OK. Thank you.
They can be grounded but they don't need to be grounded....

Hi Andy,Once again, please DO NOT use phone output of desktop headphone amplifier as source to C9 Pre-amp input mode. We must remember the basic different between pre-amp output and phone output. Pre-amp output is by definition voltage gain without current gain. You likely will end up with a lot of background noise or even distortion if you use high-power phone output here.
I'll quote my own explanation regarding Phone out as Pre-out:
In other word, only DAP phone output with relatively "smaller" current gain can be used as a substitution to Pre-amp input. If some of the DAP phone output are consider too beefy for this application, then we can almost certain that the phone out of desktop headphone amplifier is not going to work.
It will start out with “sound differences shielded vs non shielded interconnects”.OK. Thank you.

Uhm, come to think of it, wouldn't that be "double amp-ing"?Hmm so you have the C9 and the HA-6A.. You just need the HA300 and you'll have caught them all (for the moment)...
CONSPIRACIES!!Wander what will be his next step after that? Buy a pair of speaker to fully utilize the HA-300, and then start to explore our tube speaker amplifiers?
Damn that's nice. You built this?Talk about End game interconnects. This is end game for a friend ! Length is about 0.5m with TOTL OCC silver inner core Ultra Pure Gold plating Litz 37x Core for a total 26Awg per element. Hakugei Titanium Copper Alloy Plugs
Why “End game” ? Because C9 is totally “End Game” portable amplifier IMO
Thank you , and yes sir!Damn that's nice. You built this?
Adaptable ends 2.5mm to 4.4mm
Sooo... will this improve my sp2000 with iems?
I'm sure it's been discussed here plenty of times, but I swear I used search and didn't find a good clear answer. I've had my sp2000 for a year now but I'm always looking to squeeze more SQ out of my chain -- and, also, I love stacks! I used to have a stack back in 2013 when I started with hifi (cayin c5 / fiio x3 -- loved that c5!) so I'm nostalgic to look like a mad scientist again...
But the question is: will it improve on the sp2000 soundstage and detail? Any sp2000 owners out there ready to share impressions?
I believe @KickAssChewGum is the first user of SP2000 and C9 here, and he reports a significant improvement. I quote him:Sooo... will this improve my sp2000 with iems?
