 Awesome! Provides Cheap way to Hack the SoundDock July 4, 2007
3 out of 6 found this review helpful
Like the previous post, this thing provides an easy and cheap way to solderlessly to hack an aux input for the Sounddock.
I bought this and and a Belkin Speaker and Headphone splitter. (The Belkin splitter is needed in order to fit properly over the Shuffle plug on the device, but other cables/adapters might work.) I then removed the existing ipod stand plate? and plugged this in.
I set the switch to speaker and plugged in one end of the Belkin adapter. Any input signal automatically activates the Sounddock. Now you have a fully functional female and male stereo headphone input for your SoundDock.
-->Total cost ~$20-25 and no soldering required. (Custom cables or adpaters run ~$50-60) You thought your ipod sounds good on this thing, wait until you hear a CD.

Very disappointing -- didn't work with DLO dock, and doesn't even come close to fitting in the Mac's Universal Dock.

I was kinda curious as to what this would do for my ipod shuffle and ended up finding out that this thing is just AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have the bose sounddock which unfortunately does not have an auxilary input, and i took a look at this and figured, heck, $13 (what i paid for it), it's worth a shot. I knew the shuffle has a proprietary jack, but the jack is only different on the third rung, and with the audio switch on, the third rung is disabled anywayz, which turns it into ur standard headphone jack. Be careful to NOT switch it to charging switch, who knows what it'll do. Anywayz, i took the extension cord that came with my bose quietcomfort 2 headphones, which were thankfully thin enough, and plugged it in. Electronics are idiots, all the sounddock knows is that there's an audio signal coming through and it plays it without complaining. This solution works great and is alot cheaper than any other method that i've seen.
