I had no idea they were Christian.   Listing to We As Human right now, on the lighter side but I am loving it.     Just a few nights ago I was suffering through one of those...

Wow, so much to check out! How could I have forgotten about Flyleaf, I remember seeing them at a festival and just being blown away by this little ladies awesome voice! My wife is going to love the more contemporary music for around the house, thanks so much.   Listening to Living Sacrifice...

 

My wife has recently started listening to a Christian radio station, it's not to bad but the songs do all sound very over produced and pop like. Can anyone recommend some talented, well produced religious artists? Preferably rock but anything of high quality would be great!

Down - IV Part 1 The Purple EP

Sound City Soundtrack, I just can not get enough of Stevie Nicks - You Can't Fix This.

Yep, looks like the C5 will be my choice with a Sennheiser HD 600.   Rockbox installed, transferring my files now :D

Thanks Blackened, I guess I can save money on the DAC.

Hey guys, long time lurker here!   Sorry to waist your time reading this, its time you will not get back.... but here is my reason for being here!   My earliest memories of loving music was listening to Michale Jackson and Beach Boys albums as a small child, my mom always told me I would...

I am a aspiring audiophile and own a 7th gen 160gb iPod classic. I want to install Rockbox and get a portable AMP/DAC (like a C5D) and get the highest possible quality to start my new hobby off. I do have a few questions...   1. I understand that a rockboxed iPod will add a 24/96 file, but...
