Wadia ITransport

Just purchased Wadia IPod dock for use with my IPod Touch. I am using Canare 75ohm cable as an interface with my Cambridge 840C AZURE CD player. Reading reviews about the IDock and importing Apple Lossless files, I noticed a difference (small)but noteworthy, where the Dock seems a bit compressed and lacking the resolution and dynamics when compared to the CD. I'm not quite sure, but I thought I remembered with lossless files, the Dock could actually sound better than the CD.

Thank you, I look forward to your thoughts and comments.

The noise progressed, and my dealer replaced the unit and then the noise was gone. Additionally, if you have $279 burning in your pocket, the CIAUDIO power supply made a marked improvement in many areas of sound quality, the most remarkable of which was an incredible increase in sound stage. The top end increased in extension, sweetness and articulation, and the bottom extended as well. Again, I'm not sure I'm going to keep it as the improvements were not like a light switch was turned on, but if you want everything you can get out of your Dock, go for it!
