I've been reading and digesting an awful lot of information from this site over the last couple of weeks so now it's time for my first post - and it's a question.
I have an 80GB iPod Video 5.5 Gen and Shure SE530's and listen whenever I can wherever I am to lots of different types of music. From Brian Eno to Led Zep, with a great love for cool chillout and lounge music too.
I love the portability of the iPod and being able to take virtually all my collection with me is a huge benefit, and because of this I use my iPod as my primary source. I have a Fatman iTube Carbon edition amp (anyone else have one of these? - Brilliant!) with Q-Acoustic speakers for home use.
I now want to maximise my audio SQ when away from home and feel that having ripped most of my music to lossless an amp is the next step.
Having spent quite some time reading up on the subject I have narrowed the choice down to two extremely highly regarded, and new, amps - the SR-71A and the Pico.
I would really appreciates your thoughts on either of these amps with my particular set up, and advice on which way to go.
Thanks in advance.
