Check back here for the status of v2 targets: SansaAMS < Main < Wiki

Only a matter of time... hell, I just got the ultra-awesome Clip+ and wish I had Rockbox on it.

Same here. Glad to see they've added it to the target list. Gapless playback that works 100% of the time and a better EQ would be wonderful.

Nice review on the MBE+, btw.

Glad I could help - Rockbox sure makes the Clip a lot more awesome. Amazing audio quality paired with amazing control... can't get much better.

^After flashing my 2GB V1, mine just says "firmware not found".....

How does the Clip+ pair with the Westone 3 nyjets28? I'm considering buying a 4GB, then getting a 16GB microSD card when I go overseas later in the year.

Reinstall the original firmware (think dkft's forums have the m800.bin file), then move the rockbox files and the dual boot file into the main device folder to reinstall

Hi, impressive slim LOD there. Kudos to the fabricator.

However, does it affect or have any impact on your W3/Fuze if the line out does not comes with caps?

nsx: i couldn't be happier with my w3's. imo, they sound great with anything that i've used. before i had my 3's i actually used some bass boost in my eq with my old clip and PFE's, but now i find no need to EQ anything with my 3's.

cirdec: i haven't noticed any difference between this slim LOD and another one that i had prior. i don't really know much about the makeup of the LODs but i trust pdupiano's work and he said that it shouldn't have any problems working with any DAPs or hp's.

Without caps in the Fuze LOD you might damage your phones, among other issues.

For both the circuit of Griffin dock and AS3525's datasheet, I find out that caps are indeed part of the original design (as DC filter). So what is the main difference b/w v1 (w/o caps) and v2 (w/ caps) beside how caps affect SQ? The differences lie in noise feedback and DC offset problem. First, with out the caps, sometime you can hear distortion caused by turning the potentiometer (volume pot) on the amp. With the caps, it is all silence. Second, There is a ~1.4V DC offset on the line-out signal. When you set the volume too high on some amp (way beyond safe listening volume), you will notice the volume starts to drop out as the volume is going up. I suspect that is DC/AC issue there since not all amp have input filter to deal with DC offset. The 'evil' about DC offset is, amp with no DC filter will amp the DC voltage (along with the music, which is an AC component) and cause it to become too high. The high voltage can kill your headphone transducer, depends on how high the voltage is and how sensitive the transducer to the voltage. Note, some amp do have DC filter as part of the design (i.e. cmoy, Practical Devices' XM3, etc) and there is no need to add more caps in the LOD.
