I am brand spanking new to IPod audio... all due apologies in advance.

Anyone have ideas on the best connectivity & setup options to plug my IPod into my integrated amp (suggestions, links, articles, etc.)?

I also have a huge song collection on my Mac desktop - I figured you all would know the best approach.

System basics:

Marantz DV9500 universal player
Dali Helicon 400 speakers
Cayin A-88T integrated tube amplifier

Many thanks!

Bill
