I'm thinking of purchasing an ipod and use a portable amp through the line out, I'm wondering how long will the ipod battery last using the line out with an amp.
Thanks
Thanks

I'm not sure about all this bypassing internal amp business, and also how much of a difference it really makes. I've run an A-B switch test of the 3G iPod Line Out vs the headphone out driving a pair of HD650's and there were no appreciable differences. |
