Really enjoying the sound signature...was worried about the Arrow and the Cowon's interaction, working out fine though :).

I think he means rockbox, its a third party operating system for various mp3 players like ipods and sansa etc. 

 
I'm quite familiar with Rockbox. I thought maybe they meant, something like only uses lossless files, since I have heard the terms "CD" and "redbox" in the same sentence. Perhaps you're right. I've just never heard it referred to in that way.

Nice and simple: ipod touch to sennheiser ie8s.  I usually use a redboxed clip plus but i misplaced it to the ipod it taking it's place. 
 

This is an amazing photograph! Hanging in the air, one showing the Sennheiser logo, the other almost perfectly showing the side view, blurred out background..

Or he's indicating that he has some bad firmware as getting the the dreaded "red box" error in Sandisk players is a fairly common thing.  Still, that wouldn't make sense so he probably meant Rockboxed but was also thinking about DVD rentals in the back of his mind.

My photo skills aren't worth much, but I updated my collection; every combination of this is sounding really awesome.
 

 
That's a 6th ed. iPod plugged into the Fostex HP-P1 and the iBasso DX100 (just came in today!)
 
Headphones are Fostex T50RP modded with a TP1 kit from smeggy and Stax Omega II pads, and Ultrasone Edition 8 Limited #551.

The Klipsch do benefit from a judicious application of BBE.
 
The E1 seems to make the sound a tad cleaner (although this may be placebo) but at any rate provides a better remote than that of the x10i.

I don't quite understand what that means.. Anyone care to enlighten me, please?

i meant rockboxed, which is just a different firmware that you can put on some music players. (like the sansa clip plus)

Good day, everyone.
Just took a picture of my slighty improved rig. SE215 offer impressive value and do the trick for your ears, really. Planning a review for Head-Fi'ers in a month.

Sorry for awful image quality, shot with the old Nokie E50.
