Does an iPod connect directly to receiver? Is it a simple cord input? Thanks, Bob C.

Yes it has an AUX input. I use it for both IPOD and XM docking. Just need to have the Y cable, 2 RCA to single mini. Here's the one I purchased to support it. Belkin Audio Y Cable Splitter 1-Mini Plug, 2-RCA Plugs (6 feet) very inexpensive.

No, "old school" RCA style in/outputs. similar to receivers made in the 1970s. no USB . Google images of this unit, front-back views. very good basic FM/AM receiver.

It has Aux input and comes with a cord. I tried using USB to my iPhone and music did not play through. However I was able to pause the music from the speakers using AUX.

Never tried this connection. Only used aux input (mini phono) and standard Apple connector from iPod.

I connect my iphone to mine using the Aux input. If your iPod has an aux output, all you need is the connecting aux cable

Your Ipod will work without buying additional equipment. The unit was designed to interface with Apple products.

I use it to connect my iPod to my home audio system & works fine. I'm not too electronically savvy. Sorry.

Hi, the only way to play music form your iPod to this Sony Home Theater System is to use a stereo mini plug going to your iPod and the other end is an RCA Y-audio jack that will go at the back of the main unit (L/R audio in). The cable is called stereo mini to rca y-audio. Hope this helps. -Ely

It says you can connect an MP3 player to it. The manual is silent on whether an iPod will work.

No it doesn't, but it includes a connection so that you can play your iPod through your receiver, but than you will drain your battery.

Not that I know of ,,,, mine certainly don't. Hooking up your Ipod should be through any modern AVR.

It comes with a cord to connect to things like this. We connect an old iPod to it.

It does not, but, there are many different adaptors for the ipod feature. The ones I've used are a 30 pin adaptor to a regular jack and an ipod to a regular ear jack. I've even hooked up for separate speakers and it sounds pretty good. I did get the 3 year warranty for it and it includes inhome service. I had to select a warranty from a different item at first, then add the jukebox, which allow me to do it.

From what I can tell you would need to either have or purchase the connection cords that will fit both the back of the receiver and your ipod. The same if you only want to use the headphones. Take them all to an electronics store to get correct adapters. Both receiver and head phones require batteries to operate.

There is a standard USB input on the front panel for connecting ipods, ipads, iphones etc I connect my ipod directly to the front and enjoy, no problems

You can, but it's not ideal. I hooked up my ipod using a 1/8 jack to stereo RCA Jacks, plugged into the front AV input. Get good audio quality, but no control over the iPod, of course... I'm probably going to go ahead and invest in a dock...

The receiver doesn't have any USB and any bluetooth connectivity. There is a connection to an optional iPod dock. It is not included with this receiver but it was included in another setup I have at a different location.

This receiver specifically has the Airplay function for iPhones and iPods to stream music through. You'd connect the speakers the normal old-fashioned receiver way - thru the plugs on the back of the unit. (If it's speaker wires you are connecting, I recommend getting the banana plug adapters, which are a MUCH better option than wrapping the wires around the screws. The plugs I bought were: Sewell Direct SW-29863-12 Deadbolt Banana Plugs.) This receiver allows for surround sound so you have a few options for placing the two speakers (but the front right and left are probably your best bet), and there's a specific plug for the subwoofer.
