My BiL has asked me about this:

http://www.maplin.co.uk/module.aspx?moduleno=104993

It's to connect a laptop to a hifi (a sort of midi hifi with aux in).

Does such an arrangement compromise sound quality, compared to direct
wired connection?



Theoretically - no.

In practice - it will be hissy.

(Is my guess! ;-)

Know what you mean! I think it's not like that though - if there's hiss
it'll be from the line level amp which, as Don says, would be difficult
to mess up.
