Connect your Portable CD Player to your car stereo with the help of this Sony Car Cassette Adaptor!Amazon.com Product Description
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.

Well I thought I would try using this for my ipod mini, seeing as other wireless FM products were receiving negative reviews. Much to my dismay, this product did a terrible job. The sound was airy, soft, and could hardly be heard, even when using a portable CD player.
Overall, this product was a thumbs down.

This gadget works as advertised and gives good sound thru my car stereo. The problem is that my little MP3-player can not drive it for more than 30 minutes before the battery dies. If a put a new battery in my player it is good for another 30 minutes again. I suspect that the cassette is loading the output from the player too much.

I couldn’t use this adapter in My F150. Very faint signal and too much noise. Absolutely worthless.

It’s neat and all, but go with an cd player deck for the car-it’s a lot better and worth the money. quality is between cd and cassette.
I recently purchased the fm adapter for a lower price and was satisfied with good radio quality. If you want to do it an easy way and cannot afford the decks, i reccommend the adapter.

Both my cars came with tape players (which I don’t use), so this unit was perfect for me to route the audio from external units to a vehicle’s stereo system.
I use this for my Garmin Nuvi 360 and Zune without having to run any wires behind the dash. It doesn’t provide any control of the external accessories (i.e. I still have to use the Nuvi’s touch screen, or the Zune’s touchpad). Now all my songs and playlists are in one MP3 player that goes with me.
The only caveat is that the stereo will be in tape mode all the time. So, when hooked up to a GPS, one can’t listen to the radio/CDs and have the music interrupted when the GPS issues turn instructions.
It worked out good enough to get another for the other car.
