Aluratek Universal Bluetooth Audio Cassette Adapter for Music Streaming

dci: Could be a bit noisy when playing, but in a diesel truck it's very quiet.

ReallyAlive2020: Only works in older basic decks. Fancy decks with automatic stop/start features seem to reject the play command and kicks it to the stop position. Useless in those fancy decks. Be aware. Otherwise the unit Bluetooth functions do work properly as designed. Just may be disappointing to find out your deck is incompatible. Check your deck before ordering this item. If you have the fancy type, probably won’t work for you. If it won’t stay in Play mode, the read head will not stay in contact with the device and therefore the audio will not pass through to your stereo at all. Not a fault of the device. Just that fancy decks have tension sensors for the physical tape of normal cassettes. With no actual tape within these adapters there is nothing to sense. The Stop command happens by default. Older more basic decks are less picky.

Philippe Robichaud: Je suis super content de mon achat parce que je peux garder la radio original de mon Jeep. Seul petit problème c'est qu'on se peut changer la musique avec le bouton de la radio mais reste un très bon produit

Kamal M: Was about to return the product because of very loud static noise, but then I accidentally put it in the wrong way and its gone, instructions are misleading as it makes very loud static noise when put in the right way, you turn it upside down, no static noise and sounds better. So if you are facing same issue try putting it in upside down.

Zach Hutchinson: This Bluetooth cassette is excellent. Connection to iPhone was quick and easy. Sound is great. This is a 2006 motor coach with a kick in’ sound system, except how to get the music into it, since I threw out all my old mixed tapes. Buy this if you want to rock, and not buy a whole new carRV stereo.

Brooke Gilliam: The media could not be loaded.  Every song or podcast played on this sounds fuzzy. Podcasts are especially bad, it makes everyone sound like a robot, obviously this applies to music as well. It stops playing if there is a slight bump in the road or if I make a turn. It also fails to turn off with the car as advertised, and never charges up all the way. Its only saving grace is that it did work, just not well at all. You're better off getting a cassette to aux adapter, they're cheaper and the sound quality is much better.

Update: It's new favorite thing to do is pop out of my player randomly. It will do this MULTIPLE times per song and doesn't pause the music that I'm listening to when it does it. It is INCREDIBLY annoying and has put this product on the list of things that has earned my hatred.
In summary, this thing is AWFUL. I never misused it and followed every direction given to me by the packaging. It only lasted maybe a WEEK before developing these terrible aspects. Absolutely terrible product, I really wish that I'm the only one who experienced this.

I got a video of it clicking and popping out on its own. There are no other buttons for ejecting a...

Jonathan Arrieta S: Muy buena calidad del audio, lo ocupé en un Mercedes de los 90 y se escucha de maravilla. Se carga en una hora. Los únicos inconvenientes es que hace mucho ruido interno. Mi solución fue lubricar los engranes con aceite teflon. Ya llevo 3 meses y sigue funcionando muy bien

AMA CUSTOMER: Ok so I won’t butcher this product but there’s some things you need to know-

Pros: cassette adapter is simplistic in design and easy to use
•battery life is incredible for what I’ve gotten out of it. I’ve been able to run a full week and a half on a single charge playing 1-2 full hours a day. Compared to a previous adapter I’ve purchased.

Cons:
•Sound Quality is absolute doggy doo. Within the first day of using this specific product I had fuzzy sound at FULL volume. Went to adjust volume on my device to counteract that (Do not go above 75% volume on device or you will get fuzzy sound !) also if you like to mess with equalizers this product does not sound good with equalizers
• First time ever using this product I had a flippin EJECTING ISSUE!!!!!! Why in KENTUCKY FRIED HECK does a stereo cock-block a cassette ON THE FIRST GO ? So I have to jiggy-Rig every time I want to listen to music…. Terrific.

Take away from this product- if you have a short temper, superior music expectations, and don’t want to waste time or money- don’t buy this.

Real Name: Unlike my old wired cassette adapter, I really like the clean wireless look of this in my dash. Passengers don't even know I am using a bluetooth adapter.

Connecting to bluetooth is easy and reliable. You do have to turn the adapter on every time you get in the car, since it does not automatically turn on when inserted into the tape deck, but that's not too big of a deal to me. The adapter turns off automatically after 5 minutes to save battery when not connected to your phone, or you can turn it off manually.

Battery life seems good. I've been using it every other day or so for the last couple of weeks on a single charge. The box says it has 6 hours of battery life. One downside, to recharge the adapter it cannot be in the cassette player.

The sound quality is good and about the best you can expect with a cassette adapter. I also have a quality wired cassette adapter and in comparison it it sounds about the same.

Like other reviewers said there was gear noise when playing, but I removed the 2 smallest gears and very lightly lubed the large ones, and now the gears are virtually unnoticeable when the music was playing. I may even try removing all the...
