The Simplest Way To Turn Your Ipod Into Your Automobile Sound System
If you want to 'iPod' your car - ie pump music from your iPod through your auto stereo system
, you could change to a brand spanking new auto that already has iPod integration, like BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan and Volvo, but there are way more options open to you as well. If your automobile hasn't got iPod connectivity, the solution is to install an adaptor.An iPod adaptor retailed by firms like Debatable and Monster can be installed in the cave of wires behind your vehicle dashboard, with one prong from the adaptor going to the back of your stereo while another prong goes to an iPod holder close to the front seat of the auto. The adaptor works like an emulator and tricks the stereo to think it is a CD changer, so you can use the track buttons on the stereo faceplate to choose songs.
Installing an iPod adaptor could be exasperating for the non-mechanically inclined, and the services of a trained engineer may be easier. If your auto's too decrepit, the factory installed stereo will not be applicable for iPod integration. For such vehicles, it is recommended to install a new player from makers like Alpine, Kenwood and Pathfinder.
If sound quality is important to you, the employment of iPod cassette adaptors isn't suggested as the sound quality isn't quite adequate, and just as seriously, they don't recharge the iPod's battery.
With these failings, the iPod cassette adaptor and the FM modulator aren't the best options, and it remains the iPod adaptor that we suggest. To help your personal research and to find out what iPod integration is most suitable for your model of automobile, there are online catalogs from auto audio online sites so your initial step is to find the iPod integration you wish for your car and get the appropriate adaptor. Before long, you may be pumping your iPod tracks through your automobile stereo and enjoying your favourite songs.
