Thank you for purchasing this Cambridge Audio iD100
digital iPod®dock. We are confident that you will enjoy
many years of listening pleasure from it. Like all
Cambridge Audio products the iD100 adheres to three core
principles – stunning performance, ease of use and
incredible value.
The iD100 enables you to get the very best audio and video
quality from most variants of the iPod. The iD100 also works
with the iPod feature of the iPhone®and iPad™.
The iD100 accesses the audio on the docked Apple product
digitally providing a bit-perfect low jitter digital output via
S/P DIF, Toslink or AES/EBU connections. These can be
connected to the digital inputs of a suitable DAC, Digital
Amplifier or the digital inputs on many A/V Receivers etc.
The iD100 allows the digital output of any audio file your
Apple product itself supports including lossless files for
unprecedented sound quality.
In addition, video outputs via Composite Video, S-Video or
Component Video* allow the viewing of video content.
The supplied remote allows browsing of the iPod / iPad /
iPhone via its own display.
Charging and Syncing of the iPod can both be turned On or
Off via the remote which can also control basic features of
Cambridge Audio Amplifiers and Receivers. The iD100 also
features an environmentally friendly low power (<1w)
standby circuit.
Introduction
