Play ipod in your car

[Jazz_feb06]

How many of you play ipod in your car? Is the sound quality good as compare to creative mp3??

I play ipod in my car but it's using the FM transmitter which can be unclear sometimes. I don't have a HU where you can plug in the iPod directly as yet, hoping to get one soon.

 

I've tried an old creative MP3 player and the iPod definitely sounds better. However one thing I don't like about the iPod is that I have to use iTunes to get the songs into the iPod and that seems to be the only way so I only can uploads songs from home as I cannot install iTunes in the office computer.

yeah, agreed wif u on the itunes s/w.. but hey, for ipod is it has to wait long to hold the play button in order to start to play??

Mine's hook up to my factory HU via AuxMod... Sound quality is good.. Definately better than the FM transmitter cuz no interference.

 

As for itunes, the SW is ok... Just that there's no backup should you need to format your hard disc... The SW (After computer has been formatted with no songs in itunes) will overwrite the songs in iPod itself. Therefore to overcome this, must use 3rd party SW to transfer the songs back into iTunes.

 

As for starting up the iPod, think it takes like 3 - 5 sec for it to turn on and play?

 

Creative... Won't buy their MP3 player again cuz it has alot of problems and the interface is really bad. Not user friendly and the battery almost always has problems.

 

Moooooooooooooooooooooo

i haf a fnrd who uses a tape device, with a wire sticking out, which connects to the ipod to play the ipod....

I'm also using cassette tape, but the wheel sound can be irritating, especially if you listen to music at low volume. Never tried FM tuner before.
