Thread: Thank you to you all

i am... and i can say that the quality is acceptable... like your best FM radio station.

as King Snake said the qual can be okay, but you do suffer a drop in bass with the limited freq range of FM.......

Are FM Modulators still in the $50 range?

and not those crappy soundfeeders, they suck big time.

If so, you can just spend that money on a Jensen CR-530X tape deck. It has a 1/8" CD input jack on the back and is $60 at Wal*Mart and $50 at Pep-Boys. They may have them at AutoZone, but I can't ever find them there.

I have this deck in my truck right now, and it works beautifully, for the wattage--I can't remember off the top of my head, but I think its less than 100W total output. Its got 1 set of preouts so you can hook it up to an amp if you want it louder.

I got one at Target for $20 last year. Wasn't worth 50 cents. I hear the more expensive ones are better, but hang on to your receipt reguardless...

I ended up running over to the local Audio King and got a discontinued Kenwood(head unit) for $100 and an RCA-input connector for $20.

I got my FM modulator for about $35 on eBay. I have had no problems with it and contrary to what most people say the sound quality isn't bad at all. I get tons of bass since I add the PC in the car with the right plug-ins. With the sound card, then head unit, then amp, I get more bass than I could before.
