Best RCA to mini adapter or RCA to mini cable?

To connect an iPod to either a headphone amp (1/4" mini) or a conventional amp (RCA), you can't do much better than contacting Ken at Audio Line Out and getting a one-piece cable. He has a few options.

If he doesn't have one already made to suit your purpose, he will make one. I emailed him a request one Wednesday night for a custom cable, and it was in my mailbox on the Saturday morning.

I don't know about a laptop connection - they typically don't have a line level output.

Regards,

I bought both from Radio Shack. I prefer the RCA to mini adaptor. I get to choose my IC and the length I want although I wouldn't go to long.

I have used a Zu Cable Pivot and it is excellent.

I second the Zu Pivot. I have also used a Cardas mini-to-mini and I prefer the Pivot's harmonics. The Radio Shack cable (which I also have) doesn't bear comparison to either the Cardas or the Zu.

Thanks everyone, I appreciate it.
