[QUOTE="user 1447, post: 100093, member: 1447"] I dont know where you got the idea that the iPod DACS were not supposed to be good ..... some of the ipod's use a Wolfson DAC chip which is considered by many to be way better than even Burr Brown (now that BB is made by Texas Intruments) if your iPod is an older one that uses the Wolfson DACS then that should explain why the unit sounds good and it could easily be considered "audiophile grade" as for the differences in the DAC's i suppose it depends where you get your information from because some places claim that Burr Brown or Cirrus logic makes better DAC chips whilst others claim Wolfson makes better IMHO i dont really care as long as it plays the music in a way that i like .... then its all good whichever DAC chip was used IMHO [/QUOTE]
