iPhone, iPod docks for home theatres

THE iPod and iPhone have become such fixtures in the lives of so many people that a whole industry catering to their integration with other products has sprung up.

Pioneer’s XW-NAV1 and XW-NA55 seek to integrate the Apple devices with home Audioand-video systems.

Plug the iPod/iPhone into the XW-NAV1 and you can play music through built-in speakers. You can also play video on the TV via a composite-video output on the XW-NAV1.

The XW-NAV1 is also a fully functional DVD player that upscales output with an HDMI
slot for use with high-definition TV sets.

USB playback of AVI videos, MP3 or WMA music files plus JPEG pictures is also available.

The XW-NA55 is more focused on good sound reproduction. It has a 2.1 channel fullrange speaker, a down-firing subwoofer, and component and composite-video outputs to connect to other devices.

How much: XW-NAV1 ($399),
XW-NA55 ($699)
