I don't know what to think of this. Audiophiles I suppose, like to have these fancy amps that use old fashioned vacuum tubes, yet they might cringe at this. To strap an iPod on top of such a system is giving me a headache, trying to figure out if this is a good idea or not, since I am by no means an audiophile. At any rate...it's unique! This story is from Akihabara News, who have apparently performed the English translation from the Japanese site, Thanko.

IPOD is a kiddy toy and dont know why they invented a tube amp for it. And the audio quality from an ipod is not as good as original CD being output from dual or quad burr brown chip DAC. Such a waste of money on it
Ah geez, another one...
There's like 3-5 new iPod systems like this every month, most of which are just terrible & severly overpriced.
btw, can anyone tell me when the last time, Klipsch, Logitech or any other company has released 5.1 &/or 7.1 speakers for the computer?
Such a waste
Tube Amplifier + Digital source is a unique sound...but from a good source like CD...
Tks, for im my life, at least several times, had the plager of wearing such machines...
What a sound!
( At my home, i couldn`t wear my own system for several days
)
