I recently bought an Ipod Gen 5 30 GB off a friend for $50. It is in good condition. However, being an owner of a Sony NWZ-A816, I realized that the sound quality of the Headphone out on the Ipod was audibly inferior to the headphone out on the Sony.
The 30 GB of storage is definitely useful for me, as I have about 24 GB of music ranging from v2/192 to v0/320. But the inferior sound quality nags me a bit.
So I have a question to those with this setup or those who have experienced it.
Does the ipod gen 5 rockboxed + LOD + Fiio E5 synergize well and how much better does it sound compared to the headphone out? I want to keep this setup pocket-friendly, both in regards to my wallet and my actual pocket.
I'll be using my AKG k81dj with this set up, and maybe yuins in the future.
Also, with Line-out, I can have the sound (through the spin wheel) off, right? Doesn't the Line-out have its own volume?
Thanks for any input.
