Hi all,

not very versed in this kinda stuff - but im thinking of buying an ipod speaker system - either the Audica MPS-1 or the Klipsch iGroove SXT and i was wondering if i connected my ipod via my RSA Tomahawk portable amp - would there be any improvement of sound or maybe expand the quality somehow (have the amp take the brunt of the volume and have the speaker system set at 50-70%).

If that makes any sense.

Any advice/tips or general knowledge appreciated.

I dont think its a very good idea; sorry, in this way IMO all you are going to do is colour the sound, not improve it as the ipod docking speakers normally use the line-out signal anyway, so all you are doing is putting the signal through an unnecessary link in the chain. adding distortion that doesnt need to be there. if those speakers dont use the line-out signal and instead use the HP out, maybe there would be a small improvement. maybe
