Most docks leave the iPod charging all the time, which can damage the battery. The rDock uniquely features a programmable "charge-off" setting. During research, it was discovered that the sound quality took a major leap when running off the iPod battery alone, with no charging going on. This is akin to some audiophile pre-amps that run on a rechargeable battery to achieve independence from mains Noise. The improvement in sound was so marked, that the rDock now has charge off as the default setting.
