You would think the processing is after the digital. Call Wadia (734)786-9611 to find out for sure. I will try mine later to find out because I use the "Rock" EQ setting on my iPhone.
Wadia iTransport and Classic iPod's EQ setting
Hello,
I own a Wadia iTransport 170i, used with a 120GB iPod Classic and an outboard DAC via COAX digital cable.
When I change the EQ setting on the iPod, the sound would also changes.
To my understanding, if the iTransport takes the pure, unaltered digital signal out of the iPod (bypass the iPod's internal DAC), this digital signal should not be effected by the iPod's sound processor, but my experience proves otherwise.
Am I missing something or does the iPod processes the digital signal BEFORE it goes through its internal DAC? (That's why the digital signal extracted by the iTransport was effected by the iPod's EQ?)
Thank you very much for your forth coming explanation.
