Is there a need for this if your iPod Touch is a few years old & doesn't have an external speaker-have to play through headphones or a speaker device?

The egg beats speaker dock is for the iphone . The itouch is too thin and the sound won't carry through the speaker. (I've tried)

No it uses acoustics to amplify what the iPod produces through a speaker. If you have to speaker it won't help you at all - hope that helps!

Yes but you will need a mini-jack cable if your iPod does not have bluetooth.

You need aux cable to play music, lightning connector will charge, but if you don't plug aux cable then music will only play through phone speaker and not car's

If you mean as a source to the receiver, I don't remember it having an a output jack. You can hook your Ipod directly to your receiver without this. You could hook your receiver to the ionly play through the aux in if you want it to act like a speaker. Hope that helps.

I've heard that the iphone is not compatible with this speaker dock, so I would also tend to believe that the same is true of the Ipod Touch since it is similar. Apparently, it causes buzzing or some other type of interference when docked. I am not 100% sure though about the Ipod Touch compatibility. Check with the manufacturer before you buy this speaker dock. That is the best advice I can offer you.

Ipod port but you can connect via headphone jack. However, your device will not be charged as it plays.

You can skip songs or whatever you have on your ipod/iphones/ipad. It just skips songs. I have one and it works excellent with my factory sound system

Fussy About Clock Radios,If you are looking for an iPod that does not need headphones then I suggest looking out for an iPod Touch. As far as I know they are the only type of iPod that headphones are not a needed item, but the sound quality drops to only okay.iPod docks do have speakers. They also charge your iPod (depending on what type of dock). Some docks can even function as an alarm clock. I hope this helped.Godspeed!~SWWPD

I love this player, but I use the speakers. It has great sound. Maybe you could plug you earphones into the iPhone or iPod directly, but I've never done this. The new iPhone 5 has it's ear plug connector on the bottom, so I don't think you could use ear phones when the 5 is docked.

Hi, it's so that you can connect any other audio equipment that doesn't have the iPod connector, typically say an iPad could be connected from its headphone output to the Auxillery input on the klipsch iGroove . I will tell you that for the money they sound amazing , trully as good as a Bose unit in my opinion . Good luck Chris f

Yes, because it takes more power to push sound out of speakers than it takes for headphones. Put another way the speaker has it's own amplifier which requires power. It is a great add on for my ipod and I can listen to audio books while driving.

It does not require an iPod, you can use a USB flash drive with music on it and it will play just fine. or you can connect whatever device of your choosing to it via USB.

You control the volume with your iPod. There is no volume control on the speaker. You also can't play the speaker through the USB connection while it is charging.

I use an iPod touch 4th gen (not amped) to listen to them. An amp will make them sound even better, but is not necessary.

It doesn't have an iPod jack, but you could go headphones out (1/8" male) to RCA (male). You may want to use a headphone amp.

Sometimes we plug it into the ipod or phone and just listen to music through it. The sound quality is pretty good for a single speaker.
