I just use the headphone lead minus the headphones and a 3.5mm to 3.5mm lead!

Such as THESE

and they work fine for me!!

Hope this helps!!

Yeah, those 3.5mm to 3.5mm extenders recommend by Nanu1 is the easiest solution. You can easily order one over the internet or from you local DIY or hardward store.

I would definitely recommend paying extra for a decent one though, the one i use has gold connectors and oxygen free cable far better than the expensive & nasty one i bought from B&Q

USB is also an option. The W950 is great for this as it does not shut down phone mode when in USB mode. My mate has a W950 and a Kenwood KVT729 touchscreen 7" dvd player with USB input.
