Wadia 170 iTransport iPod Dock $499

The new 170iTransport from Wadia Digital turns your iPod into an audiophile listening source! Through special licensing with Apple the iTransport is the world’s first iPod dock to retrieve a direct digital signal from an iPod. As a result, the audio signal remains pure and unadulterated, providing better than CD-quality resolution from full-resolution file formats such as .WAV and Apple Lossless (.m4a).

The iTransport turns any currently available iPod player into a high-end media server by providing a bit-perfect digital audio output to an audio/video system, bypassing the player’s internal digital-to-analog conversion (DAC) and analog output stage. Subsequently, the audio signal remains clean and unadulterated throughout the path, outputting a “bit-perfect” digital stream. The iTransport is compatible with all current iPods including the Touch and iPhone as well as some older models.

Also includes standard analog outputs (which pass the internal analog signal of the iPod), video output and remote control.
