Find "the Best iPod Audio Video Cables" for your Apple iPodProduct:
Manufacturers of Ipod Audio Video cables make bulk quantities of cables for big name brands such as the iPod and other products. One cable manufacturer will supply cables to different companies using the same basic design. The color, style and price may vary, but the wire is basically the same... Cables are re-branded under the labels that you see (and are familiar with) in the stores... What does this mean for You?Often these larger manufacturing companies make cables for many, smaller distribution companies and sales channels. Essentially;You get to pay more for the same product at the department stores that you could get through a wholesale market chain for much less. If you know where to look... Cables you might need to connect your iPodConnecting the audio video cables and ipod to your audio system; Which is the most common and which is the highest fidelity connection? 1. Analog 1/8inch stereo jack from analog output to RCA male connectors. This is the most common way to interface the ipod with your media device. This is the jack used for headphones and other stereo speakers system hookups. It uses the onboard DAC built into the ipod. Wire & Cable - We carry a large selection of bulk reels to completed cables in every style and length. 2. Digital ipod audio cables from the multi pin connector outs (usually used for syncing the ipod) A less common way of connection and thought a step up from the analog 1/8 inch stereo jack. 3. An ipod docking station with attached speakers and music playback system. Make sure that the ipod dock station you are purchasing uses the digital output from the ipod speaker dock and not the analog outputs. The on-board analog to digital converters on the ipod are not that great. But they are typically better than the cheap docking station converters so do your home work on this purchase. Most of these use ipod mini speakers which can sound rather poor. 4. A digital transport station similar to the Wadia ipod dock. Not exactly cheap, but this is an elegant solution for interfacing the ipod with your music system. Usually not used with ipod mini speaker but a full HiFi stereo sound system. This is the highest fidelity method to connect to your ipod. 5. Ipod portable Speakers such as the Sonos S5: This system actually does not dock the ipod or iphone but allows the use of the iphone as a remote control to stream audio from a computer wirelessly.

You should use the solution that makes the most sense for you. In many cases this is the easiest and most practical cable. I recommend Parts Express Wire & Cable - They carry a large selection of bulk reels to completed cables in every style and length.It may depend on how many different devices you use with your ipod and the types of connections on those devices. The highest fidelity connection is worthless if it is a pain to use. Go with the cable that suits your needs the best. Are "name brand" iPod audio video cables the best solution for your ipod?
Only if you like to pay the maximum amount of dollars for the same performance you can find elsewhere. There is not much electrical performance variations of cables between different brands. Are there other brands of lower cost cables that will perform just as well?Yes, and they are usually substantially cheaper than what you will find in the department stores. Wire & Cable - We carry a large selection of bulk reels to completed cables in every style and length. These are still name brand cables but they are made by cable brands that supply many cable companies cables for them. In other words; you can save a lot of money by cutting out several middle men. What difference will I notice between my ipod audio video cables?You are not likely to notice any difference at all between the various cables. (cables of the same type -such as RCA's) There may be small changes from one design to the next but they are all very similar in build quality and sound quality. Even a very cheap cable should sound remarkably similar to the expensive name brand ipod cables that are color coded for your device.

Customer Testimonials:
"Peter, I just wanted to drop you a quick note and say how impressed I am with these speakers. They are EXACTLY what I was looking for..very very small with big sound.
My wife loves them as well. They look great, and you hardly notice them at all sitting on the shelf. They integrate perfectly as surrounds. I have them crossed over at 150 as you recommended...simply fantastic. I only have about 15 hours on them so far, so I know they will only get better. You really have something here. Kelly ~ Montana USA
"I found these speakers by accident and after reading all the available info and after several emails back and forth with the company owner I decided I had nothing to lose, so I ordered a set of 5 mini cube speakers.
Peter was very helpful and patient and always responded to my emails within hours.
I have had the speakers set up for a couple of days and they sound great; they are everything described on the web site.
The sound from these small speakers truly is awesome.
I replaced a set of very high quality but also very large speakers and have not been disappointed... and the wife loves not having four large speakers in the living room.
The sound from these speakers really does fill the entire house, I was concerned about the small size of the speakers due to the fact I like to listen to music and movies at volumes most would consider loud.
These speakers are more than capable of playing at volume levels louder than I ever need while also maintaining very high quality sound. ~by; William (Corinth,TX)
"I ordered these speakers in the hope of bringing some life to my entertainment system... I didn’t think it would bring room filling sound to my entire house. These speakers not only fill my den with crystal clear sound, but radiate great sound throughout the house. Thanks for such a great product!" Celia ~Malasia IP#110.159.58.99
"these speakers breathed new life back into my music, I had no idea such small surround sound speakers could perform so well." John from US IP# 24.177.193.45
"how you got so much performance out of these speakers I have no idea -Great product!" Andrew from Denmark IP# 130.225.22.254
"nice speakers, nice finish, blended in with my room well and the wife is happy too. Great sound presentation! Now I just wish you guys made a subwoofer." Kyle from US IP# 98.233.53.244
"These surround sound speakers are amazing! After running them in for a couple days, I decided to play some tunes, and they never once sounded distorted or strained...
While I know they should be paired with a good sub-woofer bass system, I think they sound good enough that I can wait until I have the money to buy a really nice sub." Fred US IP#76.208.13.182
"Wow, what a great set of speakers. I really understand what you mean by a large sound-stage." Sandy from US IP# 137.100.121.30
"Recently I came to realize that my HDTV was better than my sound system... So, I decided to piece together a better sound system. Running across your site (and these speakers) was the best thing that has happened to my home theater.
My current system is; an older receiver, a home theater PC with a blue-ray player drive, and one pair of your Mini-Cubes. (for now; I plan to buy 3 more speakers soon)" Kevin US IP#98.179.199.26
"Purchasing a new set of surround sound speakers was a must for me. My old system looked awful and sounded even worse. The quality and look of your Mini-Cube speaker were a perfect fit.
Once I reviewed the ratings and tests I knew they would be perfect. I will be sure to look for more information and products from you. I can't believe the performance of these surround sound speakers for the modest price. I would recommend these speakers to anyone!" Mike US IP#172.16.2.142
"The overall quality and dynamic capacity of these speakers really took me by surprise. Their imaging is distinct, tonality is crystal clear, and oh yeah... they pump out some serious volume!
I feel like I have stolen speakers that I can't afford. People that spend more are Suckers!!" Micah US #Ohio
