Cable for iPod

Audience, Revelation Audio and Signal are the mini-plug to RCA adapters I know of. Regardless of copper or silver, it kinda depends on what you're hoping to achieve soundwise. I understand Revelation Audio cables are on the revealing side, while Audience cables maybe less so.

Cooper and use the rest of the budget to get a Naim I-Supply for the I-Pod. Otherwise you will be exposing the speaker to damage from distortion, especialy if you use the Apple Lossless or the AIFF to encode your music. Those two types of files make the I-Pod hard disk to run continuosly, therefore drain your battery and/or place a great demand on the stock charger.

Audience makes one for $99.00 and it is excellent. I use on for my iPod and my Airport Express with great results.

Try the Zu Cables Pivot. I liked the mini-RCA so much I decided to buy another in mini to mini.

How much does it matter how good your connection is when your IPOD is recorded with only about 7% of the original CD recording - unless thats is you use up 15x the space in your IPOD when making recordings.
