Available mobridge digital pre-amp

[ougrad1]

Hey guys,

I'm "patiently" waiting on mobridge audio to make their new digital preamp compatible with the LR4 and noticed that the LR3 is now compatible.

If your not familiar, this gives you the ability to hook up an aftermarket amp via analog or digital toslink. It uses the burr brown DAC too. I'm currently using the audison bit ten but would love to get a straight digital output from our OEM HU without the crappy factory processing headache.

Anyway, see the link below if any of you are interested.

BlueTooth phone book?

This is the first that I have heard of anything that integrates with the Land Rover Harmon Kardon digital radio and BlueTooth system that we have.

I think my radio is just fine but would like to upgrade the BlueTooth to get the phone book on the radio display and perhaps a few more features as well. I have the early Land Rover "installed by the dealer/not at factory" BlueTooth system that lacks the phonebook and as it is circa 2005 software, not the best now.

It sounds like these guys have a BlueTooth interface that is up to date and works OK?

It looks like it connects via the MOST bus. It would be interesting to know / hear the advantages. I doubt the speakers could handle too much.

The description doesn't claim to be an amplifier though it just states it provides a connection to an aftermarket amp.

It's a "pre" amp, which allows you to connect to an after market amp. The value is that it offers a fully non-processed signal from our Harmon kardon system to be amplified with whatever aftermarket amp/wattage and speakers you want to use with the added bonus of having the sound cleaned up by a Burr Brown 24-bit DAC. If you have never heard the difference with that DAC, it's very noticeable, IMHO. Sound is smoother and well balanced.

I have the audison bit 10 D as a sound processor but think this would be the ultimate way to go for any LR owner who wants audiophile sound.
