    So, dock your iPod to a computer and play the files off it through an audio interface attached to the computer.

    For $1000 you could get a neat little ITX box and a quality interface.

    The iPod does act as a USB drive, doesn't it?

    That's what I meant.

    Not if you have an iPod Touch, unless you install a 3rd party app.

    Ouchies.

    Well exactly, which is why I prefer second hand gear. Just gotta know which has stood the test of time.

  • Kyle Matthews,

    Yes, I think Kyle is mathematically wrong, even given his assumptions. If someone wants to work it out, the formula is here.

    Not maths, reading. I saw five words, and read five letters :(

    As you were.

    “Why isn’t there an entry-level DAC that’s iPod-ready – i.e., an iPod dock with a third-party DAC? That would be good

    Slightly cheaper than that expensive Wadia DAC, I just read about this US$249 iPod DAC. A bit more likely to be within my price range, and that of others, I'd have thought.

    (No connection to product, etc.)
