Any local electronics/computer/stereo shop should have a few different
options for you. You can buy a jack that goes mini (headphone jack) to
RCA if you already have cables, you can buy a cable that has the jack on
the end if you don't (or even if you do, quality will be better), you
can buy a cable that goes RCA > headphone right out of the stereo, so
you run the thinner headphone wire to the stereo (last choice, they
kinda suck). Unless I completely missed the point, and you are having
problems getting the output to actually come out of the headphone jack,
in which case, I can't help ya.
