Hi im sure you get a million questions sent to u asking how to do this so i wont be too bothersome i hope.
I need to know how u wired into the lightning cable for the audio out. Im getting rid of my bose as im installing aftermarket speakers and amps.
Thanks for your time in advance

 

No problem with the questions... pretty much, you have 3 ways of getting audio out of the iPad to your stereo.
1. via the lightning cable and connected to a iStreamer device. You will loose control of the volume on the ipad and will need some sort of **** control placed somewhere else. There is no need for a pre-amp with this.

2. via headphone plug. All controls are from the iPad (volume, etc) the 3.5mm stereo plug, needs to be connected to a 300W pre-amp in order to power the car's stereo

3 via bluetooth/airplay. All controls on the iPad and you still need to connect your wireless unit (bt or airport xtreme) to your 300W pre-amp.

 

1. Ok so if i opt for the istreamer what would be your recommendation as far as volume control?

2. My only other option is the headphone jack but volume control is still an issue being pandora and some of my internet radio apps dont have on screen volume control the way the ipod function does.

Ive been looking into preamps but havent seen any advertising actual wattage just line voltage so im a little lost here.

Im running 2 kicker amplifiers, a 4ch and a monoblock for sub duties.

Thanks in advance and again sorry for picking your brain

 

no problem! The iStreamer comes with a volume **** that you can place anywhere... in the iPad mini, I have volume control on pandora... on the screen.

Great!! Thanks for the quick response

 

Who has time for the radio at 190MPH??

 

Finally done and working perfectly... Thanks to bumperplugs for the great job on the painted trim!

 

Great job and wonderful workmanship. Congratulations! Rep points to you.

 

Looks very nice! Where is the home button? A detailed DIY would be great.

 

That is awesome! The possibilities for this type of integration are huge with both the iPad and Mini.

 

Outstanding installation. Too bad we can't order cars without a radio anymore.

 

thanks for the kind words.... the home button is a soft touch idea, where you lightly press where the home button is and you are there. I also have enabled the multi gesture option, in which, in any application, you can go to the home screen with a 4 finger pinch.

 

Sick!

 

wow.. that looks amazing. Love how you painted the center stack black. thats how Porsche should have made it.
