makes ipod louderMake your ipod louder! Many people who get an ipod, no matter which model, are disappointed with the low sound output they produce. The volume produced by ipods, even at maximum, is not very loud at all. There are two distinct factors which can contribute to the poor sound production of the Apple Ipod. The first reason why an ipod will not play loudly is the music file it is playing. The music file being played by an ipod may not hve been edited to play at it’s maximum level. Some may refer to this as the music file being recorded at a low volume. Purchase Info For The Ipod Booster Can Be Found Here. You may or may not notice that you have some songs that are “louder” than others. More often than not, your favorite songs are the songs that are always “recorded lower”. The second reason why many are disappointed with the low volume output of their Apple Ipod is the unit itself. An Apple Ipod had no moving arts. This is why an Ipod doesn’t skip. Because an Ipod has no moving parts, unlike a conventional cd player which has a motor to rotate the disc at very high speeds or rpms (revolutions per minute), the Ipod requires alot less electrical power (battery power) to operate. To reduce the weight and increase the battery life of the Ipod, they have made them work on the smallest battery size possible and use the least amount of battery power. this is the main problem causing the Ipods to play at a reduced volume because sound output is the most power consuming function of a device like the Apple Ipod.

Weak performances due to the following battery sources for thr Apple Ipod:

Ipod shuffle - rechargeable internal battery source

Ipod nano - rechargeable internal battery source

Ipod (and video player) - rechargeable internal battery source

The Boostaroo Revolution will increase the sound output tremendously ( by 11.5 db) while also giving you the ability to share you music with friends because of the additional headphone inputs located on the Boostaroo Revolution.

Here are the detailed specs of the Boostaroo Revolution Ipod Amplifier as provided by the manufacturer’s website:
“Product Description:
The Revolution is an audio amplifier that separates the signal into individual stereo channels to drive two separate headsets or speakers, and images surround sound into 3 channels. Depending on the ohm rating of headphones, the Revolution will provide an 11.5 dB boost with no more than 1% harmonic distortion.

No difference in output or frequency response was observed when one headphone was plugged in or when 2 headphones were plugged in at the same time.

The input impedance was found to be approximately 500 ohms. The output impedance was approximately 1 ohm. Maximum power transfers occur with a 16 ohm load.

Frequency Response:
The Revolution employs similar output amplifiers to those found in CD players. Frequency response is equal to or exceeds specifications. Typical specifications are 20Hz to 20,000Khz +0/-3 dB 33Hz to 20Khz +0/-1dB (EIAJ CP-307 Method).

Output:

Up to 32 mW per channel, 2 channels driven
Distortion normally less than 1% with reasonable quality headphones.

Input:

Impedance 5K ohms@1Khz
2.6 volt (RMS) max input for no more than 1% distortion

Input/Output:

11 - 11.5dB boost from CD player (acoustic)
Voltage gain: 11.5 dB boost

Power Requirements:
VDC minimum: Cutoff may be considered as 0.8 volts per cell. Two AAAA cells are required. Use of alkaline batteries is suggested for longer playing time. Also works with rechargeable batteries; nickel-metal hydride type preferred. Battery life estimated at 20 hours, depending on headphone impedance and sound level. Input must be unplugged when not in use to conserve battery life.

Product Dimensions: Size: 4.3″ x 0.875″ x 0.832″
Weight: 3 oz for unit, 6 oz (170.10G) with 2 AAAA batteries
(Energizer E2 or equivalent)
Color: High Gloss White Finish”
