iPod as Source

[tony3d]

Has anyone here used an iPod as a jukebox? I was thinking of getting DLO's Music Remote and use my video iPod to play through my stereo. I will re-rip my music at a very high bit rate. My main concern is what effect the dock will have on the sound in the way of noise. Does anyone here have experience with this?

I use an Apple dock (the one with the remote) through my my Meier Audio Opera (no snide comments from the weird Meier Audio haters please) with good results. The Opera's DAC sounds better, as does a Red Wine Audio iMod iPod, but the regular iPod via the dock still is plenty listenable.
