It works, and for 3 dollars...eh it doesn't compare to major brands :(
(3 out of 5) by C.I on Jul 22, 2009 (Glendale, CA USA)I had an old pair from panasonic which broke because of heavy usage. I didnt want to spend 15 or 20 dollars at the store for one of these so I decided to check out amazon. saw this for 19 cents and was pretty much attracted to buy it. with tax and shipping it became 3 dollars. i said to myself eh well this could be a cheap solution. I read the reviews and decided to take a chance. it came in the mail in 4 days and went straight to try it out in the car. first thing i noticed that the packaging was very CHEAP. the plastic looked bad and the tape looked like it was used and just quickly put together.
I put it in the stereo and put the volume on my ipod max and speakers low. then played it. it sounded like the bass was gonna explode! so I lowered the ipod volume to half way and increased the car volume. It got a whole lot better. next thing i noticed was that there was static noise. but its not noticeable too much unless the volume is really low.
the tape also made noises in the player like cracky noises.
I kinda feel dissapointed that the thing is not really good quality. but for 3 bucks I guess its a temporary solution to listen to my ipod in the car until i buy a better one in the store. If you have money, dont waste time waiting for this, just go to the store buy the 10 15 or 20 dollar brand version and it should work perfectly. this one has a lot of issues.
it works however and if you can stand tiny static when low volume, bass implosion if the volume is extremely loud and a litte rattling noise. this thing is really worth just 3 dollars (including shipping handling and tax of course)

Good quality for such a low price. I was shocked!
(4 out of 5) by Me on Jul 30, 2009 (Florida)I bought one a year ago, and if it wasn't for my clumsyness, I'd still have it. It worked surprisingly well for such an inexpensive item.
I've seen major chains try to sell these for $20 and up. Remember when they were made for CD players a few years ago, and they were only about $5-10? Now they're marketed as an "IPOD" item, so all of a sudden they're worth about twice as much. Thats BS.
I'm ordering my 2nd one of these.

Works as advertised
(4 out of 5) by M. Lifshits on Apr 19, 2009 (Los Angeles, CA)Great adapter. Works far, far better than some similarly-priced ones I ordered elsewhere. Does not add hiss to the signal. Unfortunately, it does occasianlly rattle inside the casette deck and has to be reinserted. For the price, though, I'm willing to live with that.
