    The Apple diyMod: My Take on the Famous iMod [56k killer] Featuring 3G, 4G, 5G and nano 1G!

    Hi! Some news about my CF-modded diyMod iPod. It works well. I use it with the Pico headphone amp (very nice little amp). I made my new dock cable with mogami wires. I used a electrical clamp to fix the wires on the dock connector. The connector and the clamp are glued together so the wires...

    HeadAmp Pico Portable Amp (w/ optional upsampling 24/96 USB DAC) Pre-Order Thread

    After a first burn in period, my impressions are very very good. The Pico is neutral and powerful. This amp is very detailed and the instruments are very well defined. The bass is WOW! For the size and the amazing sound, the Pico is PERFECT for me.

    I have number #333. My Pico was blocked at the french customs service. I have retrieved my Pico this morning. I haven't listened it yet! I opened the package. Damn! It's tiny and beautiful, very nice. Great job Justin. I will give my first impressions as soon as I could listen my Pico. gueri_fr

    Personally, I use a standard soldering station bought in my usual electronic reseller. Searching on the web, it's a china model Zhongdi Manufacture Co.,Ltd.. But it's good for me, I used it from time to time. The Hakko 936 looks very nice Quote: Originally Posted by no_eye_dear...

    Hi everybody. My imod is finished. Does it work? I don't really know because I'm waiting a dock cable to connect to my Xenos headamp. The ipod runs and I still can hear the music with the headphone jack so there is no damage inside. The story. At first, I wanted to use a compact flash...

    no_eye_dear, great work! From my part (I don't really know if it's the good terms in english!), I received my new ipod video 30gb and I installed Rockbox :-) I'm probably going to buy a defected ipod motherboard to see if I am capable to do imod myself with success. Wait and see... eric
