Can you use a i pod docking station with any mp3 player or is it specifically for ipod?
We have Sony Walkman mp3 players and I wondered if they will plug in to the kind of stereos which have ipod docking stations? If not, does anyone know if Sony produce something similar as I’ve never seen anything. Thanks.

unfortunatley you wont be able to use an alternative make of mp3 player with an ipod docking station, ipod’s have a connector on them which is specific to ipods. the only thing you could do is look for something similar, try searching for portable speakers on amazon or ebay and see what that turns up. Alternatively to that would be the option to look at stereos with 3.5mm stereo jack input, tip: make sure its an input and not an output for headphones.
it’s specifically for an ipod.
Some of them have an auxillary port on the back that you can plug any mp3/mp4 player into.
using it to connect other types of iPods work but because they are produced by different companies, I dout the dock will fit in the first place
give it a go, it will not damage it
It’s specifically for an ipod but if there’s an option called "aux in", you can plug in any mp3 player using an auxiliary cable.
You can buy these cables practically anywhere
Most are specifically for ipods, However some do support mp3′s. if they do itshould say on the box when you purchase it
