Hi sifu, the aim I post this topic cause I want to know more about LOD and can't find a topic about LOD in LYN forum.

The aim of using LOD are:
1. to bypass the internal amp (LOD to 3.5 TRS Male Audio Jack type) utilise internal DAC but bypass internal Amp so get raw Analog signal prevent double amping.
2. to bypass the internal DAC (LOD to USB 2.0 type A Male Jack type) another external amp require. Total 3 device: audio player, DAC, Amp.

Currently available on:

1. Apple 30-pin dock connector (LOD), iPod and all iDevice (iPad and iPhone)



2. Sony digital media port (18 pin), Walkman® Video MP3 player


3. San Disk Sansa LOD (30 pin), Sansa Fuze


This is 3.5 TRS Male Audio Jack to 3.5 TRS Male Audio Jack are universal but it will be double amping. DAC to Amp also need this type cable.


With this Apple LOD to 3.5 female jack can use above cable or better custom (silver/gold) cable


This is the Sony LOD to 3.5 female jack.


This is the Sansa LOD to 3.5 female jack.

Nice! I'm planning to get the older version of Sansa Fuze. And most probably will use LOD as main connector.

http://www.fiio.com.cn/product/index.aspx?...1&MenuID=020303 haha all can be found here. Bro, will u bring in the Sony and Sansa LOD? I remember last time in a post that u say Fiio don't have Sansa LOD. Maybe that time Fiio haven't come out this such good product .

Had only ordered 5 units of the FiiO L5 LOD for Sony for August delivery, 2 of them taken, left with 3. If you need the Sansa LOD, you will need to confirm latest by next week in order to get it on the 2nd week.

I don't own Sansa but I know some LYN audiophiles using Sansa.

for galaxy tab, if need line out, get the Galaxy Tab™ Stereo/ Video Cable

Bro, reserved one for me.. LOD for Sony and Ipod if still have.

how does fiio l9 compare to cooper @ silver interconnect?

Here are the details on the Japanese cable used.

Currently im using lod made by mr bogac tekman from turkey, pure copper + solid silver with switchcraft plug. Works great for bright iem, it makes the iem a bit warm and smooth while still maintaining the crisp and sparkle.



And sometimes i also use solid silver lod if my ear wanted to listen bright sound sig and auditioning. now waiting for my mundorf gold (pure silver + 1% gold) lod to arrive.


nak try alo cryo lod tak mampuuuuu. cari yg jena cable cukup a.

Added on July 30, 2011, 1:36 pmLOD to 3.5 female jack can't plug headphone directly cause without amping rite? U all guy can tell me about (I mean the brand) performance LOD to 3.5 female jack Eg: contain good capacitor. So that I can post the pic @ 1st post. Went I 1st time saw this LOD I think is HDMI jack

The black cable (normal/oem like) and twist cable (performance/custom like) what is the different? Bak kata pepatah inggeris 'Don't judge a book by its cover'

This look no so pro. I doubt on the SQ. To provide power via Mini usb, the 3.5 jack cap sure smaller size.

Nope, no bg caps as im not did not pair it with imod. LOD wwith bg caps can only be used for imod

i wonder if this can be used for the Galaxy S Wifi as well.. planning to upgrade to that as my PMP.

Added on July 31, 2011, 5:00 amif i'm not mistaken, hippo amp doesn't have volume control right? then don't bother using LOD. because it completely bypass the player's amp, which means volume can't be control by the player. (using ipod > LOD > fiio e11, the e11 acts as the volume control, even when my ipod volume is at 0)
