Look for Digital Out or Line Out When Purchasing

SUMMARY: Gain the capability to hook your MP3 player to your stereo.

When browsing for a digital audio player / portable MP3 player to purchase, you may want to consider one that has a Digital Out or Line Out jack. This way, you may be able to connect your player to your stereo equipment and send out a higher quality sound stream than with the headphone jack, allowing you to play all your favorite WMA or MP3 files with your blaring speakers in high quality. Also, this may be helpful in case you'd like to hook your digital audio player to your car stereo.
