5.0 out of 5 stars Works with ipod at home with stereo as well!, February 16, 2006

I just bought an ipod and purchased this AVB adapter at the same time. It was an excellent choice. I'm in my car all day for work and it was great to start enjoying my ipod right away. I found that keeping the volume of my cassette deck a little lower and compensating with the volume on the ipod takes care of any hiss. It sounds great and it was $10 well spent.

Update: I just tried using this cassette adapter with my ipod and home stereo. It's great! I just popped the adapter in the cassette player (the cord sticks out through the door, but it does close) and it works! I'm so excited that I can use my ipod with my stereo that I'm going to buy another adapter. I had previously tried using a cable directly from my ipod to the stereo inputs of my receiver and that did not work well at all.

I have been looking for somthing to use to listen to my music on the way to work in the car for a while.

I settled on this because of its less than $10 pricetag and eligibilty on super saver shipping and had almost nothing to lose.

It plug into the standard headphone jack of any kind. I use it for my cd player but you could use it for anything from an ipod to your laptop.

The audio quality is excelent.

The retractable cord is very convient although a little trick to first figure out how to use. It makes it much more portable and dosent get in the way as much as it would.

I have no complaints and for less than $10 it would be a shame to pass up.

I had a more expensive FM transmitter and the sound quality pales in comparison to this product. My sister-in-law has a very expensive Apple FM transmitter and the sound quality with this cassette is 100 times better. It sounds like the music is coming staight from the CD player. There is hardly any distortion and it is amazing that this sells for only $8. If I would have heard this in someone's else's car and not known how much they paid, I would assume it would have been at least $50 (it sounds that good).

Buy it...don't hesitate for a second!
