VBLUE42 Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 I'm experienced in buliding car hifis (more than en years) I am curious if this is true as to why you needed to ask for help on this forum. Then to make a negative comment to one our valued members that tried to offer you a suggestion you should not have needed from anyone here if you have been doing this for years. The idea that anyone would ask for advice then to completely disregard it makes no sense to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ferke Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 I'm having the same problem with mine, but the distortion will vary from left to right. Sometimes it'll be perfectly clear, sometimes slightly bad, sometimes unlistenable. Does the same thing on both my ipod touch and my nano. If I unplug from the ipod and reconnect it it'll work for a varying amount of time. I'm going to guess likely a cable issue, but what do you guys figure? Exactly. The same problem. Sometimes helps if you disconnect the Ipod, sometimes not. For a long time I thought this problem is caused by the Ipod. Now I'm going to rework the cable (maybe the headunit also). I'll give you the information if it helps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I gave an answer that his suggestion helps nothing in this case. You can have 30 years experience, if you meet something strange you may need to ask for help. I already asked for peace, and tried to to fix up this quarrel. Please... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have disassembled the RCA connectors of it. This is funny. Its quality is terrible. No any soldering, only poor quality pressing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Replace it with the Apple Composite AV Cable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ferke Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Replace it with the Apple Composite AV Cable. Might be a good idea. I just soldered new connectors, but new customers should stay away from Pioneer's Ipod cable. Do you have information if the USB connector of the original ipod cable has full functioning and not only for charging? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 No one said anything about the original cable. It wont work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VBLUE42 Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Thats not the same cable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ferke Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Thats not the same cable. Ok, let's try it again: Might be a good idea. I just soldered new connectors, but new customers should stay away from Pioneer's Ipod cable. Do you have information if the USB connector of the original Apple composite ipod cable has full functioning and not for charging only? Will it work with the headunit?

VBLUE42 Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 There is no original Apple composite ipod cable. Go back and read what I wrote. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ferke Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 There is no original Apple composite ipod cable. Go back and read what I wrote. Ok, I'm talking about this one: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB129LL/B Has this cable a fully working USB connector or is it for charging only? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 That is the cable I am talking about and the one you need to use that will fix your problem. Yes it will work as the Pioneer cable is suppose to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

brynm Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 I just don't understand why Pioneer went with this style cable instead of just the regular ipod cable Quote Link to post Share on other sites
