RCA Analog to 3.5mm

[hstejas]

Hi Folks,
I'm planning to buy a Bowers and Wilkins Z2 dock for the bedroom.
The review look pretty sweet and I auditioned them.
MY question is since it has a 3.5mm input would I be able to connect a CD player to it which has Analog RCA?
I'm planning to play 320kbps mp3 files from the USB in the CD player, making use of its DAC which would definitely be better than a DAC in a Android phone/mp3 player.
Is there an accessory to convert the analog RCA output from the CD player to 3.5mm input?
If so, could you please post them.
Thanks.

Hi Hemanth,
This is not what I'm looking for. I'm looking for the opposite of this one.
This would be used to say plug in my iPhone to a stereo amp.
What I need is something like plugging in the analog audio out from a CD player to
A dock that takes in 3.5mm input.

Same cable can be used for both purposes i.e, for connection of phone to amplifier and cd/dvd to anything that takes 3.5mm . You just gotta know when to flip it, like a roti (pun intended).

These things happens even the most learned ones make mistakes.
I once put a capacitor in place of a resistor and spent 5 hrs deducing what was wrong with the circuit as it was not working

Tejas more silly mistakes happen so do not worry .. get the cable and enjoy the music!
