How does one go about hooking up an ipod to a home stereo system?

    do you have inputs on your stereo? if so, get a cable & hook it up through the AUX channel. that's my best guess.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    You could probably buy a docking station that connects into your receiver

    you just need a Y cable. (costs about 4 bucks versus a docking station)

    stick the red and white ends of the Y cable into you home stereo inputs (either CD or TAPE), and stick the single end into the headphone part of your ipod.

    All set! Thank goodness it was easy. Radio Shack sells a good connector for $20.

    $20?

    You didn't let the dorks at Radioshack talk you into their "gold series" cables did you?

    Next time check out monoprice.com

    you will find the best deals on cables/connectors there for an unbeatable price. I needed a cable for my ipod/stereo hook-up and it cost me 3 bucks from them.

    I don't work for them, just trying to give you a heads up so you don't get ripped off in the future.
