Onkyo DS-A1 Docking Station Remote Control for iPod

Onkyo’s DS-A1 is no ordinary iPod accessory. In simple terms, this is an audiophile docking station for your iPod, one of the first attempts at giving us iPod convenience and hi-fi quality sound. This diminutive, white disc may be an unassuming bit of kit but it is nicely designed. The polished white finish looks rather good too – a perfect match for any iPod (it comes with adaptors for all types, including the nano) you choose to plug in. To top it all off there’s a rather fetching blue LED on the front as well.

If you’ve ever hankered after the convenience of multiple playlists or being able to play your entire music collection on random shuffle, or you just can’t be bothered hunting through stacks of CDs every time you decide you want a change of pace, it may be worth making the compromise. And at a sniff under 70 quid (US$79 - $100), it’s not half bad value either.
