Bad sound when connecting iPod to stereo

Can anyone help with this one?
I am trying to connect my iPod to my stereo receiver. I have the 5th generation 30gb iPod. I hooked it up to my stereo (Sony str-de825) with a monster cable through the tape & video inputs and it it sounded low and muddy. When I turned it up the sound the receiver blew.
I now have a new reciever and bought a dock for the iPod, and I am getting the same crappy sound through the stereo and don't want to blow it again (obviously) but would like to be able ot use my iPod in my stereo. Does anyone have any idea of what's going on?
Thanks in advance.

  • My Nano has no sound when connected to car stereo USB

    My Nano has no sound when I connect it to my car stereo USB.  The display works though

    Why don't you try changing the input on the car stereo? I have a '13 Honda Odyssey and whenever I plug in my 7th gen nano I have to press a button labeled "USB/Aux" to switch to the Nano. I would also make sure to check that it is nano compatible, that the volume is up and that the stereo is on. Not to make you sound dumb, but you honestly might feel that way if you had the stereo off, I know I would (and have!)

  • Bad sound when connected to land rover discovery 4 media system (through lr connection cable)

    hello everybody. i need to solve a major issue concerning the ipod (nano and classic) connection through the original land rover cable (same as in jaguar's models) to the discovery 4 media system: the sound is extremely poor, low, fuzzy and sort of echoed...
    thank you for your help!

    Thanks LaPastenaue.
    I ran the network utility but only the macbook had a .local suffix.  I'm struggling to understand the info from Netstat to be honest and obviously I'm not keen on sharing my network data with the rest of the interweb.
    I did try moving the TC into the same room as the HH5.  I moved all the connections from the HH and plugged them into the gigabit ethernet ports on the TC and ran one Cat6 from the TC WAN port into the HH, using it as a modem only.  This was not the setup I was hoping for as I am running out of room for kit, but annoyingly, this does give me a solid AirPlay connection on all my devices when on the TC network.
    I did a comparison on each setup with netstat and I see that in the first 'Internet' table that the TC is not mentioned in the old setup(TC in separate room) but is listed in the 'Internet' table when I have it plugged up as above.
    It seems that whenever I have the music streamer plugged in to the TC directly I get AirPlay but if it daisy chained through the HH ethernet hub I get an intermittant and flaky AirPlay connection.
    Any more thoughts?

  • Squeeking sound when connecting but no display

    My ipod non 1G makes squeeking sound when connecting to my computer but no display and no functionality. When disconnecting from computer he is completely dead. Any idea which component is causing that so I can repair it?

    Yes it is.
    I've also tried putting it into different USB ports as well as 3.0 and 2.0.
    And im sure that the screen works because it works fine with my MacBook Pro, so im thinking that i need some sort of driver... Not sure though...

  • ITunes stop working when connecting ipod 4th generation on Vista

    When connecting ipod 4th generation to a computer running Vista Ultimate, ITunes (version 8) closes. Windows provide the following message - iTunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
    Thanks!

    i have the same issue... but i found a workaround.. i tried 3 diff OS's . didnt change the problem. To Add apps or music to ur Ipod... simply DISCONNECT the Ipod from the PC then add files/folders to library. Then connect the ipod back to PC and sync. it has no problem adding the files that way (at least in my case) I hope this helps... Good Luck =)

    Some progess I see. To be honest, i would not waste your time with trying to connect using wireless.
    You are likely to get poor connections and dropping out.
    If its working using a cable, then there is no need to bother with giving me the network settings, bu see how it goes, because sometimes giving the TV a static IP address can give better results.
    There is an example of a couple of powerline adapters on the diagram below. Just ignore the network switch unless you want to connect other devices which are near to the TV.

    This is how it's displayed: http://i50.tinypic.com/nd7vk7.jpg
    And this is what happens when I click properties and 'search for solutions': http://i47.tinypic.com/2iu3vrc.jpg (the box disappears after that, apparently having done nothing, when I search online for software it informs me my computer already has the best/latest installed)

  • I have an unknown error (-81) when connecting iPod Photo and Nano

    This error keeps coming up when connecting iPods to iTunes and no photos can be downloaded.
    I have downloaded the all the latest iTune and iPod updates

    Hello penel2907,
    This could be due to a hardware issue. You may try using a different USB port on your computer.
    Check for hardware issues
    Related errors: 1, 3, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020, 1669.
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

  • Lightning to 30 pin adaptor giving no sound when connected to docking station

    lightning to 30 pin adaptor giving no sound when connected to docking station

    I am always amazed in these forums by the number of people who think they are helping by asking obvious questions about the problem with no clue what the real issue is or how to help.
    That being said:
    I had the same problem after upgrading.
    Could boot your tablet, should fix the problem.
    1. power off the unit.
    2. Power on by holding the power button and volume up button at the same time.
    3. using the volume up and down button as a right and left curser, selectt the Android icon and press the power button.
    4. this will cold boot the system and the various dock functions should return.
    Warning: Selecting anything else but the android icon will reset the device to factory defaults and wipeout all your info.

  • Iphone 3 only blank light screen after fall on floor...say sound when connecting to Itunes

    the Iphone is not broken, but it only shows a light blue/white screen. It gives a sound when connecting to Itunes. I have tried ti hardboot but no help. im now trying to recover trough Itunes but the screen is still light blue. it can be the graphic somehow??
    What to do?
    The Phone was falled out of my hands

    The phone is CERTAINLY broken.  It worked immediately before you dropped it, and stopped working right after.  What makes you think that your dropping the phone didn't break it?
    You have 3 choices:
    You can bring your phone to Apple and pay for an out of warranty exchange ($149 in the US)
    You can buy another phone
    You can find a 3rd party repair shop in your area and see if they can ifx it.

  • IPod Touch 4th gen after updating to IOS 6.0.1 no longer plays sound when connected to a JVC KW-AV60BT through USB port.

    It used to work fine, but now when you plug in to the USB, it properly identifies the head unit in settings>General>About, and the JVC unit displays album art, track info and scrolls through music fine, but no sound comes through the speakers. I've tried to reset all settings on the iPod, I've tried the reset on the head unit, even disconnected the vehicle battery and nothing changes. I can also add that my sisters iPhone 4S on IOS 6.0.1 also performs the same when connected. I've tried my Touch in the USB port of my 2010 Chevy truck and that works fine. oh, and an MP3 player worked proper with the JVC USB port.

    - Try resetting the car system if you can.
    Sometimes this works
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:       
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    However. sometimes an iOS update breaks compatibility. In that case you will have to wait for a firmware update to either the care system or the iPod.

  • Ipod shuts off all sound when connected

    ipod shuts off all sound on Mac Book when connected.  Any ideas of why this is happening?

    Perhaps you may get better response from the MacBook community forum
    http://discussions.apple.com/community/notebooks/macbook
    But in the Sound panel of the System Preferences, what is output source displayed? ( "Digital audio out"?)
