    Fix my amp!!

    I guess this is the right place for this. I was considering getting an amp for my iHP-140, until I realised that I do have an old amp kicking about. Problem is, some of the soldering is broken, and I am no good at soldering at all, and as I am saving for some e2c's I guess I might as well...

    I know this has probably been discussed a million times before, but you know, search function is down and all that. But anyway, I digress. A friend of mine is looking into buying a DAP, so we sat down and worked out all the pros and cons (that mattered to him) about each of the prospective...
