Handy control pod includes volume, single-touch mute, headphone jack and auxiliary input
so yes you can hook your iPod directly to it, you need to go to radio shack or elsewhere and get a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable (looks like the plug on your headphones, but one on each end of the cable)Handy control pod houses volume control, single-touch mute, headphone jack and connection for a second audio source such as an MP3 player.
I highly recommend the Bose Companion 5!
You absolutely can use it with your iphone and ipod but as you do own a macbook, do yourself a favour and give it a try! fire up a dvd and enjoy,...
i think its phenomenal for a 2.1 system......
good luck
Don't get the 5. Listen to the Companion 3 first.
I absolutely agree that you should certainly listen to both the 3s and the 5s at the same time in an A/B comparison setting. I did and that is what convinced me to pay the extra for the 5s!
