Looking for 30 pin to 8 pin adapter for iphone 5s to play music on audio system. Has anyone found an adapter that works?

This is the most reliable adapter, however mine broke within a couple months.

This one broke after only a few uses. The 8 pin part pulled right out. It did work initially.

I haven't even tried yet. Going to just buy a new Ihome radio since it's not much more then a adapter.

This worked for playing music and charging the iPhone 5. It probably works for other Apple products. The non-Apple adapters did not work.

Further info. Just talked to my daughter. Unfortunately, the adapter I spoke of allows the iPhone to be charged while in the dock but it will not play music from the iPhone.

No. This is an iPod pin connector. I was able to use it on an iPhone 4s most recently. I believe they sell an aux cable that can be connected to the back attachment of this adapter. In that case any music playing device with headphone jack would work.

My daughter directly connects her i-pod to this model, but I cannot speak to the iPhone 5s. So sorry.

Uses 30pin, but DOES work with iPhone 5 when used with Apple's 30 pin to Lightning adapter.

I have an iPhone 5, and this works fine. What I needed to do was to go to the Apple Store and buy an 8 pin to 30 pin USB Cable Adapter Converter. You can find that on Amazon as well for a better price.

The VGA adapter makes it possible for the iPhone 5 to work like the old iphone adapter or you could just get a lightning adapter for like 12$ if you only want it for music function and not video.

I am looking to get this device because I have a Monster iCarPlay FM transmitter adapter I've used for a couple of years with my iPhone 4 and 4s. It has the 30 pin adapter. My new iPhone 5s has the lightning pin adapter. My understanding is that using the Apple version of this device, I can continue to use my Monster iCarPlay (which cost $80 brand new when I got it). The generic versions of this device do not seem to transmit sound.

Everyone else has missed the fact that you said you're using an adaptor with it. Though I noticed I still am unable to answer because I use my ipad2 for music in the car and havent gotten an adapter to even try my iphone5.

I've been using one with an iPhone 5S, a iPhone 4, and occasionally an iPad 4th gen with a hearing assistance app. First, save yourself a lot of headache and get one of the two types of real *Apple* Lightning to 30-pin adapters. If you want to use a (NON-microphone!!) headset at the same time with this Tascam on a 5S you'll need the long adapter. On the second question, this interface will take even up to close to a line level signal if you turn the pots down near minimum without issues. On the third question, I expect that if your mic doesn't saturate or distort on something like 120 dB SPL this widget won't either with the volume pots set appropriately and the limiter works pretty well.

you must purchase this connector to listen in the soundock Phillips DC220 Finco (TM) 30 Pin to 8 Pin Adapter for Iphone 5. Best regards

You will need a lightning to 30-pin adapter, says the nice customer service rep from Philips. We are going to try this, so I can update this answer after Christmas! Update: The adapter works perfectly, both for charging and for playing content from the iPhone 5.

Only 30 pin connector .. I just upgraded to iphone 5s and can no longer user this :-(

This is for the 30 pin, you would need an adapter to use with the 5s. I love it though!

Because Ipod 5 has a smaller Adapter port, im not sure what systems work for it, do research online, the only other option is using the Headphone jack and use a double sided cord to plug into most standard systems

Our 30 pin belkin failed pretty quick , right after the time I could exchange it. I do have one for the iPhone 5 and that does work great and yes you can play music while charging.
