The reason I mentioned the Car make was to make it obvious that any
suggestion as to replacing the standard equipment radio with anything else
was out of the question.. For one thing it is an absolutely splendid
sounding setup and is blended into the dash like no other radio possibly
could. I experience no adverse effects on the radio's performance by any
extraneous noises from inside or outside of the car. FYI, in my neck of the
woods it is illegal to use a cellular phone let alone wear earphones while
operating a motor vehicle on the highway.
I have to reiterate that the sound emanating from the <SONY> cassette
adapter that I have used is not comparable to the quality of sound that I
enjoy from the radio or the in dash cassette player and has been dispensed
with altogether. I shall have to resort to taking the car and the portable
MD player into a reputable car radio retailer/installer establishment
tomorrow and hear what they have to say. The Audi technician suggested that
maybe such an establishment could fashion a cable that has a mini stereo
plug on one end and a 5 pin DIN plug on the other. Thanks anyway.
