Summary
Ah...valves...that old sound that used to mean so much has somehow been replaced by an empty, digital wall of sound. The Orbitsound T6 iPod Dock Station brings back old school valves to pepper your music with gorgeous warm overtones that will make you literally rediscover your music you thought you knew. You will also experience real stereo sound no matter where you are placed in the room! And it comes with an amplified speaker for you to turn that volume to the max and get the party started!

Manufacturer's Description
The T6 iPod Dock Station is a compact audiophile alternative to lo-fi docking devices that purport to offer iPod listening in the home, the T6 produces real stereo sound throughout a room from just a single airSOUND powered speaker.

Unlike conventional stereo docks, speaker positioning is non critical; the same real, warm stereo sound is experienced anywhere in front of the airSOUND speaker. The T6 has a stereo input to accept audio from a variety of sources, including iPods, PCs, televisions, CD and DVD players.

Valves have largely been replaced by miniature transistors for their size and cost advantages but have been rediscovered by audio enthusiasts everywhere for their sonic excellence. In the digital age, music recordings are clear and bright, but often lack the ‘warmth’ associated with classic recordings of yesteryear.

This is especially true with the use of MP3 and most other compressed audio formats. With its classic dual triode valve stage, the T6 pre amplifier reintroduces that musical warmth to the sound from an iPod or music files on a PC, delivering audiophile stereo sound without the digital ‘glare’.
