Fatman Introduces iTube iPod Dock

This appears to be a trend with the second tube-driven iPod amp/dock combo hitting our offices in the last couple of weeks. The latest release comes from the UK’s Fatman who solicited help from the Far East to bring the iTube Valve Dock to market.

This unit comes in two pieces: (why? we don’t know…) a valve amplifier and a docking station that is compatible with all iPods, except the Shuffle. It comes with a remote so you don’t have to move your lazy arse from the couch and the amplifier has additional inputs plus a video output to connect video iPods to the Tele.

• iTube Hybrid Vacuum Tube Amplifier
• iTube Docking Station
• Brush / Glove for cleaning
• Audio cable to connect Docking Station and Amplifier
• Banana Plug speaker cables
