Oh yeah--parallel resistor with cap in series = high pass filter.

So I can just plug in an i-Pod in there and go?
Yes you can.

The Auxiliary connector will allow you to introduce any audio source into your audio system with an OEM BMW cable. When the cable is connected, a new mode will be available on the radio called "AUX". The cable plugs right into the 2003-2005 X5's and comes with a 1/8" stereo female jack. You could convert that to any jack you need. People are using it mostly for portable MP3 audio and DVD audio. However, I found an additional use for it. On my lunch hours I plug in my battery powered preamp to the aux connector and jam on electric guitar through the X5's stereo.
