Default Love it when everything works

I just sat in my car for over an hour... just listening to music.
Finally finished my entire iPod setup and ran Stingers back to the amp (why I even bothered running the scosche RCAs in the first place... I dunno) and I was... captivated.

Quick runthrough of the kickassness. I have the iPod running direct to the battery (double fused... it's not blowin my iPod) to setup a constant charge... car on or off, as well as another cable off the dock connector for a direct RCA output to the back of my new Pioneer 4800MP (wanted simple.. and I love it) which has the RCAs off the 10pin DIN instead of the 3.5mm aux in it has. The sound quality couldn't be better. I actually setup 3.5mm to aux in on the Pioneer and my RCA to DIN setup at the same time, and flipped btw aux1 and aux2 and the sound qual diff is amazing. Better yet, seeing as it's off the dock connector, you don't worry about the iPod volume

then sat in the car marveling over the awesomeness and setting up my custom EQ now that the amp doesn't sound like trash

that is all.

Looks good. Does your iPod ever skip with that set up? I've got an older mem stick mp3 player and never had a mini hd based one.

never skipped at all. went through the worst of the construction on my way to work and it didn't skip. I snowboard with this badboy too (this the wicked case on it... that thing kicks ***!) and it's never skipped on me once.

actually forgot people ever experienced these things skipping... you must have to shake it really good to skip these bad boys

thanks guys, still lovin it. You wouldn't think I'd be so stoked by it all... but something about having 5000+ songs whereever you go playing through a good system just tickels my fancy.

thanks too apg, i'm a photography nut... just need to get a better camera (look at that grainy black and out of focus iPod!)
