So you were comparing an iMod with ALO dock AND an amp vs. a regular iPod headphone out? I doubt it, but I'm just making sure
Anyway, in the comparison, were you listening to the exact same tracks at the same volume? It's easy to confuse detail, soundstage, impact, and whatnot with volume.
I am apparently, I am getting my signal directly from the DAC with my silver coated teflon 28awg wires (only used 1-2 strands for contact), but I'm not hearing much of a difference at all. I am comparing the direct Line Out signal with no amp vs. the headphone out. If the difference was "big" at all, I would notice it without having to concentrate. Maybe all of us on head-fi are on a wild goose chase to find things that cause our perception to be skewed into liking it, haha.
