From the "Apple diyMod" thread:
I don't know how the RWA or the ebay seller implements the mod. According to this thread, there are 2 ways of modding. One is soldering to the board only, and the other is direct-out mod by wiring from the dac to the lod output pins directly. Are these mods equal in SQ? I don't know, but I like the direct-out mod and all my mods are done this way.
Have you ever tried going direct from the DAC to the iPod's headphone out, then use right-angled mini-plug cables to the amp? Having the CF card inside should leave enough room for this (I think). Might as well have the outside mods as compact as the inside.
