I'm leaving in January to spend 6 weeks in Italy and want to have something very portable to go with my iPod 5G and Shure E3s. (I might upgrade those as well to E4 or ER4). I already have the MicroStack with desktop module for my non-portable setup, so I am interested in portability (=small size, low weight, long battery life).
I have done lots of reading on here, but there isn't a lot of discussion of the pros and cons of real on-the-road use of these.
I am interested in the Go-Vibe5, but have read that the power supply really helps it out. I'm going to be on batteries exclusively, so how would that be? How portable is it?
I think a natural choice might be the Xin SuperMicro or Little Dot Micro, but I am not sure if I could get one before we leave on Jan 7th. What do you think?
I thought about breaking the bank and getting a Hornet. How is the weight and battery life on that one? The new Tomahawk is taunting me as well. I'd probably rather not go that expensive.
Thanks for any help.
