The answer to this question is YES! and even better, there are cables that aren't *proprietary*whereby chargingyou an arm and a leg at your local iPod store. The headphone jack on the IPOD is just like that on any walkman, boombox, or even computer soundcard. The jack is referred to as a 3.5 mm stereo headphone jack (by size). It has 3 separate contacts: 2 of the contacts are for the separate (right and left) speaker channels, and the third contact (closest to the jack handle) is a common ground for the right and left. The most common input on stereos (home style in living room or boombox style) is RCA input jacks. The cable you are looking for has a 3.5 mm jack on one end, and a pair of RCA connectors on the other end (respective to right and left channels). These cables are a standard commodity at electronic stores such as Best Buy, Music Center, Target, Walmart, and even Radio Shack. The lazy types can order one via online websites for these stores.

How do you connect a Compaq laptop to a Technics stereo system to listen to the music stored on the Windows media player through a surround sound system?

Your laptop should have a plug for a stereo miniature phone jack, which is the same type used for stereo headphones. A patch cable which has this type of plug at one end, and a pair of RCA plugs at the other is widely available. By pluging the miniature phone jack into the laptop, and the RCA plugs into the input jacks of the stereo, you should be able to listen to the laptop over the stereo. This solution works, but the sound output through the headphone jack for most laptops is equalized for headphones. It is heavy on the base and light on higher frequencies. It will not be satisfactory for many people.


Can you Connect computer via usb port to stereo?

In most cases, no. A stereo will generally need a 3.5mm headphone jack, a 1/4" headphone jack, a SPDIF digital output, or an optical output. However, some newer systems do have a way to be plugged in through USB, and you can also buy adapters that plug into a USB slot and provide a 3.5mm headphone jack for a speaker to plug into.
