Ok, here is my system at the moment;
iPod Video 5.0 [30GB]. All my CD's are encoded as AAC's @ 320 KBps [with a few MP3 exceptions].
Sennheiser CX300.
I also have a TURBOdock V, to get line out from the iPod to my stereo.

Suppose I were to buy TURBO's mini->mini cable, and a Portaphile X3.

With my system like that, what do you think the weakest link would be, and how badly would it hold back the rest of the system?

Personally I think it'd be the headphones, followed by the compressed audio. And I don't think it would cause much of any trouble. But I'm fairly new to portable audio, and was wanted to know what you guys thought.

Thanks for any help.

Yeah, I would say the headphones. Get some new cans and an amp and you should be good to go. I dont think there is that much of a difference between CD and 320kbps compressed. Some people will say they can tell the difference but with your current rig, you probably wont. Just my 2 ohms
