Hi everybody,
I've been using a very humble system for several years:
An iPod Classic mounted in a Purei20 Dock, going out through optical cable to
a TEAC AH-01 Integrated amp and a pair of Q Acoustic speakers.
Recently my grandkids killed my Purei20!!
I've tried to figure how to get the iPod to the amp without the Purei20.
I've had several people tell me to just use the headphone jack to line in on the amp, but I'd like to come out through the 30Pin onnector to maintain sound quality.
I thought of using a headphone amp/usb dac (the portability would be useful)
and I looked at options as follows:
1) FiiO Q1II Portable Headphone Amplifier & DAC
2) Oppo HA-2SE Portable Headphone Amplifier & DAC
3) Denon DA-10 USB Headphone Amplifier & DAC
The guy in my audio store says using one of these will destroy my amp, and also suggests the line in cable from the headphone jack.
Just wondered what you guys think? Is there any other better way?
Many thanks and best wishes to all
Jim
