I can't believe after 6 years I still remember my login to this place...
Okay, hi, I'm Julie- I'm far from new on here but prob new to this crew ((if there's anyone still around here....))
I have an Alpine cda-9847. I'd love for it to have the handy dandy aux jack so I could plug my iPhone into it, however, there's not one that I can find. After much google-ing, I've found that there is such a thing as an adapter for it that I can plug into the back of the head unit and run an aux chord from there.
My concern with this is, what if the chord comes unplugged and how do I keep from jacking up my stereo by doing this...
I'm a 2005 graduate of WyoTech, mechanically inclined but technology challenged...
I've also got 2 12' subs that I need to trade out for 10s since the large magnets prohibit me from sticking them under my backseat. But when I do get around to that, will all that adapter mess be in the way of hooking up my speakers?
The easy solution seems to be to get a new head unit that's got the aux jack in the front, but its a last resort because I love my Alpine so much and I've finally got to where I know how to operate the stinking thing.
Anyone have an adapter? experience with this? anything?
