I know nothing about iPods, but am needing one... What do I need with this Coby piece to be able to play it for a large room to hear?

Easy. You need any radio with an auxiliary in and a headphone auxiliary cord. Plug the cord into the player, and plug it into the radio system, and jack the volume up! Voila! Or get an Ipod Nano 7 or any player with bluetooth and a bluetooth compatible radio.

I usually buy a Y-Audio plug which plugs into the stereo outputs of the receiver and can plug into an iPhone or iPod. I usually carry it around with me because I invariably end up in someone's home and they love the music on my iPod they want to hear it through their stereo system. You can get it in Radio Shack for about $5 or $6.

I don't have an ipod so I can't test it, but since it is a Bluetooth connection it should play any music you ipod plays. The sound bar is only broadcasting the signal from the ipod not processing any of the content.

I have one of these as well. I never installed anything to use it. I just plug in a laptop and play spotify with it. We also just plug in our iPods, and use it. I hope this helps.

The one I have is a couple of years old and does not include an adapter that allows me to play anything with the new smaller cord...like the Iphone 5. (Not sure if the 5 was out yet.) I did just purchase an adapter that should allow me to play these things but I have not yet tested it. If your Ipod uses the new cord and has the smaller docking port, be sure you confirm if Pyle has upgraded their technology.

It plays AM/FM and Weather Bands - it has no input. I've used the earphone jack for a speaker for output- sounds pretty good. Lastly You could get a fm transmitter for the ipod and set the fm frequency on the radio.

It`s true, you need a strong music player to run this tiny guy. IE800 with an iPhone is not good at all, you can't hear all the details, actually weak bass, medium frequency sometimes chaos. If you want to enjoy most of things about IE800, you better purchase a good amplifier(the amplifier is much expensive than an IE800) or a top player like AK240($2,500) and SONY TCD-D8 tape recorder(You have to record you own tapes. The system is about $500 in Ebay).If you want to hear good music with an iPhone, I suggest you to check Sennheiser momentum($180)or Shure SE425($299) or AKG K3003I($998).

To listen to music from iPod, iPhone or other device with an audio jack, use a "patch" cord. Mine is about 12 inches, but you may want a longer one. It should have two "male" ends. One goes in your iPod, the other into the jack on the rear of the control panel. You can then use the panel's volume controls. Music can only be heard with the red"key" plugged in as we'll.

Fussy About Clock Radios,If you are looking for an iPod that does not need headphones then I suggest looking out for an iPod Touch. As far as I know they are the only type of iPod that headphones are not a needed item, but the sound quality drops to only okay.iPod docks do have speakers. They also charge your iPod (depending on what type of dock). Some docks can even function as an alarm clock. I hope this helped.Godspeed!~SWWPD

You will need a an audio cord with a 3mm male jack on each end. Connect one end to the earphone outlet on the iPod and the other 3mm jack to an input on the System III. Enjoy your unit. Paul Beaumont.

I use an iPod touch 4th gen (not amped) to listen to them. An amp will make them sound even better, but is not necessary.

You got to be smarter than your equipment your using.. Just kidding I have the same problem trying to get the FM radio to work on it, Bad design but cheap price so you got to expect that. I would reccomend buying a IPOD lol

Anything with the standard 1/8" audio jack (such as most/if not all phones) that can play music will suffice. Personally this one that was purchased through my account was used with an Ipod.

No. You need to connect your iPod to an amplifier. The speakers connect to the amplifier

As long as the iPod has a 3.5mm headphone jack, which is the normal standard for such things, it'll be fine. If not, or if you want to use it with other devices, then you'll need a jack adapter. These are really lightweight but not necessarily "fragile" so you're hardly aware you've got them on and the sound is really good.

I wish I could help you but I keep the boombox in my workshop at the cabin and just have used my ipod. If it ever warms up I'll take a ride and check it out.

Here's another viewpoint for your consideration. You might want a nice big classic with tons of storage for *all* your music and other files (I have a 60 GB with tons o' songs, podcasts, and photos). I am currently considering a cute little shuffle or nano to hold a small subset of my total collection, for taking out on walks or whatnot when I want some of my music accessible and don't want to lug around my heavy 60 GB 'pod. So there's a possible reason why someone might want 2 iPods. :-)
