    It's a 3.5 mm stereo jack to rca phono usually.

    Try any shop that sells musical instruments or Maplin. You might even get it in Tesco.

    Cheers Fuzzy, I picked on up in a tv/hifi store. 3.5 RCA is right. 4 euro.

    If you really want to know, it's because you can access the Line Out signal as opposed to the amplified signal. The latter results in the signal being amplified twice which deteriorates the signal particularly because the ipod or any headphone output socket is not designed to operate at the voltages required by line in sockets.

    Indeed nereid, you're on the ball.
