You can’t turn around without stubbing your toe on another iPod dock. We’ve seen the solar-powered, the flat-panel and last week a gentle alarm with soothing light and sounds of the forest. But today’s dock is simply a cool-looking slab of technology meant to pump up the volume for your playlist. The Onkyo ND-S1 is for iPod and video home theater fans why a costly tricked-out stereo was to vinyl audiophiles.

The device takes tunes from your iPod, transforms them into a 16-bit analog equivalent and sends them to your stereo. The ND-S1, due out sometime this fall, also connects via USB to your computer and will also massage your iTunes collection.

No price was announced.
