Features
■ With the Onkyo ND-S1 Digital Media 
Transport, you can easily play the music 
stored on your iPod through your Onkyo 
audio system and enjoy great sound.
■ The ND-S1 processes the digital audio sig-
nal directly from your iPod for high-quality 
digital audio output (optical or coaxial).
■ The built-in USB audio interface allows 
you to output the music stored on your PC 
digitally (optical or coaxial).
■ Music stored on your PC can be output dig-
itally even when the ND-S1 is powered by 
only the USB bus.

■ Easily sync your iPod with your iTunes 
music library on your PC.

ler, you can also use your Onkyo amp or AV

■ The ND-S1 charges your iPod while you 
enjoy your music.
1. When powered by only the USB bus, some iPod 
functionality is not available and your iPod will not 
be charged, so always use the included AC adapter 
when possible.
2. Only 
-capable Onkyo amp and AV receiver 
remote controllers are supported.
If the remote controller supplied with your Onkyo 
amp or AV receiver has separate POWER ON and 
STANDBY buttons, operation is as follows:
• When the amp or AV receiver is set to Standby, 
only the amp or AV receiver turns On.
• When the amp or AV receiver is already On, the 
ND-S1 turns On.
So to turn on the ND-S1 when the amp or AV 
receiver is set to Standby, on the remote controller 
supplied with your amp or AV receiver, you must 
press the [ON] button twice.
