iPod/iPhone Connecters
I just received the Griffin StereoConnect Audio Cable for my iPhone and it works great in my car. They run $14.99 each at Griffin.com but if you use coupon code "SIMPLYBEST1" you will get 20% off your order + free shipping. In the end I paid $11.99. The best part is the 6' cable is coiled so there is not a big mess.

MonoPrice has a 6" cable for .51 cents and with shipping its $2.

lol im sorry, but i find it so funny when people fall for stuff like that. Just because it says IPOD on it and it's really just an RCA cable to a headphone jack. Great marketing, IPOD is all in the name.

It was not just for iPod/iPhone. The box also lists Samsung, Creative, Sansa, Sony and Zune.....or i guess any mp3 player with a headphone jack (i hope all of them do).

U made a good choice. i bought one of those cheap ones for 5 bucks and had to replace it 2 weeks later. spend the money upfront so u don't pay for it later.
|
some of u guys are somewhat wrong, there's 1,000,000 of those cables that "seem" to be the same; they're ALL different, have different finish grade, different wiring, different protective shields, different ends (copper, gold, metal, etc); The cable in the first picture looks way better than those at MonoPrice and I'd buy it instead, I deal with monoprice a lot and their cables are cheap cheap
I even know how to make the RCA cable Monoprice sells (the one without brand name) you can get the heads/connectors at Radioshack; that's 100 light years away from what people like Griffin or Monster Cables could do. Imo it's a good price for a very good cable; I'm thinking of getting one myself now, and I really like the looks |
How about we address the fact that :mitsu: used circa 1987 rca hookups. And why no push button start ala Mazda 3?
|
Because my portable vinyl record player only has RCA output!
Good deal, I just snagged a griffin cable for 12 bucks, should be here tomorrow. |
do they make these cables that come with a retractible unit so you can make the cable as long as you want it to be and then wind it back into the unit when ur done using it?

I have a Radioshack brand RCA-to-Mini Plug cable I bought in college over 5 years ago. I used it EVERYDAY for 4 years, and now use it in my RA to play music on my iPhone. With 90+ degree heat, and all those years of use, still works great. Durable stuff.
Also, I'm no audiophile, but I enjoy my music through the RCA connectors over a mini-plug any day. I'm in the video production/post-production industry, and nobody uses mini-plug connections for audio imports and recording. Mini-plugs were designed for monitoring audio with convenience in mind. Maybe I'm wrong. What do I know. |
