Listen to Music in Car with High Quality Sound

Alexsa · 12-18-2014, 05:29 AM

Hi everyone! I'm wondering what the best way is to listen to music from mobile devices in a car. I have huge music collections with my favourite songs on iPod, and even bought a special cable to connect it to the car radio. But the music sounds awful

Any way to fix it? Also, is there any way to listen to music from USB pen drives, if the car head unit doesn't have a special USB port? Any ideas? Thank you in advance!

An adapter cable that goes through the tape deck.
Put the issue probably isnt the adapter you are using its the speakers in yer whip.

Adjust your bass/mid/treble settings on your iPod, also turn the volume to about half on the iPod, and then adjust the volume on the radio in the car.

Other than that, burn some CD's.

Got to be careful with these cassette auxiliary rigs, I've bought cheap ones before (~$15) that sounded like absolute garbage. I've also heard of them getting stuck in tape decks.

That being said there obviously are better products out there that don't have these issues, just something to be weary of.

Why don't you buy a car audio adapter? Nowadays there are plenty of them on the market with quite affordable prices. Obviously, it's much better that buying a new car head unit with USB port/Apple connector or suffer from low-quality music using ipod cable of FM-transmitter... These adapters reproduce music from practically all modern mobile devices via car stereo system with high quality sound. For example I have AUX Link, but you can search for other brands and models, just google "car audio adapter", "aux car kit", "car ipod adapter", etc.... Good Luck!
