Customer Review: Sony makes THE BEST cassette adapter...
Summary: 5 Stars
I've tried ALL of them, kid you not, I promise you I have.. and the Sony has the best sound quality hands down. It has a solid build quality compared to others, and seems to just click into place more firmly than others. If you've used cassette adapters, you might know what I mean.
Forget using an FM modulator, the sound is SO bad from those. Outside of hard wiring a mini-plug input into your stereo, this Sony adapter is the way to go.
IF you have any troubles, a couple tips:
- If you have low sound volume issues, double-check your volume setting on your iPhone/iPod. Put the volume to 3/4 on your device, or turn it up all the way, then back it off a little bit. Don't turn your volume all the way up! Also, you have NO IDEA how many times I've seen people with the volume all the way down saying they have to turn the car stereo all the way up.
- If you're having quality issues with the sound, check your iPhone/iPod's EQ. Try playing with the EQ or turning off all of them. Adding a Bass Booster gives horrible results with my stereo.
- Most all tapes will "click" a little in the player, and you can prevent that a little by sticking your finger in and slightly moving the tape around as it's playing.. sounds like a lame fix, but it works like a charm. Also, try cleaning your tape deck with a cleaner product, that helps.
All n all I love the Sony adapter and so do all the people i recommend it to. If you can't get this one to sound good, then you should consider having an installer put a mini plug jack in your vehicle. :-)

Description of Walkman Car Connecting Pack for MD Walkman and CD Walkman (Model# CPA-9C)
Connect your Portable CD Player to your car stereo with the help of this Sony Car Cassette Adaptor!The Sony CPA-9C cassette adaptor allows you to connect your minidisc or CD player to a vehicle cassette player. While this Sony product works best with Sony CD and MD players, the adaptor will operate with non-Sony products as well. There are a couple of key features to this adaptor which make it a fine choice. The first notable feature is the spring-loaded head. The head will automatically adjust itself to your vehicle's cassette deck, ensuring that the two heads have optimum contact and transfer the best possible sound. The second key feature is the silent mechanism. A silent mechanism yields less operational noise and a better quality MD or CD sound. This adaptor works with all cassette players which require you to insert the tape opening facing the side. The mini-plug inserts into a portable CD or MD headphone jack. The cassette adaptor is a cheap way to make your vehicle CD and MD operational.
