The audio adapter features 12 pre-selected channels through the entire FM broadcast range for tuning into a wide variety of devices for simple access to your massive tune archive and better sound.

3.0 out of 5 stars Lackluster audio quality, July 1, 2005

By	M. Nelson (Jackson, MS USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I had high hopes for this product. I'd been using a cassette style adapter for my MP3 player and wasn't happy with the normal tape hiss present in that style of adapter.

The unit works as described and is fairly convenient to use if you keep the "cheat card" of frequencies handy. You must also have a good, solid unused frequency in your area among the ones available on the Voyager. Unfortunately, I don't really have a frequency that's completely clear for it to broadcast through, which results in a fair amount of static and squeals and pops normally associated with AM radio stations.

I'm sure this product would work well for people in areas with a lot of clear frequencies, but I've gone back to my cassette adapter. The tape hiss is more acceptable to me than the random poor quality and static I frequently get with the Voyager.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great performance, January 1, 2006

By	L. Hudson - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Having used other FM transmitters for sending my MP3 output to my car FM radio, I can say that this unit is the best that I have used. The output is FM quality (which is the best you can expect from a FM transmitter)with good highs and good lows.

The output from the unit is very strong (compared to the other battery units I have owned). It takes a powerful station to create any "noise" under your signal.

I am buying several more for friends. Being a geek, I am very protective of my reputation and would not buy or suggest an inferior product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hooked up easily, March 3, 2006

By	Luis Marmolejos "Luis Marmolejos" (Miami, Fla.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This was my first time using an FM transmitter for sending my MP3 output to my car FM radio, and the unit works very good. It is very convenient the fact that it does not need extra batteries, so it does not have extra costs associated. It worked at the first attempt and continues to work well, although sometimes other stations interfere with the frecuency I choose. The sound quality is good, keeping in mind that you can only get FM quality.

I recommend it.
