Iphone to hifi with RCA inputs

I have a traditional HiFI with RCA inputs. I want my iphone to handle streaming and itunes library to the hifi, what will give the best sound? Line out, apple tv (airplay/DLNA receiver), bluetooth receiver, other? Without resorting to an expensive standalone DAC.
Thanks

What is the best way to connect a Iphone 6 to a RCA input TV?

Hello, hopefully someone can help me out. What would be the best way to connect a Iphone 6 to a TV that only has a RCA input? Thanks for the help.

don't believe you can RCA is just a connector both composite and component use RCA connectors both are analog and only component support 1080i composite only support 480i or something
apple used to have pin30 -> both composite and component but with airplay mirror those went absolete

Connecting Mac Mini through RCA inputs

Is it possible to connect a Mac Mini to a television with RCA inputs? If so, how would one go about doing that?

+The Apple DVI to Video Adapter was designed to allow Mac Pro (with ATI X1900 XT), MacBook Pro, Mac mini and Power Mac G5 users to connect the DVI port to an S-video or Composite video device such as TVs, VCRs or overhead projectors with S-Video or RCA (Composite) connectors. The Apple DVI to Video Adapter is designed to work with the DVI port on the Mac Pro (with ATI X1900 XT) MacBook Pro, Mac mini and Power Mac G5 systems only.+

Watching video on tv with rca jacks using a ipad mini

Just wondering what I would need to watch video on my tv with rca inputs. I have an older tv so I don't have hdmi. Keep in mind I have an ipad mini, so I have the lightning charger, i.e. small plug in to ipad. Thanks.

Yes we are talking about the same thing I believe. Look at this http://store.apple.com/au/product/MC748ZM/A/apple-composite-av-cable?fnode=3a
This should be available in your store as well. Then you just need the lightning/30 pin adapter.
You might find another adapter to suit on ebay.

Connecting iPhone 4 with RCA Cable

I have an iPhone4 that I would like to connect to an older style stereo receiver. Since the receiver only has RCA input jacks, is there a 30-pin-to-RCA cable that would work? Thank you for your help.

Here's another option: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC596ZM/B/apple-iphone-4-dock?fnode=45
It has a mini jack connector, and you can use any 3.5 mm mini to RCA cable with it. It will also charge the phone if you use a dock cable and wall adapter.
FWIW, what I use is an Airport Express WiFi router, which supports Airplay. I connect the Airport to my stereo using its 3.5 mm jack and a 3.5 mm to RCA cable. Thus, the iPhone does not have to be physically connected to the stereo.

Wanting to connect an older G4 Powerbook running OS 10.4.11 to a Marantz SR4023 receiver amplifier with only RCA inputs to play iTunes through it on stereo speakers. Can anyone advise how to do this?

Wanting to connect an older G4 Powerbook running OS 10.4.11 to a Marantz SR4023 receiver amplifier with only RCA inputs to play iTunes through it on stereo speakers. Can anyone advise how to do this? Not tech savvy at all here, and will be happy with a simple hard wired connection. The Powerbook is old, and I no longer want to use it for anything but connecting iTunes radio, and my iTunes library to my stereo system.

Hi,
There were many PowerBook G4 models (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3065) with different ports (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2369).
If necessary, a manual can be found here:
http://support.apple.com/manuals/#PowerBook%20G4
Generally speaking, the output of a headphone port can often be used for the connection to an amplifier. You would need an appropriate cable (typically, 3.5 mm stereo plug to two RCA plugs). Choose a suitable amplifier input (high level). Do verify the allowed amplifier input voltage levels and the impedance before you connect.

HP Pavillion HPE-510f, Windows 7, 64 bit with front panel A/V RCA inputs

When i connect devices thru the AV inputs on the front panel, I cannot find an application that recognizes the device. For example, JVC Camcorder so i can playback or just playing music thru these inputs. Is there a driver that needs installling?

Hi Hodgewaco,
As indicated in the title, the front A/V RCA and s-video are input ports. To use those ports with your videocam you are going to need a capture program. ROXIO has commercial programs that should work with those input ports but check with ROXIO Sales. Usually ROXIO has a 30 trial period so if you are not satisfied the your can get a refund. Be sure to inform ROXIO about the exact model of camera that you are using, the output connection type and the format of the video stream.

