Hi guys. i am now srsly considering this little thing... but would like some inputs from those who have it or tested it... let's say using itunes own music files... is there a listenable difference with this CLAS and from the LOD? I need to help myself justify this piece of bling! Help please? Tq!!!!

QUOTE(jkwanness @ Jul 9 2011, 01:56 AM) its a step up from my iMod, with black gate caps that is... the instrument separation better, more refined, sharp and crystal clear and musical power.. sound stage wise, its very hard for me to judge imma soundstage noob, but definitely more 3D'ness.. imaging way better.. a worthy upgradeee... my only regret? erm, battery life gua, with CLAS, both the CLAS device and ipod will last around 10-12hrs, whichever dies first lol... its a minus point, considering ipod can last 40hours! (never tested this).. never tried this against DACport or Larvy.. but a few respectable forumers here said its better than DA11 in a way that it makes low kbps mp3 sound bearable.. I listen to 128kbps streaming radio, love the sound.. other than that, go ahead man you won't regret... thx man for the poison...eh i mean help!  and the 10-12hr batt life is not bad! so now my limiting factor would be my amp! only 8hrs batt life!  aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa poison poison! a step up from imod? thats saying something....imod is already clean and have better instrument separation rite?

The weirdest journey ever.... i went to Jaben to try out the CLAS... it's awesome...even my current rig which i tot was good...sounds better... better separation...vocals pops out...it makes the sound so crystal clear...almost like listening to a live performance... i even tried it with the SR71B...the setup makes the Protector sounds like a toy...albeit an expensive one.... However...after the extensive testing and all...i decided NOT to get the CLAS...bcoz somehow a fella in Jaben was my anti-poison... he lighted up the path that i shud take.... and after considering what he said... i followed his advice... So no CLAS for me...yes it is an awesome product...no doubt...but not for me ...yet... Anyway thanks for those who've helped to poison me...
