Re: Best FM Transmitter (mp3 player to car radio)
Does your head unit have a tape deck? If so I'd just get one of those cheap $9 cassette adapters. They sound much better than FM transmitters and are cheaper too. I still use mine, works great. |

Well I would agree the belkin one is junk, I have 2 good ones that were norwood FM digital transmitters that are excellent. Problem is they don't make them anymore.
So far a nice equivalent seems to be one that I got at wal-mart for about $10 and it's in the automotive section. has a switch and has a range of frequencies.
Like you I am frustrated at the FM transmitter lack of enthusiasm as well.

I've had good luck with an FM modulator. I use the one linked and had no problems driving from Louisiana to Cali.

I've tried the Belkin and the Monster FM transmitters. Neither worked well at all here in Los Angeles. I doubt those cheap transmitters would work well in any large city.

Well, a popular modulator with possibly the best sound quality is the c.crane fm transmitter available here: »www.ccrane.com/radios/fm-transmi···ter.aspx
There is information out there on how to increase the transmission range on this thing too.  |

best choice is getting a head unit that supports aux in or minijack in |

I would guess in this respect NYC is similar to Atlanta. Here I have tried several transmitters, from the cheap to the expensive, and none work worth a darn. There is simply too much interference. |

Being in NYC, I doubt you will find one that uses a freq that won't have interference. |

I have had good luck with Coby's CA-738, which is pictured here: »www.google.com/products/catalog?···-sellers
In Calgary, Alberta Canada, I was not aware of one frequency since I haven't listened to FM radio there in a while. However, tuning around, I was able to find a frequency with minimal interference from an adjacent station.
I hope you have good luck on finding a unit. This was just my suggestion. |

|  I want to buy a very good FM Transmitter (mp3 player to car radio)
all that I have tried have given me poor sound quality
in part it's due to me being in NYC, very FM noisy place, so maybe it's impossible to achieve good reception?
so I'm looking for something that is not there?
but maybe someone can link me to some good product
from here
»shop.ebay.com/FM%20Transmitter?_···r&_naf=1
or here »www.google.com/products?hl=en&lr···nsmitter
Thank you... |
