There is a LOD (line out from the dock) which is also made by Fioo. They have several models (l1, L3, L9, etc.) depending on build quality and whether the connector is L-shaped or straight in. It connects to the AUX input on the bottom of the unit.
I've found MiccaStore to be one of the better distributors of Fioo products. In fact, the L3 connector they sent with my E17 didn't work and they sent out another without my sending back the original first. Great customer service.
They also threw in a free Toslink cable when I ordered--I don't know if the offer still exists.
Also, there's a guy over at eBay who goes by the moniker AudioMinor who's been making LODs for years now and his prices are the best I've seen. Comparable work goes for several times his price. I ordered his basic LOD for $26 and the next best I could find from others was well over $100. 22 AWG silver plated cooper wire with a silver plated over brass Neutrik connector. The only downside is he's over in Ankara, Turkey and it takes about 3 weeks to get his LOD. The good thing is he ships for free and is recommended by listeners at some of the sites I mentioned.
If you're handy with a soldering iron, you can look up on YouTube on how to make your own. Of the 30 pin connector, only three are needed: positive, negative and ground. I'm just not that handy so I opted for the one from AudioMinor.
By the way, it sounds really good with the L3 connector and in a couple of weeks I'll post my findings on how well the LOD from AudioMinor sounds.
All the best,
