Nano 6G

yup, i've read that. but it sounds inconclusive. and 1.9 is the exact number for iPhone 4's impedance, so maybe, you know.. i've tried to search for that "buried in this somewhere" but can't exhume it from anywhere hahaha

I take it you saw this on google as well?

ah! that's awesome! thanks batterriaziz! i'll paste it down here too so other necromancers can see it too hahaha

However, I don't use IEMs, so the output impedance isn't a big deal for me.

Could anyone help me out?
I have a 7th Generation iPod Classic that I use with JDS Labs C5 and Shure SE215. I recently paired the setup with the 6th Generation Nano and to me it sounds way better than the 7th Generation iPod Classic. Why is that?

 

[shigzeo]

The 6th gen nano is a surprisingly good sounding device. That could be the reason. Or, you could just prefer it. SQ rarely equates to preferences across the board.

Did you manage to try an iPhone 6/6+?...
 
Sorry for the offtopic.

I have the iPhone 6 but haven't had the chance to really test it out with my favourite earphones/headphones. I'll do that.

Great . I'll be looking forward  to your impressions (as i use to do since late 2008

 

[shigzeo]

My impressions have come more slowly lately, I'm sorry. But thank you for sticking with ol' shiggy for so long.

I can recall the first post of yours that i read it talked about balanced armatures, a term which had never heard before even if i had just purchased a Shure SE110 set.
 
In any case in a time when ditching idevices sound quality was the trend here you raised your head above the crowd to point out that they sounded quite clean and open. Somehow that idea has echoed in my mind across the years of aural bliss provided by Apple portables.
