I just bought a Iphone 7s with the lightning connector. I would like to link the music on my Iphone to my home stereo system that uses RCA inputs. Of course, there does not seem to be a direct link cable that will do this. How have others accomplished this? I'm interested in the best sound quality I can accomplish. | ||

It looks like they do have an RCA to Lightning cable connector. Link "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||

The cables would most likely have better sound quality. | |||

Use the common 3.5mm jack to RCA cable and the headphone jack adapter that came with your phone. ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ   God bless the Motor Life Boat and the men & women that run them! | |||

If your receiver only has analog rca audio input, use the lightning headphone adaptor with a 3.5mm to RCA cable, or a Bluetooth adaptor as previously suggested. If you want the best sound quality possible, if your receiver has a digital audio input, you can use an older Apple TV with optical out, or a new Airport Express which has digital audio out through a 3.5mm jack, and you can stream wirelessly through airplay, which is lossless I believe. The Airport Express also has analog audio out, so you can use the 3.5mm to RCA cable even if your receiver does not have a digital audio input. Using that lossless wireless transfer and the D/A converter in the Airport will definitely give you better quality than a Bluetooth adapter, and probably better than the headphone adapter straight from the iPhone. But I'm not sure that you'd appreciate the lossless transfer over just using a Bluetooth adapter. The newer Apple TV and similar devices have HDMI outputs, and you can use that as well if your receiver has an HDMI input. http://www.apple.com/airport-express/ | |||
