Hello,
I'm new here. . . so please don't flame me - ha!
I'm sure this subject is buried in this forum somewhere. . . but I ran a few different searches and couldn't find it. So. . .How important is it to have a "Line Out" over a Headphone Jack 1/8"? Specifically, I have a Sony D-FJ210 which has NO line out. I did a search within this forum for this model number and nothing came up. . so I can only assume that this is not a portable unit that audiophile's appreciate. But. . it's what I have. I liked the built in radio and remote because I can easily make adjustments while on my motorcycle.
I've ordered some Ety E6's and a portable power amp. . . now I'm wondering if these things will do any good if I don't have line out?!
BTW, I'm assuming Line out means that most of these portable CD players that you all have also have RCA line outs? Or is it some kind of digital line out that I'm REALLY ignorant about?
If I HAVE over bought headphones and an amp for a CD player with only a headphone jack (it's at the end of the remote). . . would you reccomend that I sell this unit on Ebay and buy something else (assuming it really is "the weakest link") in my new system? If so, what things should I consider for my next purchase?
Thank you,
Daniel
