Customer Review: Fixing the auto reverse problem
Summary: 5 Stars
I just received my unit and was aware of the possible problem with auto reverse when I bought it. But being unhappy with the quality of FM transmitters, I thought the price was worth the risk. When I plugged the Coby into my car cassette it did a couple of auto reverses and then spit the Coby out. Having read the review from 3/07 about taking the unit apart and removing the center gear, I got out my small Philips and had at it(2 screws on one side and a bunch on the other). Be careful because the parts inside the cassette fall out pretty easily. But removing the center gear worked and the sound is very good except for a little clatter from the cassette. I would guess highway noise will cover that up.Customer Review: Finally found one that works
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't usually post reviews, but I thought I'd share my experience to help others save some time. After much frustration trying other brands/car adapters (including 2 tapes: Griffin smartdeck & Monster, and 1 fm transmitter: Monster w/ battery charger) for my ipod, then returning them because they did not work or the sound was not great, this one made me happy because it works exactly like I thought it should. Pretty quiet, and works with my nano ipod, and cassette player in a 2001 honda accord. At first, I couldn't get it work, but then I auto reversed so that the arrow points up. After that, it fell into place. Set my nano volume at about 60-75% and started receiving clear, amazing results.Customer Review: Dont Go With Sony !
Summary: 5 Stars
This one is way better quality than sony cassette adapter, and we can change the position of the cord so you can put in the cassette vertically or horizontally inside your deck depends on your head unit. And also i love the coiled cable your car will look neater when using it. I had sony and only last for couple of months, and coby has better sound quality when i play different kinds of music, bass and treble are decent, and way quieter than sony's when it's been played (you have to remember that it's still a cassette, means mechanical makes sounds). So overall, i love this product, i love shopping on amazon using their PRIME service (2 day delivered for free!), just love it! Thanks.Customer Review: What a Surprise
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently started fooling around with an MP3 player for the 1st time. I had just bought a Xitel Inport Deluxe that lets me turn all my old records and cassettes into MP3 files. How to get them to play through my car's sound system? FM modulators sounded really iffy. Could something that costs $7 really do the job? The cord on the Coby can be plugged in in 2 different directions, from the back or from the side. It came with the cord in the back. I plugged it in and nothing came out of my speakers. Then I read the directions and plugged the cord into the side of the cassette, as soon as it went into the tape deck, this wonderful music came out of my speakers.
Great deal!
Customer Review: The Coby works great!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just got mine, and have tried it in two different front loading car players. It sounds terrific in both. However, the second player is smart, and almost outsmarted me. :-) I found that, if the music isn't playing through the Coby when it is inserted, the player doesn't think a tape is there, and it won't enter play mode. If you turn the volume all the way up, you can hear a fuzzy version of the music anyway, which confused me for an hour or so. Once I realized the music needed to be on, and the Coby plugged into my iPod before putting it into the cassette player, it started working perfectly. Keep this in mind if you have trouble with yours...
Highly recommended!
