Tube Amplifier with iPod Dock

[Wishbone]

Does anyone have one of these? And does it sound as good (old time amp sound) as my brother is telling me?

I don't think that's the right link... :confused:

Peterod has 17 of them. One for each room in his house.

Sounds like a cool idea, but the sound quality in a lot of music that has been converted to MP3 has been degraded so badly, I think you're spending a lot of money on diminished goods.

Looks like there are some DIY tube amp projects out there, which might be kind of cool from a complete geek perspective.

Here's the DIY project that was on that list - its in Mono. I wonder how hard it would be to modify to stereo?

This. Garbage in, garbage out.

Agree with Dick Brain and CRAW, if they ripped in lossless, you have a chance at good audio quality, but if they are in a lossy format, no tube amp can save them. It will however eat a hole in your bank account. Tube Amps are expensive shit.
