Arsvita Car Audio Bluetooth Wireless Cassette Receiver, Tape Player Bluetooth 5.0 Cassette Aux Adapter, Black

I purchased this cassette to add Bluetooth to an old retro Ghetto Blaster. I took seconds to get paired up to my phones Bluetooth and works perfectly. Yes the cassette does make a little noise which can be stopped by pressing pause. As long as the the heads are making contact it still plays which would be a great benefit if the belts were worn or broken in your player? Very happy with this product 👍 Update I have taken this product apart (easy diy) and added a little LM grease to the internal gears and now it runs completely silent and still working great 👍

There's a mechanical connection between the tape "spools" in this that squeaks as they move. How much this matters will depend on what you're using it in---with a full-size tape deck or boombox, you can probably hit pause and it will stop turning the motor but keep the play head engaged, solving the problem. In a car deck or something where that's not an option, this could drive you up the wall. It *has* settled a bit in noise since it was new, and honestly I suspect if you're willing to risk breaking a fairly cheap get-what-you-pay-for product you could probably get in and lubricate it better. In my case, I can just pause+play. As a bluetooth device, it's fine, it's very much a cheap slightly-weird single-button affair that's sometimes a bit finnicky about reconnecting, but seems solid enough once it's going. The quality of the actual audio is good and the levels seem sensible. The head is stereo and I *think* it's coated to protect your equipment from metal-on-metal scratching. Most importantly, it's normal casette-sized, with only a very slight button lump that doesn't go beyond the usual guides, so it should fit in most loading mechanisms and let the door close behind it---be careful not to get the version with the dongle if you're using it with a boombox or hi-fi deck.

Instead of hunting down cassettes from a well known auction site, this tape turns any unit to a Bluetooth receiver. You can stream any music service to old boomboxes or old car stereos. My boombox tape player works but now I can stream 80s music to it from my iPhone. The only bug is there’s a low buzzing noise due to the head needing cleaning but if you turn the stereo down and your phone up it’s like being back as a child. It’s a simple setup up, charge and press the button which will flash blue and comes up on your Bluetooth list, open your music and press play. There’s not many of these that would come the next day but ordered and came on time, including is a micro usb cable that’s for charging the unit which will give you hours of playback. Highly recommended if your tape player won’t work as all it needs is the head of the player to make contact, I have no idea how it works after that but it does.

The product is professionally packaged and seems to be quite well made. Although the instructions aren't in the best English, they are quite comprehensible enough to follow. Now for the plus and minus points on the use of the product. On the plus side: * Charged quickly. * Easy to set up and use. * Paired with my phone no problem through Bluetooth and provided I stayed within a few meters, the pairing proved to be reliable. On the minus side: * First attempt at use was in an old portable cassette player. This did not work, because the cassette locating spring in the cassette player comes into contact with the on/off switch on the cassette. Not my ultimate intended use of the cassette, but a pity nonetheless. * Next, I tried my luck with the casette's intended use, which is to get integration between my phone and my 2005 Jaguar XK8. This started off fairly promisingly, in that I quickly got a signal, but.... * With just the phone paired, the cassette in the tape deck and the tape deck running (no music playing yet) I could hear a distinct low frequency audio pulse every 0.5 secs, similar in character to a bass drum, but slightly higher and softer. Most irritating! * Things didn't get any better when I attempted to play music. Now I got yet another low frequency pulse, similar to the first, but softer and approx every 0.1 seconds. * Attempting to change the position of the device, location of the car (just in case it was external interference), volume settings on tape deck and device, car engine on and off, did nothing to improve the situation. Pulses still clearly audible over the music. * Suspect that this device will have different levels of success with different cars, but I can't get it to perform with my XK8. I'm going to contact the manufacturer to get their comments, as I'd really like this device to work.

Sound quality is actually really clear, more so than previous Bluetooth adapters I've used: hardly any 'whine' in the background that I can hear regardless of DNR setting (although DNR off does produce slightly higher quality sound). I did find that it would play audio both forwards and when the stereo was in reverse; however, the sound was very quiet when running in reverse - probably to be expected, and a simple thing to check if your sound is super quiet. It DOES play stereo, and I have had no issues with head alignment. Unfortunately, the overall quality of the unit was pretty poor, there was a lot of noise from the (plastic) geartrain - my solution was to unscrew and prise open the case, and remove said geartrain since my stereo doesn't have any auto-skipping function to require it. Also, the unit itself is incredibly lightweight, more so than a regular cassette. The battery - whilst undoubtedly providing decent playtime - is minuscule (170mAh IIRC, might've been 130mAh though). Finally, the one-button interface was a little temperamental at first, requiring multiple 'smooshes' to get it to actually respond... To be fair, this does seem to have gotten better after a couple of uses. TL;DR: Entirely functional, decent sound, but not a particularly enjoyable user experience.

Il suono è stereo,nessun rumore di sottofondo,facile da usare,batteria tiene a lungo,a me funziona davvero bene,se vi funziona male è possibile che la vostra radio abbia problemi

Contrairement à une autre que j'avais essayé et qui était en mono, cette cassette edt bieb stéréo. Et qui plud est la qualité de la conversation numérique analogique est vraiment bonne pour cette catégorie de produit. Dommage simplement qu'il faille éjecter la cassette pour l'allumer. Donc quand on rentre dans la voiture il faut éjecter la cassette, appuyer 3s sur le bouton pour l'allumer puis la repousser dans le lecteur.

Pude que funcione bien en una radio cassette en un coche, ya que la batería proporciona corriente continua sin rizaduras. Pero en una micro cadena enchufada a la red eléctrica reproduce irritantemente el zumbido de 50 Hz propio de la corriente alterna.

Testé pour une moto , Honda 1500 Goldwing avec son vieux poste cassette, cela fonctionne très bien et le son retransmit depuis le téléphone en bluetooth est bien meilleur que d'origine. Autonomie de plus de 3h testée pour ma part, et n'était apparemment pas encore vide
