I have ordere both and will receive them in a little while.
 
I'll just have to install Rockbox "vanillla" on the former or do you suggest any optional plugins / procedures ?
 
Is the "Crosstalk" function useful ?
 
Will a portable AMP be necessary (in the affirmative case does the Zip have a way to getting line out from in or only from headphones using its own DAC ?).
 
Thank you

Meier crossfeed is very good if you listen to a lot of older recordings with hard-panned instruments. That comes with the basic Rockbox build anymore.

Aw good to know ! I still cannot understand if I'll drive the Mad Dogs directly from phone out or if I'll need a portable amp and or DAC/amp .. ideas ?
