A Must-Have
Compatiblity:
With Denon receivers - I suspect that all of the later model Denon receivers are compatible with all of the Denon iPod docks. If you're in doubt, contact Denon directly (there's nothing on their website) or check the back of your Denon receiver. If it has an input receptical labeled "Dock Control", you're good to go. Also, your Denon receiver's owner's manual should contain installation/set-up instructions for the iPod dock.
non-Denon receivers - You'll need to contact Denon directly about whether your non-Denon receiver is compatible and, if so, the installation/set-up instructions.
iPods - The Denon website has a chart of compatible iPods which really only lists the newest from Apple. We have 4 iPods in our house...three 2d gen Nano's (which were introduced in Sep06) and a new 120GB classic...and all worked well with the ASD-11R.
Installation:
I have a Denon AVR-888 receiver and using the receiver's owner's manual, installation of the dock took about 5 minutes. All this amounts to is plugging a cable into the back of the dock and receiver. Everything is well-marked and color-coded.
Dock Set-up:
After the dock was installed, I plugged one of our iPods into it and using the our universal remote, turned on our AV system including the tv. Our remote has an ipod menu listed on the remote's main menu screen. I went to that menu, then to "VCR1" (the Denon dock/receiver is apparently pre-programmed for the VCR1 output) and immediately the iPod's screen lit up and the display on the receiver and the tv told me that everything was "loading". Within a couple of seconds, all the lists on the iPod (playlists, artists, videos, etc.) were displayed the tv and the receiver's display. By operating the right-left, up-down, and enter functions on the remote's "wheel", I could do everything with the remote that I could do with the iPod's controls.
Use:
The dock is a sheer joy to use. It is simple, smooth, and does everything it's advertised to do. In addition, it charges the iPod and when you turn off your tv/system, it re-sets the iPod back to the iPod's menu page. I spent alot of $ on my AV system but this dock adds a feature and funtionality that goes well beyond it's $99 price. I consider it a must-have.
