You may use your Apple iPod primarily as a stand-alone music player by connecting the included ear buds. However, you can also use the device with more powerful car or home stereo amplifiers so you can crank up the volume and let others listen to your music collection. Some modern amplifiers and stereos include a 3.5mm “Aux” jack designed especially for music players such as the iPod. In some cases, though, you may have to use another method to connect your iPod if the stereo does not have such a jack. Writer Bio
