Great value January 6, 2009
Nicholas (Hertfordshire)
I took a 9.56 (incl.P+P) gamble on this, having read the Amazon reviews, and I'm pleased that I did.There's a slight tape hiss on quieter songs and between tracks but overall it's a really cheap way of playing my 1G iPod Touch through my car speakers.The sound is certainly as good as FM transmission/modulation systems which cost far more and need regular re-tuning to avoid interference.If you want audio perfection then look elsewhere and pay more but for less than 10 delivered you will not find better.

I wanted to listen to my iriver clix 2 in the car as it only has a cassette player and I did not want the expense of a CD player,also mp3 players take up far less room than dozens of CD's.I had read so many bad reviews of various fm transmitter adapters I decided to try a tape adapter.This sony one is cheap and has excellent reviews,so I bought one.It is excellent value for money and produces quite good quality sound,certainly far better than the actual tape players does.It does create slight background noise in the speakers,especially the left one.However this is easy to overcome,turn the volume up high on the MP3 player and down on the radio,noise virtually gone and certainly inaudible under any driving conditions.It only fits cassette players where the tape goes in end on.My 5 star rating takes into account it only costs 6
Happy with purchase October 18, 2008

I was nervous that this would not work because I was aware that when a cassette goes into my stereo it moves downwards behind a small metal plate - I was therefore concerned the cable would be cut or jammed - it wasn't a problem.
It does work best with the iPOD volume on full, rather than the stereo volume high up - there is a bit of hissing in between songs, but I guess that was always the case with tapes!!
I would recommend this product for those that want to use their iPOD in the car

The mechanical noise of this adapter is so loud that it is useless for listening to music.

So, I have bought this great Volkswagen Lupo, but alas! It has a tape player, and who even knows where to buy those anymore, unless they are in wire basket cages in the co-op, where the most diverse music to be found is 'Popular Brass Band Music of the 70s! Volume 3' (where to be honest, we all know they exhausted all the best 'popular brass band music of the 70s in volumes 1 & 2). Anyway... to the crux...
So I needed a solution to this problem, someway to get what I want coming out of my little car's speakers. I own a Sony Ericsson Walkman phone, which is brilliant for holding all the music I want, so the music coming out of something problem was sorted. It's just... how was I to get this music coming out of my car speakers?
I spent a good couple of weeks looking into the best solution. FM transmitters seemed to have all their little niggles and faults, from the frequency needing changing every now and then, to poor battery life. So I looked to cassette adaptors. I had owned a couple before, both bought from Argos, a couple of pounds a shot, and they were extremely poor quality, and promopty broke within a few months. I decided then to go for it, and try this time for a 'high end' cassette adaptor. And I am extremely glad I did!
The sound quality is perfect, coming out of my phone, the sound is exactly as if a cd were playing from an inbuilt cd player. The noise never becomes crackly when it gets loud either, it's good for that too, as bass isn't interferred with. As a product, it simply does as you ask, without any problems, something rare to find. Worth every penny.
I sadly have had to buy two, but through my fauly entirely; I caught the cable around my foot (I'm not even sure why) and proceeded to exit the car, and feeling my foot caught, thinking it was just a shoe lace, I pulled hard on the cable and it proceeded to break. Very sad that it happened, but again, something that could have been easily helped!
If you are even thinking of buying this adaptor as potential solution to your problems, I would struggle to advise it more.
