ipod question

papoosue

I'm planning to get either a Nano or a Classic (probably classic, just wish it had radio) and I wondered if anyone knows if you can connect it to your hifi system? Also, where would it connect to - headphone socket? My hifi doesn't have a bit for the ipod or anything like that.

Anyone know?

if you don't have a dock, then best bet is headphone to 2x phono cable into the hifi's aux port.

Thanks Kevsan. I'm not entirely sure what you mean though:think: - this is so I can listen through the hifi's speakers, yes? I think I need to check what's at the back of the hifi too (see if there is an aux port...)

You don't mention what the HiFi is or anything, but generall the 2 phonos is the Aux port - a red plug and a white plug. If you've got that input free at the back of your hifi, you'll want to buy a stereo phono to 3.5mm minijack (small headphone) cable. Can be found in the supermarkets, or cheaper on eBay/Amazon.

IMO the best way is to use something like this

You will need a Aux I/P on your HiFi and one of the cables on the page
