I’m thinking about buying a 60 gig iPod, probably a photo, and putting Rockbox on it but I have some questions.
- I remember awhile back (3G I think?) iPod’s had some problems with low impedance IEM’s like the Shure E4’s which caused a bass rolloff. Right now I’m using E4’s but the plan will be to upgrade to E500’s at some point in the near future. Do the 4G and 5G iPods still have this impedance issue?
- I'd prefer to use a leather case of some sort, any recommendations for something reasonably priced, attractive yet durable? Doesn't necessarily have to be leather either, that's just a preference.
- Initially I plan to just use the iPod on its own, I’m not fond of the idea of carrying around an amp everywhere but I might look into a small portable amp for use around home or work while still using the iPod on it’s own in portable situations. What would be the best line out scenario for this type of use?
- Any other necessary accessories I should be looking at?
