line in recording is not the x5's strongest point. definitely needs improvement. for one they need some sort of visual on the screen so you can see the input levels. also, with vinyl, since there is hissing and pops in between tracks, dont expect the auto sync to work too well. what kind of sound card do you have?
i used to dj so i bought the m-audio 2496 to record my vinyl with. 150 bucks but well worth it.
the zcover protects the joystick very well. with the zcover on, no part of the joystick protrudes outside of the case protection, so it does a good job. dont get gray. i, like bangraman, also got this colour and feel it just makes the x5 look blah. i would stick with black.
you may have some issues with the silicone attracting fuzz, but after it 'breaks in' i really dont have any issues with the cover sucking up lint. and i keep it in my pocket all the time when i am at school. after a week or so the lint specs stopped showing up, and i wasnt wearing the same pair of pants that whole week.
the line-out has the bass rolloff.
however the headphone out is quite sufficient. it is a robust output. you will not get any of the distortion issues so common to ipod users, even with some as of late with the 5g.
