i ordered an eclipse cd8455 head unit and i havent been able to see the connectors in the back yet, and just had a question about the AUX-in, which i will most likely use to connect my ipod. i have an adapter for my ipod to hook it to a home stereo with the red a white jacks from like an A/V connection. (hopefully thats clear enough) Is the AUX connection on the head unit like this, that it would accept the connection from what i have now? or do i need to buy something else? thanks in advance. |

The aux in is a regular rca style conector, so it should work. FYI, make sure you use the line out on your ipod if you have one, and set the aux in input sensitivity to match.

the face tilts I was playing with one yesterday but went with the CD5444 instead. I did not like the look of the new eclipses, I jsut hope I don't miss all the new features, I am having second thoughts.. |
