Connecting the ARCHOS 105 to a Stereo system
Connecting the ARCHOS 105 to a Stereo system
Connecting your ARCHOS 105 to a stereo system allows you to listen to your ARCHOS 105’s music on it without
a headset. You will need a standard (mini headphone to RCA) audio cable for this which is not supplied with the
ARCHOS 105. The diagram below illustrates the setup. Plug the audio cable into the headphone jack and into
the auxiliary jacks on your stereo. Note that this is only a schematic representation of a stereo. If in doubt, the
manual of your stereo will enable you to identify the auxiliary inputs.
