Amazon.com Product Description
The Sony CPA-9C cassette adaptor allows you to connect your minidisc or CD player to a vehicle cassette player. While this Sony product works best with Sony CD and MD players, the adaptor will operate with non-Sony products as well. There are a couple of key features to this adaptor which make it a fine choice. The first notable feature is the spring-loaded head. The head will automatically adjust itself to your vehicle's cassette deck, ensuring that the two heads have optimum contact and transfer the best possible sound. The second key feature is the silent mechanism. A silent mechanism yields less operational noise and a better quality MD or CD sound. This adaptor works with all cassette players which require you to insert the tape opening facing the side. The mini-plug inserts into a portable CD or MD headphone jack. The cassette adaptor is a cheap way to make your vehicle CD and MD operational.

CPA-9C's silent mechanism reduces mechanical noise on the road. And the self-adjusting spring-loaded head maintains optimum contact with your cassette deck's tape head.

5 out of 5 stars Works great in my GM truck   November 29, 2008
D. Harlan (Oregon)
This works great in my GM truck (radio by Delco?). Other brands that I've tried would always trigger the cassette eject system. This is the second one I've owned, the first one worked for years before the cassette player started ejecting it too.

Sound is just fine. My car isn't very noisy, but I've never had much use for ultra-high fidelity while driving as there's just too much road noise. This adapter sounds much better than any of the FM transmitters I've tried and is considerably easier to use.




3 out of 5 stars Does the job   November 25, 2008
David Wade Smith (Great Barrington, MA)
This thing works just fine for what it does: provide a way to hook an mp3 player into a car cassette deck. The sound quality absolutely beats an FM transmitter. That said, the device itself makes a certain amount of noise--not much, and I've had similar devices that were louder--but you can definitely hear it if the audio you're playing is quiet and your car's noise doesn't overpower it.

this thing does just what I want it to do, play music. It can be a little noisy at times, but it sounds much better than most fm tuners. Just get one and stop shopping around.


4 out of 5 stars what worth you pay   November 23, 2008

I bought the sony cassette adapter for connecting my ipod to my old car. It is a really good and worthy stuff for its great quality and easy use.
The small problem is that the interface is too simple (only 1 mini-plug). Sony should improve it to adapt more audio device outputs. That is the reason why I give it 4 stars.



3 out of 5 stars not horrible for the price   November 17, 2008
J. Tippett (Tuscaloosa, AL)
I was happy with the cassette adapter initially. I use it for my ipod and the sound quality is much better than the fm transmitter i was using. But after just a few uses, when inserting the cassette, the stereo gives an error saying "check tape" and i have to eject and reinsert the cassette several times before it works properly.
