Gold Member Username: Matt12490California USA Post Number: 2246 Registered: May-05 | I got a new headunit that I want to use with my iPod, but don't know which would be best to use. It has an AUX plug in the back and also one for an IP bus but don't know which would be better. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_7576_3.5mm+6+ft.+Extension+Cable+for+iPod+-+ MP3+Player+headphone+jack+to+aux+input+or+another+headphone+jack.html or http://cgi.ebay.com/CD-IB100II-CD-IB100-iPod-Interface-Adaptor-for-Pioneer_W0QQi temZ300103147691QQihZ020QQcategoryZ58350QQcmdZViewItem Would they both give me the same sound, or should I shell out the extra cash for the expensive one? |

The ipod one is better I guess, you get better SQ too. I use the Aux myself because I don't like scrolling through my huge library on my headunit. |
