Hi There...can someone provide some guidance on how best to connect an ipod to an GF-9090 ? From what I can decifer there seems to be a L and R mic input on the side of the box and a 5 Pin DIN on the back...does anyone know whether the 5 pin din is an input or output ?
Thanks, kidofthe80s

DIN is USUALLY (but not always) wired for in and out. I use 5 pin DIN to 4x phono RCA plugs with gender changers to make RCA sockets. Don't try to use the mic sockets they'll be much too sensitive, as will the phono (turntable) input.

Has the 9090 got a phono input?
If so, get a line to phono adapter, they work well in my experience.

I have a 9090 the Din socket is out only to go to an external cassette deck or amp, its the same on my 9191 but this has phono sockets so you can use these as mentioned, if you look at the Din socket you will see the tape symbol this usually means out only, if you see REC/PB it's in or out, but there needs to be a AUX or LINE IN selector,on some machines without this you may get an output in the record mode but not always.
On the 9090 you can use the mic sockets but you would need your Ipods volume to be just audible and the 9090 needs to be in record mode, you would also need a lead with a stereo jack to 2 mono jacks.Or you can use one of the cassette adaptors with the lead, you normally use for car cassette players to play CD's from a portable player, but your 9090 would have to be kept in play mode.
Hope this helps.

Thanks all for your help...any ideas where I might be able to get a lead that has stereo 3.5m jack to 2 x 3.5mm mono / stereo jacks ? Look at the Maplins website and on ebay but came up with nothing ? Any ideas ?
Not keen on the car cassette option as it looks a bit ugly with a bit wired hanging out of the cassette deck...
Cheers...

Try CPC if you're intending go down the route of using the MIC sockets.

Or of course the FM transmitter option, although I've found these to give pretty mediocre results (the ones I've tried anyway).

You need one of these:

MCM Phono Attenuator

Plug ipod (or any line level device) into that and plug the adapter into your phono-ins. This should give you best results.

I have one and it works great.

I can vouch for these, they perform very well and seem like a quality product.

Thanks...will take a look.
