Connect iPod touch 2G to Reciever using RCA's? It cannot be this difficult?

Hello!
Need to connect iPod touch 2G to my reciever using RCA's?
But +I do not want to use the headphone jack....+ (I heard I will get higher sound quality using the bottom multi-pin connector on the bottom of the touch going to a left and right RCA's) +I have uncompressed (AIFF) files on my iPod touch and want the best sound quality possible.+
I found a couple companies that make these cables with one being the Cables To Go 4-Feet RCA Stereo to Dock Connector Cable for iPod and also the Nyko Stereo Link for iPod, but from reading the reviews on Amazon neither of them will work with the Touch 2g (or the iPhone for that matter).
I am also open to a simple dock of some sort that would provide me RCA outputs. Seems as if Apples universal dock would be great but it seems to have NO RCA outputs on the back of it.
If anyone has a solution to this I would be very very happy!
+I have looked high and low for a solution for this seemingly simple task.+
All I want is a connector that goes from the bottom of the touch to 2 RCA's so I can input this into
my home stereo so I can listen to my ripped CD's in high quality. A dock would also work too! I do not need charging or anything fancy....
(already have try the Tekkeon NavDock for iPod which was cool because I could watch my videos on tv from my touch but i dont need that)
+*just looking for something simple that works with the iPod Touch 2G.*+
*It cannot be this difficult?*
thanks, techo

As I stated above, the docking connector is not a "true" line-out, it does have a volume-tap so the volume control will work. It probably is somewhat cleaner than the headphone out (haven't measured it), but it is not going to be a significant difference as any improvement you get from the connector is severely limited by the DAC in the iPod.
You get no improvement in sound from using the pins on the 30 pin connector versus a 3.5 mm jack. If you buy a Universal Dock it is passing the signal from the 30 pin dock to a 3.5mm female jack, then you use the 3.5mm to RCA. Going directly from the dock connector to RCA will not improve the sound, the 3.5mm connector is not inferior in itself to the RCA connectors.
The A/V kit will get you the ability to watch your videos on your TV and output the stereo signal to your receiver. If you want even better sound for your music, get an Apple TV and use the HDMI cable to transfer the video and sound:

  • Can't connect iPod Touch to Airport Extreme using "Add Wireless Clients"

    I am unable to connect my iPod Touch to the local wireless network (Airport Utility v5.4.2) using "Add Wireless Clients..." in the Base Station menu.
    My Powerbook G4 connects OK (with the PIN - as requested)
    I can find no information in Apple's manuals or Help.

    You seem to be going about this backwards. Setup your Airport base station to:
    broadcast in all modes (b/g/n)
    No MAC address filtering
    Encryption set to WPA
    SSID on (you are broadcasting your network's name)
    DHCP on (you are automatically assigning IP addresses)
    On your touch, go to Settings > WiFi >Other Networks, enter your network name, tell the touch which security you are using (WPA) and enter your password. You should connect to your network.

    bluetooth on the ipod touch only allows for the use of bluetooth stereo headphones and peer-to-peer gaming between two ipod touches (or presumably iphones)

  • Stop programs from auto-opening when connecting iPod touch to PC

    I have a PC, and when I charge my iPod touch it wants to automatically open iPhoto, but cannot find it. So it asks which program I should use instead, so I stupidly chose Photoshop. Now every time I plug in my iPod touch, Photoshop automatically opens.
    Note: It's not about auto-syncing, I already have that disabled. The problem is I don't have a Mac, so I don't have iPhoto. It's trying to open iPhoto, but uses Photoshop instead.

    You may have inadvertently saved a picture from the web, if you hold the Home key it will snap a copy of the picture to your Touch. This is not the same as pictures you sync from iTunes. When you have a saved image on the Touch, that causes Windows to think it is a camera so it wants to open what it thinks is a related application.
    You can tell Windows to disable this, refer to this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1857
    Another solution is to connect the Touch to your computer and go into My Computer. Normally you won't see your Touch listed, but if there is a picture saved to the Touch as described above, it will show up as a "drive". Select it an you'll probably see the image saved to the Touch, so you can delete it (or move it to your computer if you want it for some reason).

  • I have an ipod touch 3rd gen.I used the function of erasing all content and settings and now i am stuck on this screen with the apple logo and a loading sign for the past 17 hours.CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i have an ipod touch 3rd gen.I used the function of erasing all contents and settings and now i am stuck with this screen showing the apple logo and the loading sign for the past 17 hours.CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hold down the on/off button and the home button for 20 to 30 sec, when the iPod starts and the Apple logo is on the screen release the on/off button but continue to hold the home button until you see the plug into iTunes screen.  Connect the iPod to iTunes and you should be good to go.

  • I had an ipod touch 4th gen and used the apple universal dock to play music through my stereo.  I just got a 5th generation and a lightning adapter but the adapter does not fit the universal dock.  Apple tech support has no solution, does anyone?

    I had an ipod touch 4th generation and used the Apple Universal Dock to play music through my stereo.  I just got the 5th generation and the lightning adapter but the adapter does not fit into the dock.  Apple tech support has no solution, does anyone?

    That is the adapter I purchased from Apple which does not fit in the Apple Universal cradle (which apparently is no longer universal).  However, I just created my own solution.  The cradle holds the dock connector at a slight angle so the adapter, which has a straight bottom edge, will not slide down far enough to make a connection.  Since the adapter has a plastic case, I used my Swiss Army knife to whittle it down to fit.  It's a no-tech solution, and free!

  • I lost my iPod touch, but someone was using it, the guy read all the imassage I sent to my iPod Touch.

    I lost my iPod touch, but someone was using it, the guy read all the imassage I sent to my iPod Touch. Right now, I cannot delieved imassage to my iPod touch anymore.

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

    Anything is possible.
    it could be off or not connected to wi-fi. 
    It could have been found and restored.
    In any of these cases you will not be able to find it.

    uncheck the music in itunes and resync to delete her music from your ipod
    then create another account using everything the same except change your email address from a ".com" to ".net"
    like me, I have an ipod touch and my mom has a shuffle, she doesn't like using credit cards online
    so we use mine for both accounts but with [email protected] as mine and [email protected] as hers
    that way we can both use the credit card and on the same pc but with different passwords too

    This usually meas that iTunes can't find the original files. I would recommend taking a look at the article below for some tips on locating that lost media.
