Connecting I-pod to Integrated Amplifiers

1/8 inch mini plug to RCA cable.
Available from Radio Shack.
No need for high $$$ cable.

Good luck!

Why would you want to hear an I-pod through it. Its not a very musical source. The sound from them are hoirrible at best.

Bignerd100 is right, just get a cable that has a 1/8 stereo mini plug on one end and dual RCA plugs on the other. Put the mini plug into the headphone jack on the iPod and the RCA's into any line-level input on your integrated.

I'm not advocating expensive cabling for that application but if that's what you want, almost every cable manufacturer is making an 'iPod' cable, some costing close to the same price as the iPod. I bought an Audioquest version from audioadvisor.com, like this but there are lots of other options. The cable isn't really iPod specific, it can be used to connect anything with a mini-jack output, like a portable CD player or another brand of mp3 player.

Make sure to connect to the dock (line out) as opposed to using the headphone out on the ipod. That way, you will be bypassing the Ipod's internal amplifier, and using your own amplifier instead. Plug the cable that the big nerd is talking about into the dock.
