Cambridge Audio ID50 Premium iPod Docking Station
We love the iPod and our hi-fi systems do too! Let’s face it, nothing beats the convenience of having all your favourite tunes at your fingertips. But once you get your iPod home, are you really getting the most from it?
Enter the iD50, an iPod dock on a mission to actually improve the sound of your digital music thanks to Cambridge Audio’s quasi-differential noise cancelling technology.
The iD50 also enables you to watch iPod video through your TV and control it from the comfort of the sofa using navigation on your TV. There’s no better way to make the most of your iPod once you’re home and you’ll be amazed to hear just how much you’ve been missing out on.
The majority of Cambridge Audio's Navigator remotes are also able to control basic iPod functions so you can choose your favorite track from the comfort of your sofa.

During the ‘70s, the P40, P50 and P110 amplifiers established the international reputation of the Cambridge Audio brand. The ‘80s saw Cambridge Audio launch the world’s first two-box CD player. In the ‘90s, the DacMagic was the first product in the company’s history to win an esteemed What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision Best Buy award. The new Millennium saw Cambridge Audio continue to innovate with its award winning DAB digital tuners and of course the highly-acclaimed Azur range.
