I know most people do not have to bother with old school cassette
players in their cars, however my old school car, calls for old school
measures, and when I won a free MP3 players, I was pretty excited about
it, more so though because I knew there had to be some sort of way to
get this MP3 player to work in my car; even with the cruddy old cassette
player.
I picked up a Monster iCarPlay CassetteAdapter, however
almost put it back after reading that it was made for ipods, and
iphones. Well rest assured folks, they only advertise it that way, God
only knows why. It's universal, and fit just fine in my SanDisk MP3
player. It will not however charge your MP3 player while it is in use,
which stinks, but whatever. I will take what I can get for a low price,
and the iCarPlay was only $15.00.
Appearance:
It looks pretty high scale for a cassette tape. Basically it is a
black cassette tape, with a wire running from it. You simply plug this
wire into the same port you would plug your ear buds in.
In the car, you now just power on your MP3 player, and wallah, your downloaded music will play through your car speakers.
It works pretty flawlessly, but definitely has a few kinks that need to be ironed out.
First and foremost, was one annoyance that occurs time to time with
the iCarPay. While listening to music, the thing will spit out the
cassette tape for now apparent reason, which is a pain, because you have
to slip it back into the player in order for it to work.
Besides that one kink though, I was shocked at how simple the thing
was to use. I thought transferring my MP3 music to play in my car would
be an expensive and annoying process, but this simple little adapter
gave me exactly what I was looking for, with barely any troubles at all.
Overall:
If you are looking to listen to you MP3 players music in your car,
without having to buy expensive equipment, and you have an old cassette
player, this adapter is definitely for you. It works well and is priced
well.
