Awesome, thanks SDBiotek! The Parts Express link you sent had a how-to video, and I actually think I might be able to do this myself! Robert :)

Hello -- Can someone please help me with my speaker? It's a JBL-800 that I've had since the mid-1990's, and it started buzzing. I removed the grill (glued on, thanks JBL :)) and saw this. There was all this crumbly stuff that looked like old weatherstripping lying on the bottom, and the cone...

Thanks again. I'll report back after I get it and have a go...

Thanks ProtegeManiac! I found one on eBay, will give it a try...

I have an iPod touch (6th generation) that I would like to set up for playing lossless music files (FLAC or ALAC format). I'd like to attach some sort of expanded memory or external (portable) disk drive so I can store lots of music. (It has the lightning style of connector) If anyone has a...

I'm having trouble getting quality audio at louder volumes.  I've tried two different playback chains, both sourced from the Tidal streaming site, set on HI-FI quality.  In both cases, I'm using my AKG K240 600 ohm headphones. I first tried using my iPod as the source.  If I plug the...

  Thanks for the link...very interesting!

I wonder if maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree.  Maybe, instead of looking for a portable amp that will drive my 600 ohm headphones from my iPod, I should be looking for a really good pair of low-impedance headphones so that my iPod can drive them directly?  Do such headphones exist?  Is that...

At this review of the FiiO E11 http://www.head-fi.org/t/552605/fiio-e11-impression-information-support it says, "Headphone impedance range 16 - 300 ohms".  I saw the same for the FiiO E12.  Does this mean I would need a different amp to drive 600 ohm headphones?  Any recommendations?

Is there anyone who's tried both the FiiO E11 and iQube v1 amps?  Would you recommend one over the other?  (The application I have in mind is attaching them to an iPod Touch 6 - probably has to be via the headphone jack? - to feed a pair of AKG K-240 600 ohm headphones.)

I have the same question as the OP about how to get a line out from an iPod Touch 6.  Any updates since the last posting?   I found this for the older wide connectors --  http://www.head-fi.org/a/diy-ipod-line-out-dock-pinout -- but the nothing similar for the little connector on the iPod...

Is it okay to use the headphone jack to feed the amp?   I wonder if a line-out is even available on the iPod Touch 6?  (I posted a question about that as a follow-up to another thread, since it was related:  http://www.head-fi.org/t/778914/ipod-touch-6th-generation-line-out-options#post_12149107)

Hello -- I'm new here :-)  Since the 80's I've been using my beloved Sony D-25 Discman portable CD player (for some years with a homemade external battery pack, after the original ones stopped becoming available), and I've been very happy with it, playing through my AKG K-240 headphones. ...
