cn11 or vlach ? If you are referring to the cable between the uHA-6 and iPod Touch on this page, thats an iBasso CB06:

I have one, but I cant say that the sonics are any better with my sources/amps than a cheaper cable like this:

(Doh - the cable in the photo is actual the LOD version of my cable:

and iBasso call that the 'CB07')

My question was to cn11.... (thank you, though, for the reply!)
 
On page 2 of this thread there is a nice sturdy looking set of cables, with what looks to be a woven fabric covering.

OK - my mistake.

Ah, hey there, sorry I missed your question for a bit....
 
The line out cable is this one, purchased on Ebay from a maker in Hong Kong:

The cable on my Ultrasones is a DIY cable by a member here who used to have a business doing that... but unfortunately he's not making cables for order anymore.

To anyone,
Which amp has more output power, the Just Audio uHA-120, or the iBasso Warbler P4 (when plugged into the wall, and running on battery power) ? 
 
Admittedly, I am unsure how to interpret the specs;

I use DT770 Pro 80 headphones, and currently own the P4, and am considering an amp with more power and detailed resolution.
 
thank you.

As one of the few here who has actually owned both amps, I know the answer to this question, but I'll leave it to cn11 to answer for you.

Heh, unfortunately I don't own the P4 Warbler.... I'm sure the uHA-120 prevailed though.

Let me just say this - I will buy another P4 before Jan 30, 2012.

To estreeter,
Please provide a comparison of the iBasso P4 with Just Audio's uHA-120.  I am also considering Just Audio's aHa-120.
 
I just have not had much success trying to roll opamps in the P4, physically it is very difficult for me to do, maybe my fingers are too big to get into the small areas.  It tooke me hours to et back to the original setup.
 
the P4 is not powerful enough for me, I want to use them to drive my home-based cans (770 Pro 80), not only my little cheap sansa earphones (until I find a good VFM earphone.)

I'll make it easy for you - invest in the Matrix M-Stage or another home amp. Seriously - you just shouldnt be trying to drive big Beyers with small amps, no matter what you may have read about the Stepdance or whatever. The P4 is the most powerful portable amp I have owned, but the instant I plugged my AD900s into the E9, I knew I was dealing with a whole other universe - its about a lot more than volume.

Spot on.  As the ladies say, size does matter.

Hey, I didnt say I *like* accepting that reality, and I am still dead keen on finding a mains-powered amp with the same form factor as the Apex Butte.

I still want to write a comparison with the iBasso P4, but right now I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of my EHP-02. So many amps, so few bucks.

Mine's been out on loan to multiple HF'ers for a good while, so I haven't gotten to listen to it for some time. But I think Mike has nailed just about everything on the amp in his review. 
 
Glad to see that gem of an amp getting some in-depth attention.
