Is the Ipod dock the new lightning connect or the 30 pin

Contrary to the description in the ad, the seller is shipping the LIGHTNING compatible version, NOT the 30 pin. I have pointed this out to Amazon and the seller, but neither has bothered to change the ad.

It is definitely for the Lightning connector. Pass on this and spend your money elsewhere.

I bought this unit, based on the responses that the Ipod connector is the older 30-pin type. ITS NOT ! Its the new Lightning connector. So if you have an older Ipod (like I do) better find a different unit, or find an adpater. Because this one is absolutely the Lighting-type plug.

I would have to say it is the 30 pin. But this system is by far the best mini system I have ever owned. I don't think you would be disappointed. I have had this Sony for about 6 months and I absolutely love it!!

The integrated dock is 30 pin, so no, not in that respect. The other aspects work fine, as you'd expect.

It's only compatible through Bluetooth or the 3.5 mm jack. Otherwise, no. The dock connector is the 30 pin connector, not the lightning connector.

Yes the dock is a 30 pin apple dock for IPods and IPads. I used my gen1 IPod touch, gen1 IPad, and a 60GB IPod on it and all three worked perfectly. I have Android phones as well and prefer using the Bluetooth function over plugging in a 3.5mm cable. The Bluetooth works very well (my phone/IPad are 15 feet from the unit with no loss or static) which is why I chose the Bluetooth version over the standard version.

Hi, Yes, it works just as well with both 30 pin and lightning. All functionality is there for both.

No, the dock is for the older models. The pins wont meet up with an iphone 5.

This speaker dock used the now-dated 30-pin connector. The newest iPods (all but the shuffle) have thenew lightning connector. There is an adapter, but it would be awkward to use in a speaker dock.

The docking is for the wider 32 pin config. If you have the newer thin 10 pin "lightning", you will need an adapter. If you do, some of the bargain one piece units work only for data and not audio. Also, if you use bumpers on your iPod, you will have to remove it in order to seat properly. I would suggest going with the apple cable adapter to avoid this issue. Hope this helps.

Dee: the connector is the OLD 30 pin connector, not the new lightning plug, so the dock will not connect to the iPhone 5 without an awkward plug adapter. Suggest you wait until griffin updates their dock with the new connector. Good luck!

There are only two kinds, if you have an older version it will have a larger connector that is 1 inch wide called a 30 pin. The newest iPads have a lightning 8 pin connector, they are approximately 1/3 of an inch... Be careful when ordering a connector the cheap ones don't always last very long. Read the reviews!

Yes, you can get Apple's 30-pin to Lightning adapter. You can find it on Amazon pretty cheap. This will allow you to use your 7th generation iPod Nano with the speakers' 30-pin connector. This is what I use for my iPhone

The short answer is "sort of". The connector built into the dock is the old 30-pin type. The 5th gen iPod Touch uses the newer "lightning" connector. You could possibly get an adapter or simply use the aux-in just for audio (although you will be giving up certain features such as charging and wake-to-ipod). As cheap as this is, you probably want to find another solution if you have one of the newer ipods or iphones.

No, it is compatible with old iphone and ipod models ( those having a 30pin connection dock )

Old version has a 30 pin dock connector. New version has a lightning connector. The old version works with the 30 pin to lightning adapter, so it can work with the iPhone 5 and above.

The dock feature is not compatible with the older iPod. You must connect your 30-pin iPod by a USB cable to the USB port.
