Ok DrSheep, now I know what to use for my flac to m4a conversions, thanks. 16/48 it will be.

Why convert?  Just get the FLAC player and let it do the work, unless you need to save space.

Because I will use an iPod classic with a PHA-1 in the future, and can't install a flac player there I guess. I have it rockboxed, but rockbox doesn't talk with the PHA-1, afaik. So need to go back to original fw.

if you have an ipod touch or iphone there are many flac playing apps. I use flacplayer app.

Ok, thanks...

But if I understand correctly the iPod will resample anything above 48khz/16bit to 48khz/16bit right?

So it has no use, imho, to feed flac players anything above that, so my guess is that i might as well resample any flacs that have higher frequencies and bit rates to appropriate alacs.

While i am at it anyway.

So i can fill my classic (with future PHA-1) and touch (with E01 or iBasso D-0) with the same files.

I guess.......

Updated the list.

Sorry I couldn't find a clear answer from this thread....
 
Does the Sony PHA work as an external DAC/AMP for the iPod Classic?

 

[DrSheep]

Yes.

 

[329161]

Yes.

Cool, thanks.
 
The PHA 1 has come down in price so I might take the plunge.

What on earth are you talking about? All MFI DAC/AMP works with any iDevice out of the box with 30 pin or Lightning cable.

Does this include the ipod Classic? I ask because it's not IOS.
 
Also, is this Apogee interface compatible with the Classic?

Sorry to keep asking, but there aren't many choices out there, and I don't want to make a mistake.
 
Thanks.

That I have no idea but classic should work.

Well. I got my hands on a Fostex HP-P1 and i am looking for a short cable. Any recommendations would help.
