I haven't checked into this thread in a while (300 unread pages of posts), but here's my current set-up, simply some Westone UM3X's driven by the worst source in the world, an HTC One. (My clip+ is out of juice 

)

Is the htc one that bad as a source ? I thought it was at least rather decent from what i have heard

Love this combo rig as well. Accept he500 i never tried..NICE picture btw !

 
 
 
      Thanks! The ALO amp drives the HE-500 pretty well.

Maybe they don't scale too well to Sansa?

Okay, I'm sure it's not the WORST source in the world, but maybe the worst mainstream-smartphone source? I've used iPhone 3GS, 4S, 5S, and GS3 and GS4, and the one doesn't compare. 
In saying that however, I only use it as a source very rarely, and I'm no longer the avid audiophile I once was. I've become accustomed to my subtle satisfaction and appreciation of imperfection. (it's probably better that way, you guys no longer have to apologise about my wallet haha)

Well my $30 sansa clip+ (rockboxed) out-performs the HTC. Draw your own conclusion (It can also play 24bit flac, my HTC had a fit when it tried)

The iPhone 4 don't sound bad actually. Just a little bit on the thin side while iPad 2 sound more lively than iPhone 4. IMO

Isn't it almost certin those 24 bit flac files are getting down sampled from the sansa?

And I don't suppose you have the RSA Intruder do you? If so any chance of a pic with it?

Fancy giving the Intruder away? lol just kidding! Looks like a very nice collection there!
Have you tried the Intruder with iPhone5 yet? Does it work, If so is it a good combo?

I do not use Apple products unless I have too. However, I did buy an iPad mini and then the iPad Air to use as remote controls for the Lumin Music Player..................

Actually, besides the ASP pair, I will be selling every portable amp when I get time to list them so no, I will not be buying the two mentioned.
