iPod & iTunes: The Missing Manual, eMatter Edition

258 iPod & iTunes: The Missing Manual

Using iTunes with

AirPort Express

when you want to connect the iPod to external computer speakers. The kit sells for

$15 at www.griffintechnology.com/products/ipod_cable_kit.

Tip: When playing your iPod through another audio system, don’t spin its scroll wheel up to the highest

volume. You risk distorting the sound by overamplification. Instead, take the volume level on the iPod to

about half the maximum and, if you still need more volume, use the controls on the receiver. This tech-

nique gives you the best audio quality.

Monster Cable, the venerable cordmeisters favored by AV fanatics, has even

jumped into the iPod accessory game. Its gold-tipped, 7-foot Monster iCable for

iPod goes for about $30. The company’s Web site has more information and a link

to stores that carry Monster cables at www.monstercable.com.

If you’re tired of dragging your dock and cables back and forth between the stereo

and the computer, look for the iPod Stereo Connection Kit in the iPod Accesso-

ries area at http://store.apple.com. For $80, you get an extra dock, FireWire cable,

iPod AC adapter, and a Monster miniplug-to-RCA cable.

Using iTunes with AirPort Express

Two very exciting possibilities arrived with the release of Apple’s $129 AirPort

Express mobile wireless base station in mid-2004. The first was that you could now

have a portable base station so that you could make your own super-fast 802.11g

wireless network wherever you found a broadband connection—whether it be in a

hotel room, a board room, or a play room.

Technology’s iPod

Home Connect Kit gets

that iPod pumping its

playlists through your

home stereo in no

time. Just plug the

small end into the

iPod’s headphone port

and the twin RCA plugs

into the audio input

jacks on the back of

your stereo system.
