I did, and it does. But why doesn't RMAA pick it up? When I first started making RMAA measurements (with other gear), I had a rather poor ADC, and RMAA did report high noise and low dynamic range...

It measures well (http://en.goldenears.net/14001), except that it's plagued by a high output impedance (22Ω). Red Wine Audio sells a mod (http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?&topic=113484.0) that...

iPods (and iPhones, I presume) are able to use AAC as a Bluetooth codec instead of the (lesser quality) mandatory codec, SBC. A compatible receiver (preferably "Made for iPod") is required.
