Alternatively, you can use the RCA outputs to output to an amplifier with RCA inputs, or you can mix and match RCA-to-mini and vice versa, and it should still work fine.
As I understand it, the V-Cap dock includes an iPod Line Out Dock to Mini cable, so the only other cable you'd need to supply is the output from the V-Cap Dock.
It is important to note that you do NOT use an IMOD Line out dock cable here, with the built in black gate caps inside. I don't know if this is harmful but it is certainly redundant. Instead, the V-cap dock houses the capacitors, so basically you just need a "wire" from the iMod to the caps.
Looks great, Ken!

Thanks that makes alot of sense just one question (sorry about my ignorance) but what does (with the L/R/Gnd pins enabled) mean?
Thanks again,
Izzy
