It is best to hook in to the jacks on the back of the unit as they are not amplified for better sound quality. You go to an electronics store and tell them you need a cable one end will plug in to a computer sound card and the other in to a stereo tape deck.

You put the one end in the headphone jack of the cd player and the other in the microphone jack of the computer. Of course, it would be easier to just put the cd into the computer and get the files that way, or even to buy an external cd rom drive so that you can plug it in and do the same. But for direct audio transfer, I think a patch cord will work nicely.
