A good ipod dock for an ipod classic.


I am looking for a good audio ipod dock for my ipod classic. I was 1st looking at the wadia 170i and then was distracted by the onkyo, but is only avail in Europe. Is the new wadia that much better? Anyway, any input would be appreciated. Merry Christmas and have a great holiday season.

i have looked all over for this solution. the wadia is great but at over 300+ duplicates my macg4 set up. the onkyo isn,t available yet w/o taking extra effort to get one from europe and then maybe ac settings need adjustment? peachtree has the idecco but i already have the origonal one and have decided not to spend more to get the better one for a bedroom system. so i bought a little pin unit at radioshack that plugs into the bottom and as i assume bypasses the headphone amp and uses the internal dac. it also has the usb attachement. i think it was 25 bucks. fine for music but not digital out. i also use a jbl dock that sounds ok.. just ok...i have concluded that i will wait til the guys at apple decide to loosen up and license someone else in the next year or so. in the meantime i spent the money i saved on not getting the wadia and got puremusic and it was a better way to go for me. best 109 dollars i ever spent on hifi. they have a discount til the 18th by the way. 109.00 instead of 129.00. but it is for mac computers only
I must be confused. My distributor has "loads" of the ONKYO DSA3 here in the US of A.

Are you talking about some other unit.
I was going to use the digital output. the onkyo i was referring to is the "onkyo nd s1 ipod dockĀ”. The reviews were great on this item. I contacted onkyo and they have no plans to sell this in the USA.
