Hi to all

I have the FM modulator which anyone can see on the following link.

https://www.lightinthebox.com/Car-MP3-Player---FM-Transmitter-with-SD-Slot-Bulit-in-1GB-Memory-CP-V062--Start-From-20-Units-_p23997.html

My question is that, Is there any way to connect this Fm modulator directly to car stereo, because when we use FM as a transmitter in this device the sound quality is very poor, I mean flat bass and no high tones. Please give me your expert opinion.

Thanks in advance
Regards

In my experience those transmit a very weak signal. Get a hardwired FM modulator and hook it in directly through the antenna lead. You will need a stereo jack to RCA adapter cable.

This is an example of what I'm talking about, but they can be had cheaper.

And yet ANOTHER noob that didn't read the forum rules about eBay links BEFORE he signed up!

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

Sorry, joined a long time ago (check the date) and have been lurking but didn't know there were rules against posting ebay links. I would edit the post for you but I can't. I wasn't posting it to promote the sale by any means if that makes a difference, just showing a picture for descriptive purposes.

Just for the record, I was trying to help the guy out, save your attitude for somebody that deserves it. No reason to get all puffy chested, just send a PM. Jerk.
