What are they saying about iTube...  

"There's enough power to fill a room with sound that is (again) warm, smooth, and balanced. Bass is tight but not overpowering (even at the highest bass setting), and the mids and highs mesh very well with the whole."
-- James Kim, CNet, Aug 2006

The system instantly convert digital tunes into music with “tube warmth” that audiophile has come to know and enjoy!

Vacuum Tube vs. Solid-State

 

Vacuum tube audio systems are known for their ability to produce smooth sounding audio playback. Music that comes out of vacuum tube systems in general sounds more natural and smooth to the human ears. In the contrary, sound produced by solid-state systems is characterized as cold and digital.

 

Vacuum tubes are usually found in high-end audio systems because of their high overall components and system production cost as opposed to solid-state which is mass produced at low cost. GINI iTube is one of the few affordable vacuum tube audio system in the market today.

 

Application

 

The vacuum tube amplifier of the GINI iTube system is a full functioned integrated amplifier that can be driven by most digital sources such as iPod, CD players, MP3 players, tuner, etc.

 

iTube, along with iConec makes a perfectly great sounding iPod audio system that promise to amaze!
