Actually Both lol!
It would be Sony all day long IF I could find a way to run from the line out on it without having to use the dock.

Well seeing as Turokrocks showed an interest in the Sony, :- Something new for the thread,
Since making a start on my Beyer Hybrid project I've been meaning to try them out on my Viao Pocket, 
So why not today....
Im listening to Sophie Sugar's Symphony 11, Which is something faster and more bass intense than I have used these cans for yet.
The cans themselves, Are DT531 drivers fitted in a DT770 Premium enclosure with 770 Pro headband.
They actually handled it very well, With a good articulate sound, Not too bright and good bass extension without struggling. 
Very impressed!
 
Sony Viao Pocket DAP > Beyer Hybrids...
 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
 

 
 
Next thing on the list for these Hybrid's is a balanced Copper Widow from Toxic Cables
along with a balanced to single ended adaptor so I can still use them with the Sony for example! :)

You said you could not afford the fostex or clas Paul. You are aware that buying LOTS of cheaper gear totals to even more when adding the sums?

I am more than aware of this fact.
Thats why Im no longer pouncing on any 'Cheap' gear when it comes along and saving up for a decent iDevice orientated DAC. :)
I'm aiming higher now, Specifically at a portable DAC, A few cables I'll need, one pair of headphones over the £200 mark & a new desktop amp.
Thats my 2013 list lol.

That sounds like a proper plan. Good on you Paul, good luck with it!

Don't know about that headphone jack being on the side of that Sony Vaio...looks like a right angled plug is a must.

and quoting 9 pictures just to say "Nice rig" is super annoying. There's a better thread Jude is trying to resurrect - one picture, no words. Perfecto!

Indeed I agree with you. Its an issue I have already thought out and have a solution plan in place.
This is why ALL of my cans gradually will be terminated with balanced interconnects ( Hirose for iBasso amps ), And I'll have a few adaptors 
with Hirose female balanced on one end, then either right angled interconnects for portable use or balanced XLR's for a balanced desk top amp I'll 
be getting towards the end of the year.
For any single ended iem's or headphones I'll have a small female to male jack cable, with the male being right angled.
 
Anyway, Back to the pictures eh folks?!

Love this thread, just looking at all the pictures makes me wanna spend more $$ lol
 

I got a portable rig thats actually portable! My daughter found an ipod at the beach so I inherited it and when I bought a digital camera on ebay it came with a small zipper case. The case is perfect for the amp and ipod to fit inside.

When you stuff them inside, the earphone's cable comes out the top. The pouch has a belt clip so u can wear it. On the front of the pouch is another compartment where I keep my Sansa clip and another LOD.
 
iso 6000 ftw! (for you camera buffs)