I have a macbook pro with a mini display port out and would like to know how to connect the video from my mac to a TV with old RCA input video, or a TV with S-video imput. How can I do this, and do I need a video converter?

there's an adaptor for mini dvi to s-video

MacBook Pro to TV with RCA - Not working

Hi guys, I'm trying to connect my Macbook pro 08 to my new Samsung HD TV. I'm using a DVI-D to HDMI for the video which works great, but I'm using RCA to the headphone jack for Audio and it's not working. I've tried playing with the settings in my TV but cannot change the Audio input to analog. I'm guessing my TV thinks it's getting the audio from the HDMI, but the DVI-D does not carry audio.
Does anyone know how to get the audio to work with RCA cables? Or is there an adapter that can combine my audio into the HDMI input?
Any help would be appreciated.
(My TV has 2 HDMI ports, component, and RCA ports as well as a USB)

Yes, it is the ones on the left, but you're not going to hear any audio because your input selection must be on Component on the TV in order to get the audio out of that input. HDMI and Component are two different inputs on your Input menu selection. Do this, play some audio on your Mac and then flip to Component on the TV with your stuff hooked up. I bet you hear the sounds, but no video and when you're on HDMI, you see the video but no sounds. That's because it's two different inputs.
Also, your 2008 MBP doesn't support Audio passthrough the MiniDisplayPort, so you're kind hosed unless you do external speakers like Grant suggested.

RCA input connector?

On Sun Ray 1, 100, 150 models, there is an RCA connector on the rear for video input. However, I can't find much documentation on how to use this. The only application that I've been able to find that says it can work with this input is SunForum (a videoconferencing application), which is no longer available on Sun's website. Is there a simple "Show me the input" application, or an interface that can be used? I have also heard that JMF has a way of interfacing, but I don't know how to tell it to look there. Also, I don't want to have to write my own program to use the video in. Please advise.

Yes, there is a sample application called "vit" that will allow this. I believe it was never widely released but someone internal to Sun should be able to track it down for you.
It certainly works.

Bluetooth adapter with digital input

I'm interested to purchase a bose solo tv speaker together with a bluetooth adapter so that i can play music from my laptop using the bose speakers. Do you have any bluetooth adapters that I can plug into the digital input of the bose speakers instead of the RCA input so that I can enjoy better sound quality?

If i were still like to look for a blue tooth adapter with digital input, are there any out there?
Rocketfish makes one with digital but there are issues with it's range, Belkin and Harmon Kardon make them, but they're analog only.All of them are in the same $50.00 price range.
But the connectivity doesn't matter, you will not be able to tell the difference in audio fidelity between analog or digital using bluetooth.
Bluetooth simply doesn't have the bandwidth to carry any type of audio that needs a higher bandwidth digital connection. Digital Stereo maxes out at 1.41 Mbps, Bluetooth A2DP which is the best option for audio right now, maxes out at 768kbps.
There's a nice and consice article here that briefly goes over the technical details:

Connecting a Sony DVD player to Sony STR-DH750 AV Receiver with RCA cables

I have connected a Sony DVD player with RCA cables to Sony STR-DH750 AV Receiver at the VIDEO inputs. I get audio, but no video. How do I connect the DVD player to the AV receiver to get both audio and video?

Hi JB4,
Are you using HDMI cable in addition to your RCA connection? This HDMI cable is from the receiver going to the TV using the HDMI OUT port. Another option, you are using the RCA yellow + red&white right? you may connect the yellow cable directly to your TV if it has yellow port for video.
Thanks.

have u used the CD that came with the iPod because that does a lot for helping with reconization of the iPod.
but your biggest problem is that your using a Pentium not mention Windows and Acer! are you that cheap???
I'm going to get an iBook G4 buy December because their cooler processors(don't say a thing about speed because that would make you technologically challenged) and their wonderful OS that doesn't crash unless you find a way to make it and reliable software.

Why iPhone 5 keeps asking to input credit card security code when downloading free applications?

Why iPhone 5 keeps asking to input credit card security code when downloading free applications?

To download apps, even free apps, you usually need the payment information associated with your Apple ID. You most likely have your credit card name, billing address, card number and expiration date already on file or you would be asked for these too. Apparently though your security code is not on file with your Apple ID. To avoid being asked each time to download an app go to your Apple ID and edit your payment information to include the security code.

How can i sync my iphone with itnes on a new pc. when i tried to sync it said it will erase the contents on my iphone to sync with the new pc which has no contents

my old pc was running low in memory and i don't have enough space to back up in order to instal iOS5. so i got a new pc, installed itunes on it but when i tried to sync my iphone on the new pc, it said it'll erase all contents on my iphone and sync with the new pc which has no contents. it says iphone can only sync with one machine.
can you pls help

Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up your phone manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Do this:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your device without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPhone for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in iTunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0
About backups and what's saved:iTunes: About iOS backups
How to back up and restore:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
How to download apps for free again:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
Saving other data is also described here. How to back up your data and set up as a new device
You can also back up iTunes and restore it on your new computer How to back up your media in iTunes , but the iPhone will be erased anyway during the first sync.
