Sony MDX-CA580 Aux for MP3?

[SegaMDJ]

Hi guys, I'm new to the forum but a long time

user of Mini Disc.

Just a basic question really, does anyone know if I can hook an mp3 player up to the

Sony MDX-CA580 Head unit, I want to use my PSP 2000 because it out puts

Line out and would be perfect, I used to use it with my old kenwood via the din

port, unfortunately my Kenwood mini disc player packed up last week and looking

for a change…I'm quite taken with the MDX-CA580

I’ve noticed that on the back it has Aux Inputs via RCA but it says Bus Aux

I think not without some additional hardware. I'd be inclined to go for something later, in particular with MDLP such as the 680, though, or 790X (last and best, including Type-S DSP).

You can force the 580 to accept aux input using something called an AUX ON adapter. It just pretends to be a changer and plugs into the rear BUS socket. Whether or not to put the extra money to buying a later unit, that is the question.
