I have the Ety's already. I also have a xin superdual coming eventually. What I'm wondering is whether or not I should invest in an ihp-120.
My concerns are:
a.) the fake line-out won't sound as good as the true lineout on my MZ-R50
b.) HD based players just don't sound as good as MD.
c.) the ihp-120 won't audibly benefit from good amplification.
I'm really looking for the ultimate in highly portable sound, and I don't want my source to fall short of the task. I believe that Hi-MD will sound better than MD, and I'm not averse to investing in Hi-MD, if the ihp-120 isn't gonna cut the mustard. I know about the ihp-120's un-amped sound due to a lot of reading on here, but I"ve heard very little about it amped.
I guess I'll have to go buy and try one, but I'd really like to hear some head-fiers' thoughts on this.
Thanks in advance
