Ipod

Featured Replies

Hi Guys,

I have a Pioneer 6700MP and just bought an IPOD :D I did the cheap thing n bought a fm transmitter, yet I find the sound rather cack to be fair.

I like using the buttons on the Ipod, and have seen this...

Is this going to give me the best sound quality or should I buy the pioneer ipod adapter?

Thanks all,

Ash

PS or this one, click me :D

I had a similar thing for my alpine and its was no where near the quality of a proper ipod link. Big let down of the proper ipod link is its slow but when you get used to it its amazing

anyone else used either? I'm not worried about controlling the pod just wanna have good sounds from it :D

I've got that kinda thing on my blaupunkt. Sound quality is fine for me, in other words the speakers distort before the sound quality is rubbish, if you get me

and I just use the ipod to change songs

Thanks Goose, thats what I want to do, have you used an fm transmitter? I find it quiet and the sound sounds flat.

No i haven't, always been intrigued and wanting to try one but I find cable is suited just for how I want it.

you can get things like this:

item number 290133521670

for the alpine heads, but i dont know if you can get em with the ip-bus end on for your head. That type will offer best sound quality as its taking a digital signal to the head instead of going digital-analouge-digital if you went through the headphone socket or something like that.

I got an aux input for my ipod, which plugged into the cd changer socket. It was cheap, the sound's good, and I can still control the 'pod from its own controls (it sits on a bracket on the dash).

Think that's the same as this? 230165823651.

Thanks for all the input so far guys, your more help than the car audio forum I've been on :lol:

If it were me i would do the 2nd most cheap and cheerful option like what 6NEWMAN ahs done. Buy an aux in cable if your headunit has a aux in or cd changer sockets in the back. The lead is just a red and a black plug that goes into a 3.5mm headphone jack.

It is really easy to route the wires into the glovebox below your steering wheel so your i pod can sit and be connected in there out of sight. Thats what i'd do..........
