Are There Any Cords or Adapters?

I got an iPod touch and since then all the speakers I had to connect to my old iPod are...obsolete so I was wondering if there was a cord or and adapter that could connect between my iPod Touch and my guitar amplifier which has a plug in for an mp3 player. Or could I just strip the casings of the two wires and connect them? Would that even be a good idea?

    You probably have a failure in the cord.

    Wiring your own is not a very good idea.

    This is a standard cord and should be available at any store that handles ipos accessories or at

    I have no idea why on Earth your iPod touch would behave differently with your old speakers. It uses a standard 3.5mm jack. There is no converter.

    You say your guitar amplifier has a plug in for an mp3 player. What is the technical term for that? I am well versed in audio technology terms, but a plug in for an mp3 player, unless it plugs into the data port you use to upload songs, would work for any audio device. Please clarify that.

    Stripping the casings would be the worst idea. Don't do it.
