Symphony II+(Ipod connection)

[Gails Woofel]

Just put in my symphony II+ and was wondering which is the best way to connect an ipod. I have read things about using the aux but it seems difficult. What do you guys use? The Dice one??

Thanks


(Did a search nothing really helped me out)

stock audi solutions sucks. get a DICE.

[Gails Woofel]

anyone use the aux?

[Sharkfin]

DICE FTW, it connects the stock radio and wires are all hidden, then get a dock and you are set

[Gails Woofel]

anyone have pic of their setup(w/0 dock)? Is the wire routed to below the armrest?

I agree with all saying the factory solution sucks. I love the clean look of the dock in the glovebox...but the controls are garbage!

I had my Dice wired to the center armrest holder. So no wires are ever exposed or no dock necessary, while still giving me the chance to change songs easily.

DICE for me. fished the wire into the card tray where my nano sits for stealth & easy access.

Thats a really inventive solution cfujikawa!

[cfujikawa]

thanks! i also fabricated a dock that would fit in there, but unfortunately, the DICE doesn't work when connected to a newer apple dock. it's alright though, cause i like how it's stealthy, yet it's easy to access.

Wow! :) That is a pretty nice place to put the ipod in! It's easier to reach than the glove box yet it is stealthy! Nice solution cfujikawa!

Hi. Can anyone make a list what do I need to buy to make that stealthy Ipod conection like Cfujikawa has? ( and what Ipod that is? )I have a symphony II radio with casette deck. Thanks :D

[cfujikawa]

all i have is the DICE ipod connection, and a 3rd generation ipod nano.

Ok one more question before buy :)
- will that setup display track names on head unit lcd and/or dash disp?
or will I have to check them on Ipod?

the head unit will show CDC track# minute/second
the DIS will show CDC track# (IIRC: i'm not in my car now so can't doublecheck)

if you want to see the track name, you'll need to look at your ipod.
