Turning back to the original question, with most iPods the jack at the back of the dock will output a line-level signal. Leaving aside questions of the quality of the D/A converters involved, in theory this signal should be pretty clean. Does the volume change when you adjust the iPod's own volume in your setup?

Yes, the volume does change from the BS1 when the volume is changed on the iPod. It is pretty clear now but I am going to get the apple component cables and get the zektor component switch.
hello, first post here at Beoworld,
i am highjacking this thread to ask what is the best cable to simply plug an ipod to a BS1 and where to get it in the states.
thanks
I get mine (have purchased 2 several years ago) on Ebay.
If you search for OLUFSEN and RCA you will get a bunch of choices. The ones with 2 cables I think are just inputs while the ones with 4 are in's and out's. I got the 4's (although I dont have a reason while I would ever need outs - but I am sure something may come up).
They are about $10-15 and generally worth it.
