The iPod Hi-Fi is a high-end speaker system for iPods designed by Apple Computer and introduced in a special event on February 28, 2006.iPod hi-fi Introduction, All about Steve Jobs. 2006-02-28.
==Description==
The speaker's sound is generated by two 80mm custom-designed drivers and one 130mm woofer. The iPod Hi-Fi uses the 30-pin dock connector, optical connector, or headphone jack for audio input. Ten universal dock adapters are included for various iPod models that were available at the time.
==Market reception==
The iPod Hi-Fi was criticized for its high 349 price and was discontinued on September 5, 2007.
==Usage with modern devices==
Newer Apple devices may be connected (and charged) through a Lightning to 30-pin Adapter, though an extension cable may be necessary as the newer devices would not fit or be able to stand within the old 30-pin dock.Apple's Lightning to 30-Pin Adapter Torn Apart, Reveals Several Chips and Copious Glue by Eric Slivka, MacRumors. 2012-10-11.
Devices with only a USB-C port can be daisy chained through a USB-C to 3.5 mm Headphone Jack Adapter from Apple, or a third-party USB-C to Lightning audio adapter (to a 30-pin adapter). Devices that support Bluetooth can be paired through a third-party 30-pin Bluetooth audio receiver. However, these options only support audio functions and not charging.Anker USB-C to Lightning Audio Adapter by Anker, Amazon. 2019-04-24.Questions & Answers for USB-C to 3.5-mm Headphone Jack Adapter, Apple Inc.
