In this day and age of iPods and MP3 players, the idea of having an in-dash cassette player may seem kind of quaint. However, for those of you have a large cassette collection, you can get great deals on in-dash players, and there actually quite a few options to choose from.
The Boss Audio C3040 In-Dash Auto-Reverse Cassette Receiver, for example, is a great low-cost indash cassette player with advanced features such as a fully detachable front panel, 30 radio station presets, AUX and mobile video input, and balance and fade controls.
For those of you looking for a more full featured in-dash player, you’ll want to check out the Pioneer FH-P4200MP In Dash Player. This versatile in-dash player features support for CDs and MP3 players, in addition to cassette tapes, and is XM satellite radio enabled. No matter what format your music’s in, this smart player will let you take it on the road.
If you aren’t quite looking to get such an advanced music system, but still want to enjoy music from your MP3 player in your car, then a cassette adapter might be the perfect solution for you. Cassette adapters are designed to work with iPods and other MP3 players that feature AUX output, and can allow you to play your favorite MP3s through any in-dash cassette player.
With all these great music options to choose from, you should be rocking out in your car with your cassettes in no time!
