How Does a Cassette Adapter Work?
- Many cars come equipped with a cassette deck, but few people still use tapes as their primary music source. Cassette adapters are used to play music from an audio device, such as a CD player or iPod, through the cassette desk. These audio accessories resemble a cassette tape with an attached headphone cord, and are available at most retail stores
- A standard cassette has a single component, the magnetic media or "ribbon," which is wound in the cassette and stores each song as magnetic data. The cassette deck contains a component known as a read head, which reads the data stored on the ribbon. After reading the magnetic field emitted by the ribbon, it converts the field to an electronic signal and transmits the signal to the speakers for playback. Some cassette decks have a write head, which converts an electronic signal to a magnetic field for storage on the ribbon
- A cassette adapter is simply the shell of a cassette tape with an internal write head. It has a short ribbon which spins continuously, but stores no data. An audio cable, usually with a 1/8-inch headphone plug, is attached to the cassette shell and is used to input audio signals from an external device. When the device sends audio through the cable, it is transmitted as an electronic signal. Once this signal reaches the write head inside the adapter, it is converted to a magnetic field. The field is then read by the cassette desk, converted back to an electronic signal and sent to your car's speakers
How to Choose and Use An iPod Cassette Adapter?
- If you have a cassette deck in your car, and an iPod, purchase a cassette adapter. This cassette shaped device will allow you to listen to your iPod though your car's tape deck.
Instructions:
- Shop for a cassette tape adapter at a local electronics store, big box electronics store, the electronics section of a supermarket, or online. The varying quality of the cassette tape adapters purchased at any of these locations isn't much of an issue.
- Purchase a mid-range cassette tape adapter. Don't buy the cheapest one available, as it will likely break quickly. There's no need to buy the highest quality adapter unless you want as high fidelity a sound as you can achieve. A $20 - $25 adapter is a good compromise.
- Put the cassette tape adapter into the cassette deck of your car.
- Plug the mini jack at the end of the cassette adapter cord into the headphone jack on the top of your iPod.
- Control the volume with both your iPod and the car stereo.
- The iPod volume should be over half-way up in order for the audio to come through the stereo properly.
Tips & Warnings:
- Don't drive while changing songs on your iPod. It's extremely dangerous. Make a playlist before you start driving.
