RCA type plugs can only be used.
It is there as a "pass through". This comes in handy if your deck only has one set of RCA outputs. It enables you to "daisy chain" multiple amps together. You would run the RCA cables from the deck to amp #1's input, then use a another cable from the output on amp #1 to the input on amp #2.
Factory radios do not have RCA jacks on them. Only after market radios have them for hooking up external amps.
You need to have a deck that has audio in ports in. then get a wire that has RCA jacks and a head phone jack on the other end. The other way is to bye an I-pod ready deck and a cable that connects to the bottom of the player Or you can to an audio store and get a box that the wiring harness goes in to and on the other side it goes to the stock deck and is has RCA ports
Well there's a cool idea I never considered! :-) Should be fairly easy to do to! I have no idea if a 1/4 inch to RCA cable exists or not. If it doesn't though a 1/8 to RCA sure does and then just use a 1/8 to 1/4 upsizer and that part is taken care of. Plug the RCA's into the inputs on the deck and you're ready to go!
due to fact there are no rca outputs you must purchase a line level converter, which has RCA type jacks.

RCA stand for Recording Corporation of America. It is a developed standard for common plugs/cables of a certain configuration.
i am on my way to figuring this one out myself. im using this in car audio terms though. it converts the regular speaker wires, like the ones that come out of the back of a car stereo head unit, into rca cables, so you can plug them into an amp. rca cables are the ones that look like xbox or playstation video cables, except its only audio
You need a cassette deck take the RCA out of the deck the red and white. You need to get a adapter (Radio Shack)Rca to 1/8 inch to plug into your sound card then use this program http://www.download.com/Cakewalk-Pyro/3000-2646_4-10048869.html This is recording sequencer software which will take your analog and turn it to digital which you can then convert to mp3

There are some cheaper car amps which have inputs directly from the speaker leads of the radio, as well as RCAs. An RCA- only amp won't do, because the input level would be too high. I suggest you get a CD/ tuner with RCAs. they're cheap.
