Default Impressed by MP3 cassette

Just bought an MP3 Cassette so i can play my ipod through my symphony radio cassette player. It was made by Mbeats and cost £4 in asda.
The quality of the sound is amazing for the money i was really impressed. Bring on the sounds lol.

I recommended them a couple of weeks ago & shortly after tried mine again for the first time in a while only to be dismayed at the hiss. I think l'll clean the contact & cassette head & try again. If not then l'll buy a new one as it's a good few years old (l bought it for a portable CD, remember them?).
I do have a Symphony to replace the Harmony too, so l'll make sure l clean the head on that as well.
Ideally l want a hardwired socket in the armrest but the cassette method is a convenient alternative if l l can get the sound-quality l want. Getting a socket installed seems to be not without it's hassles.

The cassette is much easier and it works well with the symphonys 25watts per channel. I can remember personal CD players and getting one for xmas lol that was a long time ago i can also remember my 1st sony walkman used to play it non stop. Those were the days werent they.
