wadia & iPod, anybody happy with it?

I'm thinking about moving to sometype of music server or music streamer and the iPod / wadia dock solution appeals to me however I see a constant stream of wadia docks on here. My question is, is anybody loving this setup? If not why not? Thanks :)

I switched to the iPod and Wadia combo 2 years ago and I have been very pleased in doing so; I wouldn't want to go back to a CDP again. I compared extensively to my Meridian G08 before I sold the G08. Just be sure to purchase a DAC that does a great job at reclocking the signal.

The remote for the 170 is poor but not unusable, I use it daily. The new 171 is supposed to have a better remote.

Your second question, no, not with the 170.

I heard from a dealer at CES that Wadia sounds real bad and has some issues
No experience here. My results says otherwise. There a number of reviews out there as well if the OP does some looking.
