Probably like many others out there, I have been trying to find every little iPod gadget available for the holiday season.
I think some of the new accessories are really going to benefit from a new drive -- one in particular I was looking at was a headphone amp (I think it's called the A1) from some company named Simpl Acoustics.
I honestly do not know what sort of a product this is (would love any thoughts), but having invested in a pretty nice set of headphones awhile back -- they claim that this new amp will not only drive my headphones, but also will allow be to hear a wider range of sound within them (assuming of course that I used an uncompressed sound equivalent such as lossless). This poses a bit of a problem to me as I will obviously need about 10x more space to encode all of my music in lossless.
I think the iPod will only go from great to greater if I can actually have the space to encode everything via lossless and then use some product to actually hear the differences!
