Onkyo dives further into the iPhone/iPod world today by releasing a line of three audio-video accessories. The first two revolve around Onkyo's proprietary U-port (universal port), which offers audio, video, power, and control connections in one port. The Onkyo UP-A1 is a dock and charger that connects your iPod or iPhone to your home theater system. It connects with component video and audio, and includes a remote. While it's one of the more attractive docks we've seen, the $109 list price seems optimistic. It goes on sale next month.
The second module is an HD Radio tuner, the UP-HT1: It lets you add HD radio to a U-port-equipped receiver (such as the TX-SR507). The ideas is that the buyer will create a network of UP devices, which all connect easily. The radio will list for $159 in July.
Finally, the company is releasing a non-U-port dock, for people who don't want to both with the universal port business. The DS-A3 offers component audio and video connections, and includes a remote. It's already shipping at the steep list price of $139.
