Default ipod mods?

I was wondering a few things, seeing as I'm really getting into audiophile territory these days, and have always been living under the saying, "If it works, it can still work better." and "It can only be fixed after you've broken it" I was wondering if anyone has a few pics of the inside of a G6 ipod classic.... I was hoping to track out the DAC/opamp scenario and see if I could mod my ipod to get some more out of it. Similar to the imods, but they have no support for the G6 classics.

iMod

I'm all for replacing small components, etc. and if I screw it up, it's still under warranty I'd love to do something similar to the 5/5.5G mod that they offer, but on my own... maybe replace the DAC chip...and the battery while I'm at it.

Here's a good thread for you to read through
http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f6/app...ano-1g-269604/

Not specifically for your version, but I believe there is talk of gen 6 modding once you get a few pages in.

5.5 -



6/Classic -



The simplest way to tell is that 5.5 is glossy and 6 is matte.

They don't have mods for the 6gen yet, but give it time and I bet it will.
if you have a 5.5g or 5 you can add bluetooth, LEDS, iMod it, change battery,
make it use compact flash. an LOD will do you good for the ipod 6gen for now :] [with a nice amp]

are you currently using a LOD?

If you mod the iPod then you'll need a more expensive LOD that has caps inside it.
