At first my music sounded horrible. I figured out that I needed to turn down the volume control on my iPod AND take the EQ setting off (which I'd set to "Bass Booster").

Having gotten past that, I enjoyed pretty decent (but not great) sound quality, only to have another problem crop up. My car's tape deck began reversing direction automatically every few seconds, cutting off the music each time. Ugh!...

I hope this is fixable (haven't found the solution yet), but I sure could have used some clearer directions when I bought the adapter.

So...so far, I'm finding this is not a carefree "plug & play" product. Hopefully, it'll wind up being fully functional, though.

I plugged this into my car stereo and had to turn the volume up all the way on the stereo AND on the iPod just to get the audio to a barely satisfactory volume level. Also, there was a lot of noise from the cable.

I returned this immediately.
