Ipod Query with CAD AU adapter £30

[rockport]

I wrote the following on crimbos eve and dispatched it to the peeps over @ CAD

Hi guys,

I have a mini Ipod coming for xmas and was told i may be able to find a lead to connect to my CD changer input of my stereo (Pioneer 6400R)

Ive checked the site, but cant find my model listed. I dont know if this is because their are to many models to list or simply becuase there is not one available.

Any information for can provide me on the subject would be deeply apreciated.

Many thnaks.

This was the reply i got :-

Hi

Any Pioneer P series headunit (e.g. DEH-P6400R) which supports an aux-in can play an external source via the CAD Value AUXPIO adaptor, available here: http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=3135

We are unsure if your headunit supports auxin or not; I would recommend checking in the manual, or looking in the setup menu for the option (you will have to activate the aux-in).

I hope this helps.

So for my next question... does anyone know if the 6400R has a AUX in? Im sure it does but i dont have the manual to hand. Nor can i find any detailed specs on the net to show me.



Heres a pic of what the adapter looks like :-

I still cant see how those RCA looking things connect to the Ipod, unless it connects the otherway round? Can anyone clarify?

is there a plug like that on the back of your h/u?

id imagine that you would have to get a 3.5mm jack to rca lead to connect your ipod through the headphone out

 

[CocoPops]

Yep, as Dink said.

You then buy a 3.5mm jack to twin RCA. Should be about 8quid maybe from a hifi shop.

hahah ive just bought one of those leads. Just plug one end into ur cd changer plug on the headunit then plug the 2 RCAs into mini jack to RCA/phono as dink says and put the headunit on AUX.

if u have a multi changer attached to ur headunit u need the RB-CD20

the proper pioneer ipod connection isnt out yet, thinkits availible in jan @ about £50 in the US but not sure of price here.

with the proper lead u can control the ipod from the HU, with this lead u still have to do it from the ipod, Dinks right u jus need a lead like this
