I was considering buying wireless connections for my ipod to my stereo system which would have cost me £75 on amazon, £100 out of a catalogue, and even considering splashing out on the official ipod hi-fi by apple, THEN i stumbled accross this nice piece of kit!! If you have Auxilary connection sockets on the back of your stereo/hi-fi [they are the red and white female sockets] then i’d urge anyone who owns an ipod to buy one of these and save themseleves a heap of money like i have. You simply connect the male red and white cables into the back of the female red and white sockets on your stereo/hifi, connect the other end of the lead into your ipod’s “charge” port, set your stereo onto AUX1 or AUX2 and then play your ipod however you wish! The sound is translated through your speakers on your stereo perfectly i havent noticed any reduction in sound quality at all. All in All i give this 10/10 as a cost effective way to play your ipod through a home stereo system, it isn’t much to look at but it certainly gets the job done, and hell i have been able to put my cd collection away into storage and save myself not only money but space in my bedroom. Buy one!

I was a little sceptical at first when I came across this item, but for the price I felt I had little to lose by giving it a go. I have used a similar adaptor to connect my amplifier to my ipod via its headphone socket and was disappointed by the lack of volume. But this little beauty gives much better volume and clarity by connecting to the ipod’s docking port. I’m an old fashioned sort with an old Arcam amp and Tannoy speakers, and this connector makes the ipod sound almost as good as the CDs themselves would have done. And it means I don’t have to fork out for an expensive docking station. Top Marks !

Like the reviewer above I was looking for a way to play all my favourite songs through my stereo without changing CDs all the time, and this little device works perfectly. Previously I had been using an fm transmitter to play the tracks from my iPod but this is much better.
The winding mechanism works well and it’s an extremely handy piece of kit. Highly recommended!

My son wanted an easy way of playing his Ipod through his bedroom Hi fi system.Chose this as some people reported reduction in volume if taking the output from the headphone iPod socket.This lead looked simple and very cost effective.Child’s play to connect to twin red and white AUX connections on Hi-fi then normal connection to Ipod .Result-Full volume and no loss of sound quality.Seemed as good as a CD on the Hi-fi or DAB radio quality.Highly recommended.I tried it with iPod Classic and 3rd generation iPod Nano-both worked no problems.(I purchased from alfasonix as the lead came with gold plated connections but I’m sure all would work)

My ageing stereo stopped playing cds and I was looking at the possibility of replacing it. The thought struck me that if I could play my iPod through the stereo my problem would be solved with the added advantage of not having to change cds. This tiny gizmo is amazing. The sound quality is great.The price is negligible. It fits to the video connectors at the back of my stereo with no problems. I couldn’t believe such a tiny piece of equipment could be so useful and effective. I’m impressed!
