WADIA IPOD QUESTION ???


Hi, I missed Wadia room during CES, can anyone describe the sound and features of new iPod dock (ins, outs and all).

Thanks a lot.

It will be interesting to hear how it sonically compares to the much more expensive Krell KID.

Good question. It just might upset a few......and makes the rest of us smiling.
Any word on DAC ??? I wonder if ext. DAC is a must with iTransport or its build-in DAC is up to the task +++++

I own SONOS but to get the most out of it, the pace car by Empirical Audio might be the only option.

This option is a well over a 1G, so if one can get Wadia + iPod + DAC = Sonos w/o mods.

What do you thing......?????
If you use the analogue outs then the ipod's DAC is used. Otherwise, allegedly a pure digital stream is sent to an outboard dac of your choosing through the RCA S/PDIF.
I see....., thanks Bar81.

Too bad nobody heard it. I only heard rumors (very positive).......but honest voice is still lost in the woods (that is you audiogoners).
I heard, very convincing. When I asked the exhibitor what the price was, I thought his $349 was just a joke, so I asked again, he smiled and said that is it. The sound was very similar to the CDP they had sitting below it. The dock makes for a good transport, which they put into the CDP below and used its DACS. I could not hear the difference from one to the other.
The ins-outs DON S states are correct, they had a very cool unit with custom flame painting on it, coooool.
This should help put the Wadia name into homes that could not normally afford their larger dollar units.
