Need an iPad/Pod/Phone
 

So, I am experimenting with lossless for regular CD's that I have on my iPod, and want to use the DAC in my NAD M15HD for playback decoding.

Amazingly, it seems almost all the docks out there are ANALOG DOCKS!?!

I have so far found this HDMI and TOSLINK dock, but was wondering if you Apple folks have any input. I want direct digital stream into my processor, but apparently not many people do.

There are a number of USB-based digital output solutions out there. You'll find the people who use loseless and care about the output to be in the minority.

Here you go...
Cambridge Audio ID100 (Black) Digital audio output iPod®/iPhone®/iPad® dock at Crutchfield.com

I am basically trying to experiement consolidating my normal CD's into an iPod, but I want to preserve the PCM quality and use the DAC in my processor.

My SACD's get their own SACD player.

How about this guy?

SoundStage! - The Digital Domain - Wadia 170iTransport Digital iPod Dock (2/2009)

Wadia knows their digital thats for sure. I loved my Wadia traspost and da from many moons ago. I have not spent anytime listening to the iPod stuff from them so I can't comment.

That Cambridge ID100 looks sweet. I might pick one of those up.

I think I am going to as well.

Lots of problems with the Wadia 170, and not much review of the 171.
