Use a Mac instead of an iPod as stereo system source
Authored by: DocC on Jul 06, '07 08:05:14PM

As several posters have noted—and assuming you have a reasonably high quality audio system—using an optical connection to deliver the signal provides the best audio results. The digital-analog decoders found in most audio equipment are better quality than what Apple uses, so moving the conversion there is the best thing to do.

Switching from an analog to optical cable (routed via an Airport Express) produced an audible improvement in sound quality for me. (Your mileage may vary. (:>))
