Pictures of Your Portable Rig (part XVI)

I made a post in the Layla/Angie that I probably won't be giving my thoughts based on a 10-20 min listen at a show. It's not really a controlled environment so I'm rather cautious about sharing initial impressions under such conditions. Hope you understand. I am hoping that I'm able to borrow a pair of demos where I can listen at home for a short while.

I thought JH Audio made IEMs, not headphones

  I have been amazed and maybe a little jealous looking over the portable rigs in this thread. Thought for fun i would post one of my "portable" projects Its a little banged up from quite a bit of outside use. runs off rechargeable 12volt lithium battery.

That's scary, but honestly one of the coolest things I've ever seen.

Here it is. iPod classic 7th gen with jds labs C5. Er4S (S adaptor). When the battery in the c5 dies I just unplug the er4P from the er4S adaptor an into the ipod itself, usually the last ten minutes or so of a journey. Really happy with this. I know there can be upgrades all around, but I really dig this setup. I am, however, having trouble with my fiio L9. Do these things just wear out over time? It is cutting out too easily. After testing, I'm positive it is the stress on the L9 that easily cuts out most of the sound. Obviously a replacement is in order, but is an LOD cable upgrade worth it? Based on this experience, I am curious.

This setup is my relatively new companion. Hopefully for a few years until someone comes up with a DAP brick with a neutral sound signature, great dac(s), clean sounding and powerful amplification, long battery life, logical software, and all the goodies and a fair price. Would love to see jds labs take a crack at it.

Thanks.
yep its a lepai found for sometimes around 20 bucks, some b52 speakers i already had from parts express. the hard part was finding some small 12 volt rechargeable Lithium batteries that would fit. A camera mount and bracket that would hold my sansa clip up to my 7 inch tablet.
