That looks cool, and it's surprising it is the first product to incorporate a dock/dac/headamp.

Would like a better translation -- does "without a digital signal withdrawal" mean that they do not use the digital signal, and substitute a better DAC? Or does it mean that you'll have withdrawals when you don't listen to this iPod/Dock/Headamp?

The page says the amp will be using digital signal from iPod.

Also, the amp has line out and attenuation/volume control for that works via iPod directly or included remote, but not with the volume knob on the actual amp.

For me this is one of those "why didnt I think of that" items, which is sad, considering ipod docks are practically found in underwear and cigarette packs nowadays. Kinda cool.

And vibrators. Don't forget vibrators.

The previous AT amps have all been shockers though. I think when I was a total noob, I was looking at the HA-20? Terrible, terrible piece of kit......

Hopefully, this is an improvement.
