QUOTE(jkwanness @ Mar 29 2011, 02:40 PM) yeah that could be one of the reason too... but nonetheless, CLAS's battery can only last about 9 hours (so i read).. as long as the ipod can last for 9 hours plus, it should be okay.. aahh..CLAS = Algorythm Solo. lol   |

no have to buy separately.. but i seriously doubt there's any SQ improvement... cause its transferring digital signals from idevice to CLAS.. I think i'll rather just shorten the USB cable for portability

lols!! it sounds fantastic man... it makes low bitrate/low quality recordings sound good, and good quality recordings great! overall huge jump!
however it kinda sucks the battery life out of my ipod.. lols i'll have to reconfirm this again though, but it seems like so.. |

CLAS has its own internal batteryhowever it kinda sucks the battery life out of my ipod.. lols i'll have to reconfirm this again though, but it seems like so.. |

i believe this has been cleared up already... because the ipod transfers data asynchronously, the authentication chip eats up the battery life.. its something like using the cpu to process data, therefore less battery life...

I was searching earlier for battery Casing for iphones/itouch..... they don't have connection ports below the casing, however they do have USB A-B for transfer, not sure if they'll work with CLAS though.. If they do that'll be great, extra batt life for iphoners
get both bro! lols.. T1! |

How much should I invest to get the sound like iMod or even better, let's say on an iPod touch? o.O?

iMod only works with 5.5gen ipods and lower.. if ipod touch, only 1st gen ipod touch... i would say cypher labs is a big step above imod... however imod is about the best thing i've heard till this lol
