Musy have an iPod newer than 2007. iPod Classic 5th gen or older will not work. Apple changed the firmware after that model to enable USB audio. iPod Touch 3rd gen on, iPhone 3 on, and all iPads can output digital audio.

R is for Revised. This is the latest generation of the original AlgoRhythm Solo. USB audio delivered from Apple devices. The Solo -R is both a Digital to analog converter as well as a USB to SPDIF converter. You not only have the ability to use it as a free standing DAC but you can also use it to convert USB audio from your Apple iDevice and output it via a COAX SPDIF output to your high end audio system.

The Cypher Labs AlgoRhythm Solo -R ® have a multilayer circuit board, a main processor, DAC and other components. It is essentially a small computer. It communicates using Apple’s proprietary iPod Accessory Protocol (iAP) over USB. Authentication of the accessory to the iPod is performed using the Apple authentication coprocessor. Advanced software and the integrated processor control the decryption of the digital audio stream from the Apple device, then pass it to the on-board digital to analog converter for output to the analog output. You may used an external DAC via the SPIDF RCA jack, but your sound quality may degrade by comparison simply because the DAC built into the AlgoRhythm Solo is one of the best available. A headphone amplifier or home stereo amplifier is required. Do not attach headphones directly to the AlgoRhythm Solo’s line level output.
