Wire connects ipod to breadboard

[nobrainer612]

Homework Statement

I built an amplifier in the breadboard so I want to test it out. I know there is a type of wire that one side can connect to the ipod and the other side separate into power (red in color) and ground ( black in wire) But I forgot the name of the wire, so I want to ask if anyone knows the name of it? Cause I want to see if they are selling it in radio shack. Thank you

I've done this. There is nothing special about it.

You can just make your own stereo connectors (with stereo, you'll have 2 red and 1 black, the black being the ground). You unscrew the plugs and the soldering terminals are right there.

Thank you. I laughed when I finished looking at all those reviews.

Yes radio shack has some crumby products. I stumbled upon http://www.alliedelec.com and they seem like they are probably a good source of electronics.
