THE OFFICAL iphone fm transmitter thread!!

[trdkamuri51o]

ok ok ok we all see multipul threads out there but there is NOTHING concrete to say what does or doesnt work...

this thread should help those looking for a FM TRANSMITTER FOR THEIR Iphone.

*but wait why not buy an aux input or a blah tape deck*

well for those of you who dont know.. not everyone has aux inputs on their stereos YET nor does everyone have tapedecks in their car (hello 2008 not 1988 do automakers even include tapes in their cars still??)

so here is a list of those of us stuck between having nothing or poor quality

post your make/model of your fm adaptor, ISSUES with it, reception, airplane mode required to work at all (some will not work whatsoever unless its in airplane mode others will)

format:

BRAND:
MODEL:
AIRPLANE MODE REQUIRED?
RECEPTION:

AUX INPUT (3.5mm headphone jack for better audio control)
CHARGING ABILITY:Y/N??


mine:

RECEPTION: WITH AIRPLANE NOTHING INTERFERS AND IM IN THE BAY AREA... HOWEVER OUT OF AIRPLANE MODE IT HAS 5/10 RECEPTION LOCAL RADIO STATIONS INTERRUPT QUITE OFTEN

BRAND: Monster Cable
MODEL: Monster Cable AICHG2IP
AIRPLANE MODE REQUIRED? Nope
RECEPTION: Decent
COST: $30 online
AUX INPUT (3.5mm headphone jack for better audio control) None

I was using this for a while, would go on long drives and get sick of changing stations. I installed a new radio, wired a cable through it, and direct connect it now. That's the way to go.

*I'd recommend this though to those that don't to much driving > 50 miles from their home.

**No charging capabilities
