Ipods & Vacumn Tubes...naturally

Ham and Eggs, Peanut Butter and Jelly, Burgers and Fries....and now Ipod & Vacumn Tube.

They seem to apologize for the idea from the onset by making you aware it has inputs for use with other devices, but my favorite part is when they mention this: "However……we can guarantee that the amplifier will add a real warmth and dimension to the music which other amplifiers are not designed to do."

Haha, so lets amplify compressed music then warm it up and "dimensionalize" it, sweet!!!

And all this time I thought the iPod was a digital source...

It does look awesome though.

I'd seen other tube systems for the iPod a few months ago, and they sure are nice looking. I really like the picture of this one with the tubes lit up.

does anyone know the cost of this unit.

Here's another one for ya.

At least this one throws in a CD player and an FM tuner, but it doesn't include a charger.

It's still more than I would pay, though.

It's about time, an audiophile device to listen to the 64Kbps Wagner operas I have on my iPod...

Kidding, it's not that bad of an idea.
