ipod Boost That Won’t Break The Bank

I’ve tested a few ipods, and I’ve owned a few, and one thing that always get me, is that they do need a kick up the backside when it comes to powering your headphones. After my brief spell with the Cowon iAudio F2 player, I realized what all ipod owners seem to be missing, which is a good bit of power to make your music sing.

The Cowon F2 rocks!

I’m afraid the ipod just doesn’t cut it on it’s own, and most people wouldn’t even dream of buying a headphone amp to give it their ipods a new lease of life. I was one of those who spent years dodging headphone amps. Instead I relied on all those magazines that told me how good the ipod sounded, and all the time, I was missing out.

The fact is you don’t have to take out a second mortgage or start working at a fast food restaurant in order to save for a headphone amp. There are some very reasonable amps available at a good price. So don’t sweat about it, just buy one!

The Cowon iAudio F2 is coming

back!

After sending back the iAudio F2 2GB back to amp3, I’ve just ordered the 1GB version (there is method to my madness, I’ll explain later). My only concern is that the iAudio produced volume levels that IPods could only dream about. This begs the question: how effective will the CMoy amps be with the F2?

C&C 3.5 interconnect cable on order.

I’ve just order the C&C cable, in the hope of finding out how much of a differnce interconnect cables can make. So why the C&C 3.5 interconnect cable? Pure vanity I’m afraid. It looks good (I must get out more!) and I want to test a C&C amp in the near future.
