Also, to do a true line out from a 5.5, to fostex amp or something like that, how do you do that if I have a stock player?
Thanks. Good forum
Thanks. Good forum
Q from newbie..
Compared to say a galaxy S3 or something on that level , what is SQ difference if I get a 5.5 stock player?
I'm an engineer so I have a tendency to build stuff, but don't know if I want to spend the hours tinkering..
Thanks

If you are well prepared, you can change internal stock amp to something better.
As an example:

Hand made amp (production is in China with small wholesale).
Based on UDA1380. One russian guy made this project and placed order to print this amps to some chinese factory.

These worked for me, and I hope it works for you if you decide to go a similar path. But if it doesn't work for you, please don't blame me.
I went for the same approach but got the mSATA Crucial 32GB as a cheap fix for a broken HDD in my 160GB iPod Classic 7G.
I was able to format the SSD as FAT32 and exFAT and got it to work as an external drive for my PC.
When I place the SSD + ZIF adapter in the iPod, it shows the red cross for both FAT32 and exFAT file systems.
My iPod is not recognized by windows or iTunes, so there is no way to restore it.
Diagnostic mode indicates there is a problem with the HDD.
Would there be a difference between the 32GB and 256GB mSATA Crucial SSD causing it not to work?
Any other ideas that I can try?
Maybe I got a broken mSATA - ZIF adapter, but is there a way to test this?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Yves
It sounds bit better than imoded lineout with FiiO e11 amp
I also recall having problems related to the battery being empty and thought that I needed to replace the battery. It turned-out that the ribbon for the battery (there are 2 ribbons) loosened.
