![]() ![]() It took about 45 minutes, and is well worth the effort. Since I'm using a line out (highly recommended, for reasons in my post above), I decided to remove these components. The second reason is the side effect of the first one. Apparently, the reasons they are there is to reduce gain coming from headphone jacks (as opposed to the line out), and filter out low frequency. The aux input wiring harness contains (2) 220nF capacitors and a 300K-ohm resistor, which filter out low frequency and degrade sound output. I recently saw a post on another forum that contained a mod that addresses this issue, and am happy with the results, so I thought I'd provide a DIY. My experience is if you rip your MP3 files using a high quality encoder at a reasonably high bit rate, and normalize volume (see my post above for details), this isn't a big issue, although the volume is noticeably lower. Some people find that the sound quality (particularly the bass) & volume of the aux input isn't as good as it could be. Improving Aux Input Sound Quality & Volume I first removed the coin holder in the center arm rest-there are 4 torx screws (red circles)-you can see the coin holder on the seat (yellow circle): You don't have to open the center arm rest to access the iPod, except when you want to select a new playlist. I keep the AirClick remote in the drivers door storage area, so it's easy to press the play button. When you start the car, the iPod turns on and is still paused (at the point in the song when you turned off the car), and I use the Griffin AirClick to resume playing, by pressing the play/pause button (actually, pressing any button will work). With this set up, when you have the audio input on aux input and the iPod playing & you turn off the car, the iPod pauses and shuts itself off after a few minutes. Griffin AirClick remote control for iPod-$40 at Apple Store:ġ8 gauge wire-you***8217 ll need about a foot-I bought 4 feet to have extra ($0.12 per foot) Here's a list of parts you'll need-on a difficulty scale of 1 - 5 with 1 being the easiest, I'd say this DIY is a 3-once I had all the parts, it took me half an afternoon to complete: The bottom dock connector (which transfers audio out of the iCarCharger's 3.5mm port) generates pure, unfiltered sound. ![]() The headphone jack sound quality and bass levels are greatly reduced. You definitely don't want to use the headphone jack, since it is filtered and tailored toward headphone use and the quality & volume level of a headphone simply cannot compete with your car stereo. 1 (ONE) MONSTER GENUINE MUSICCONNECT 7FT CABLE.I decided to have the iPod in the center arm rest (to be out of sight, and also have easy access).įor a power source, I went with the Monster iCarCharger, since it has a direct line out (not through an amplifier like the Belkin adapter, so you have a clean output), which I hardwired to the switched power lines of one of the power outlets in the rear center console (below the A/C vents).This high quality cable is made with Monster’s advanced technologies such as 24k gold connectors, Monster Stubby Connectors, 8-cut Turbine connectors, and Time Correct Windings to ensure the best possible audio.
