ONKYO ND-S1 AND I PHONE 3G

[seanygib]

Hi there,

I currently have an Onkyo CS 515 Midi system with an Onkyo DS-A2 ipod doc.

I am thinking of buying the new Onkyo ND-S1 but will need it to work with my Iphone 3G which my DS-A2 doesn't do.

Could you tell me if the ND-S1 will charge and play my itunes from my IPhone 3G?

According to Onkyo, yes it will, with the phone in flight mode.

Does the 515 have a digital input - I dont remember there being one. THe ND-S1 will not work without one.

As far as I recall, some versions of the CR515 receiver do have a digital input. Of course, the OP should check his system does before buying the digital dock.

EDIT - just pulled down the manual for the CR515, and yes it does, an optical digital in.

Well I have the DS-A2X dock which I believe is the same as the one you have but with a remote and it works with my iPhone 3G. When it is first inserted it does say it is not compatible and would I like to enable flight mode. I simply click 'no' and it still works fine.

I also have the ND-S1 and the same thing happens. When it is first inserted it asks if I want to put it into flight mode. Again I select 'no' and it works fine. Music plays fine, I can sync it to iTunes etc. Not sure why there is an issue
