In line with the growing convergence in entertainment formats, Onkyo has developed a sophisticated interface device for incorporating an iPod into your home entertainment system. The ND-S1 digital media transport not only provides a seamless link between your portable media player and your home theatre, it also lets you sync an iPod with iTunes at the press of a button. A single USB cable connects the ND-S1 to your PC, while a single digital audio output connects it to your compatible A/V receiver, amplifier, or mini system. Accurate, high-definition digital sound is ensured, thanks to a high-precision circuit clock.

High-Quality Digital Audio Outputs
With the ND-S1, your iPods precious audio files are transported in pure digital form from the units optical or coaxial digital output. This provides a cleaner signal path than is the case with analog outputs, resulting in playback quality thats more faithful to the original.
A Direct Link to Your PC via USB Port
Through the USB port located on its rear side, the ND-S1 provides a singlecable connection to your PC. This opens up access to a wide range of audio and video content stored on your computer, which the ND-S1 can then in turn send to your connected amplifier, receiver, or mini system.
Easily Sync Your iPod with iTunes
Place your iPod in the ND-S1s docking slot, and with a single button press you can sync it with iTunes on your connected computer. Alternatively, if you just want to keep your iPod content as it is, the ND-S1 provides the option of bypassing the automatic sync procedure.
Recharge Your iPod While Enjoying Your Music and Videos
Your iPod will be recharged as long as it is sitting in the docking slot, and as long as the ND-S1 is connected to a power source. Even if youre simultaneously playing back a song or video, your iPod will continue to be juiced up.
