As a result, the audio signal remains pure and unadulterated, providing CD-quality resolution from full-resolution file formats such as .WAV and .m4a (Apple Lossless), according to Wadia President John Schaffer. In other word, it 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 D/A conversion and output stage, he adds.
Subsequently, the audio signal remains clean and unadulterated throughout the path, Schaffer says. The iTransport, due in February, is compatible with all currently available iPods, as well as the iPod touch and theiPhone.
Along with turning an iPod into a high-performance audio server, iTransport is one of the first such products to access video content stored on currently available iPods. Similar to the audio section, the video signal is made available via high performance component outputs that
provide up to DVD-quality video, Schaffer says.
The iTransport measures 2 x 8 x 8 inches and incorporates a S/PDIF digital audio output and high-resolution component digital video output, as well as analog audio and video outputs forconnection with most audio/video systems. iPod players are charged while in the dock, and can be operated via Apple's standard IR remote control.
