Sony car stereo cassette adaptor for iPod
If you have a car which has a cassette player function and an Ipod with a stereo out jack this is the in car adaptor for you. You can spend loads of money on fancy ipod adapters which you can tune your radio into which sounds cool but more often than not the sound quality will be poor. With this you get as near perfect sound as your gonna get from an ipod, by simply connecting the jack coming from the cassette into your ipod headphone socket and putting the cassette into your cassette player. YOUR CAR CASSETTE PLAYER MUST TAKE CASSETTES LENGTHWAYS (THE SHORT SIDE GOING INTO THE PLAYER) DUE TO THE WAY THAT THE CABLE COMES OUT OF IT)
Theres nothing else to say really other than it does exactly what its supposed to do and there is very little if any tape noise from the unit whilst it is going round.

Simple effective solution.
I've only had it a few days now but it works well and the sound quality is very good. I found I had to turn my Creative Zen's volume up to full for a normal tape volume level, so have to remember to turn it down again when I put the earphones back in (which is why I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars), but otherwise it's an excellent device.
Note: if you have to push your cassettes in with the long sided tape opening first this may not fit because the wire comes out from either the top or the side, not the back, but as most car casettes load sideways I've had no problem.

Really useful
If you're like me and have a slightly *older* car that has a cassette player, this is a brilliant little piece of kit that lets you play your iPod or MP3 player or what have you in your car. New technology and old technology in perfect harmony!
