Questions & Answers

Shopper : Can you use this device with an Android?JAMES S : Yes, just plug it into the headphone jack.DANIEL G : Yes, as long as the android device has 3.5mm headphone jackTHERESA H : I’ve only used it with an iPhone.DAVID S : I don't see why not. The 3.5 mm jack is connected to your device. As long as your device has a jack, you should be able to use it. It should work no problem.
Shopper : Is this product compatible with auto reverse cassette deck?EMILE A : Yeah. Auto-reverse decks flip over when the amount of resistance to the tape advance rollers exceeds a certain threshold, indicating the end of the tape. Since the cassette adapter is basically just a shell, there is no such resistance threshold reached, hence no auto-reverse flip.LAWRENCE H : I don't know if it will work in an auto reverse deck, but the cord only could be used with one type of cassette player in my cars. In one of my cars the cassette goes in end first and in the other one the cassette goes in with the tape side first. I got it to use it in the second car, but it would not work there, so I had to return it. LH - CaliforniaDEEPAK S : Yes it works with auto reverse deck.
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?Rudolph C : it seems to fit what im looking for - a cd converter kit to play casette tapes

Reasonably priced and a familiar brand

Reasonably priced and a familiar brand. The shipping did take awhile but since this is my back up I did not need it immediately.

Nice and Solid

There was no problem connecting the audio from the phone to blast music in the car. The audio was clear and had no signs of interfering noises apart from the music playing. My favorite element of the adapter is the L-shaped cable connecting it to the phone because it is more durable than stick linear plug-ins. Overall, the quality is great considering the decent price.

Just buy this one.

There are a lot of cheapy cassette adapters. Why spend $5 when the sound is terrible and you end up buying a better one? Buy it once with the Sony. I've owned the Monster adapter and the cord was weak and stopped giving me stereo sound. I think the Monster is slightly better in sound quality than this Sony. However, the Sony has an angled cord that prevents bending and wear on the cord.

Highest quality adapter ever!

The cable is quite long which is really not a complaint but if you try to take up the slack on it, I noticed some interference.
