Info from an external site below
Wadia has upped the ante for 2011 with the new iTransport 171. This new model receives some serious performance enhancements. Upgraded internal power supply, higher quality circuit boards and a superior clock for vanishingly low jitter, audiophile grade capacitors and resistors, a beefy 24K gold chassis mount RCA connector for the coax digital out and by popular request, a Toslink output.
Sonic Improvement
Wadia unleashed their creativity, delivering an outstanding upgrade to the iTransport concept. Like a veil has been removed from the music, the 171 is vastly more open, transparent and dynamic with a broader sonic palette. Timbre is smoother and richer and the bass is finally Wadia-class. The 171 is a tremendous sonic upgrade, one we think is worth every penny of the premium over the 170.
Works With iPad and iPhone
Crushing the limitations of the first generation iTransport, the 171 is now fully compatible with both the iPad and the iPhone, unleashing the awesome capabilities of either device. To get Apple's approval for these devices, Wadia engineered a special new wired dock, which snaps into the top of the iTransport 171, giving it a sleek look and keeping the iPhone's cell phone capabilities away from the delicate circuitry within the 171. That it also happens to work great with the iPad is purely coincidental, wink, wink.
Control This
The 171 gets an awesome remote, a cool metal job, with functions the previous generation couldn't dream of. It feels great in the hand, lets you select tracks, albums, even playlists with ease and best of all, unlike the previous generation remote, this one is big enough not to be interesting to animals.
