Portable speakers
I haven't heard the 5s or 6s, but I'm very happy with my 4s. When I want more than they can do, I turn on the big speakers.

Post what you're watching
Just finished season 4 of Breaking Bad. Now we have to find the first couple of episodes from season 5, as our dvr hasn't caught them yet. That's 4 seasons of breaking bad in just over 2 weeks.

I don't want to take it into the lab, I want to have it at my desk, not in the secure area.

The VTGs are pretty easy on headphone amps, so maybe it's good enough. /me starts budgeting. Or maybe I'll get the M4 I was promised ages ago?

New Oppo player for late 2012
So prior to my current job, I'd never have considered plugging a hard drive into a bluray player as being preferable to having a media server. That said, NOW I'd do it. Stupid "you can't bring a non-gov't owned computer, or anything with internet access to work" rule. So yah, I'd love it if the oppo played alac from a usb connected hard drive. Someone make that happen, please. I'd spend the $1000 on the oppo, plus money on the headphone amp (why did I sell my g-lite?)..maybe if I bring in the mini and apogee, but turn off wifi they'll allow it?

Or just play the music on your computer, and use the oppo as a dac.

Do they pay you for the advertising? If not, you should approach them and offer your services.

I'm ok with the new screen. I would have hated it if they'd made it any wider. It's right at the cusp of too wide for my pockets already. Adding 1/2" to the length is a reasonable compromise. Any wider and it's a tablet, not a phone.

Ipod Touch / Iphone
I haven't noticed a difference on my last couple of iPhones. Perhaps it's level matching or confirmation bias?

Ipod Touch / Iphone
You have a true, variable line out in the headphone jack. Given that it went through an opamp either way it hardly seems to matter. I imagine we'll see more dac/amps going forward.
