Does this dock work well with iPod Classic through an Onkyo receiver?

I use it with a Video iPod and a iPhone 4s.I don't know exactly which the classic is

I would think it would work ok. I docked my iPod Classic on the DS-A4 to a Technics receiver I have from the late 80's. Cannot use the receiver control options on the docking station's remote but works fine controlling the iPod.

It did not work properly with either the classic or the touch. I returned it. I would not purchase another Onkyo. The sound Is only average, and their programmers are as inept as Microsoft.

Works perfectly with my iPod Classic and Bose Soundlink Mini Bluetooth speaker.

I too am considering these two recievers and i have for quite a while. Im leaning towards the Pioneer for the simple fact it comes with the ipod cable. Although i think the onkyo has a 2 yr warranty and pioneer doesnt.

You should be able to pair it with your iPod even if it is on the dock if it had an IR sensor

My iPod is at least 4 years old and it works with the UP-A1 Dock. Just be certain that your receiver has the single Port Dock receiver in the back.Harold

From my experience, it should work with any dock. I have a Bose Sounddock and it works great. For the price and the ease of use, I would suggest buying the product.

that totally sucks!but thanks because I was literally about to order this dock, and I guess I can't now. You save me some headaches....Any recommendations? I have an Onkyo TX-SR608 and would love to be able to play my ipod through it....

just for the record, i owned one of these docks and a 2g ipod touch. It would play music just fine. It would not charge the ipod, so that made it just about useless for me.

I believe that this dock is compatible with most iPods. I have a fourth generation iPod and it works great on this dock. Definitely worth the money.

I have a Bose dock and it does play music. Sorry can't say about a Sony dock

Chris, it's compatible with the old classic iPod, but you can try using just the old cable connection on the iPod with a USB connection on the other end. I found out just the charger cable with USB connection allows the music to work perfect on an Onkyo, (compatible ) receiver. Chris, if the new classic 160gb has a lightning connection on it, just try the new connection cable from iPod to USB port and see what happen, FIRST. Then, go from there. Hope things work out.

Currently internet radio is the only thing I listen to using my Pure dock. I do however use the digital out to my own DAC and when one listens to a decent music stream in terms of kbps, the sound is great. I was considering purchasing a dedicated internet radio/digital content streamer component to complement my hi-fi but with the PURE dock and my iPod Touch, I no longer need to. Just remember that the sound quality always depends on the quality of the source.

No. But you can get an adapter very cheaply on ebay that will fit the dock. That's what I did with my older iPod.

Yes, I have an iPod hooked up to my Marantz SR4053 through an iPod dock to the aux input.

Not sure about iPod, but it doesn't read my iPhone 5. But I have everything ran through a receiver, so I use that which gives me access to my surround sound system.

I bought this system a couple of weeks ago and I can confirm that it DOES work with the iPhone 3G. As far as I know, everything works including charging, playing music, and using the Onkyo remote to change tracks, pause, play, etc. I was fairly surprised to learn that it actually charged my iPhone... probably the most functional dock I own - i just wish it was in my bedroom

I have an iPad (gen 1) and hook it up all the time with one of the auxiliary inputs and it works fine. You CAN'T use the docking station for the ipad, only an iphone or ipod will work there. So when you use the ipad you don't get any on screen info on your TV like you do when you use the ipod or iphone. The sound is really good and the base is way better than you would believe coming from the small sub. Very nice "all in one" system.
