actually if it works with the ipod line out it only means the processing is done before the amp stage, not necessarily before the dac stage, and the opitical out is the pre dac stage

Although, with literally ten minutes of your time and the right screwdrivers you could change the hdd yourself. Wap the back off, move the battery and take out the hdd and replace...As you have rockbox already installed its job done. Whats the issue with yours not turning on again? Have you used the wrong charger?

where can you find the 64G CF card? I thought the largest you can get in the current market is 32G. and beware of some brands it might not be recognized by the player.I think CF mod is the best way to go but unless you can find a cheap 64G CF

Does this apply to the iriver too?

Pretec makes a 64GB CF card but it is very expensive ($399). It has already been tried to work on iHP-120 or 140. Another way is using SSDs (60GB, 120GB, 240GB). They are also expensive at this time. And I'm not sure if anyone has successfully converted their HP120/140 to SSD yet.

What is the model of HD that works, not just the brand but the model numbers?

Is there a special adapter one must buy to plug it into the H140?

Here's a link to Toshiba's 1.8" HDs, 1.8-Inch Hard Disk Drives - Toshiba

No adapters needed. Dual platters should fit your HP140 with no problem unless you have a thicker battery than the original battery.

Thanks, I'll take a look.

O, they have 240G for PATA, Does the power on the H140 support that one? I heard H120 is limited to 60G and the H140 limited to 120G.. is that true? what is the difference?

 

[iriverdude]

Have you checked mistic forums more info there.

 

[Sonicpath]

Let me find out I will keep you guys posted.

I just got a interesting idea, As using IMOD+VCAP+P51 3 bricks, what about IHP140+D10(preAMP)+P51(or anyother AMPs), this set up maybe better than the IMOD setup

That will work too. The D10 can be a stand-alone DAC too. I actually want to use it that way too so I can listen to my other portable hp amps.

 

[dazzer1975]

i'll be trying the d10 as a preamp to my iqube, don't think it will stay that way though, one rig with 3 bricks is enough for me

 

[qusp]

i'll be using gamma1 with lisa III

actually that is doubtful; since I have a DIYMOD and the signal is taken directly off the dac pins, so unless there is EQ done in the dac itself. its done before the dac stage
