Hey guys, I know this may sound odd, but after reciving my PICO portable headphone amp, I'm wondering what the best way is to connect it to my iPhone. I got the USB DAC, so I'm wondering if I can just use a 30-pin to mini usb cable to have the pico convert the audio for me, the way my laptop can--is that possible? Otherwise, I guess I need to get a nice 30-pin to mini cable?

Thanks,
Andrew

You need the "30-pin to mini" otherwise known as an LOD

for the best connection, the 30-pin to usb wont work as that requires software.

When you connect the Pico with your iPhone, the dac of pico has nothing to do here. Only the amp section will work.
And yes, you need a LOD a.k.a 30-pin to mini cable.

What would be your suggestions for an iPhone LOD?

Check the ALO website, they have some LODs that will fit your iPhone.

Ken's new iPod LOD cables at ALO are compatible with all iPods (including 2nd gen Touch) as well as the iPhone.
