Doesn't the LOD sound better?

One week ago I said that the Custom Triple Fi 10's were my last upgrade for a while..... ONE WEEK AGO!!!!
 
Now, I upgraded the iPod for a Cowon J3 and am using a pure silver 3.5mm -> 3.5mm instead of the LOD.
 
I blame each and every one of you

Since I am using the Cowon now, it doesn't matter how the LOD sounds as I can't use it with that or the clip.

Well my portable rig is almost 100% complete. I only want one more thing, and that is the TWag IEM replacement cable. But anyways here is my near complete rig. 
 
I love the LOD i have,the one thing being it adds to the length of the complete system, Your lod is just about perfect, where can you get such a short LOD?

Very nice, clean shot you have there of the J3. It's simple but effective.

Bought those beautiful Sennheiser ie8 some days ago. Love them. I have to sell my "old" UE Super.Fi 5 EB... 
I'm still looking for a good alternative for my meizu... but I guess there is no DAP with such a great amplifier built in. 
 

 
Sometimes I listen to my iphone4 as well. Love the clear sound but the lack of a good eq is a pity. There's not enough bass for my taste. 
 


Holy crap! At ISO1600 as well! Full frame iso performance is amazing.

Sorry, I misunderstood your comment.
 
Initially it was touch and go... I was kind of dissapointed with the J3 because I felt my Gen 4 iPod sounded pretty awesome with the LOD and other assorted kit I had gathered and the Cowon didn't sound 'that' much better if any at all.
 
However, after a few days and some familiarisation with the Cowon's EQ settings etc... I think the Cowon + interconnect wins the day.
 
Don't forget that the LOD is designed to shorten the path and bypass the iPods internal amplifier because the iPod gubbings are rubbish... however if you have a DAP with DECENT internals... feeding it via the 3.5mm isn't detrimental. IMHO
 
 
No I mean cowon with interconnect versus iPod with LOD.
