Guitar Speaker
Can I plug my ipod into a guitar speaker?

I want to play a live show, and I make electronic music off my computer.
I want to just play my instrumentals and sing with it.
Would I need two seperate guitar amps?
What kind of ipod wire would I need to connect to a guitar amp?
And I doubt it's possible to use a microphone and play my ipod through one amp..

I need help!

You would need two separate amps only if you want good control of the audio from all your different audio sources... and it depends how loud you need to be - and what amp and speaker you are using.

The iPod has a 1/8" (3.5mm) stereo headset jack. One side of the cable needs to be that - just like the headphones... the other side would have two (left and right audio). If you plug directly into a regular amp, that would normally be a 1/4" males end of the cable going into the amp's 1/4" in. Guitar center or Radio Shack have the cables.

And we don't know what mic you are using... If it uses a 1/4" jack that plugs into the amp now... then it plugs in tomorrow... but you just identified your problem. typically amps have only one or two 1/4" inputs... so... how do you get more inputs?

A small mixer will do what you want... Check the Mackie or Behringher mixers at Guitar Center... a 4 or 6 channel will do just fine. The mic gets Channel 1... the iPod gets "Line Audio In" RCA or 1/4" jacks... The mixer mains out connects to your amp. You may need an XLR (mains out) to 1/4" tail/adapter so it can connect to your Amp. Most amps don't have XLR audio-in.

This is very similar to the way some newer PA systems set up using active rather than passive speakers. Active speakers have the amps built-in rather than have the amps sitting in racks connected to unpowered/passive speakers.
