And they make brand new ones that use Bluetooth : https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC

Not sure about the 2010, but my previous car (02 Taurus) had a tape deck. A CD player, or if you were really rich, a 6-CD changer were options. I ended up buying a bluetooth cassette adapter which worked OK.

Bluetooth cassettes exist or you can use this iPhone 7 car charger from Scosche that will charge the phone and provide a plug for your cassette adapter.

Get a bluetooth one with a built in mic and boom, wireless music and hands free phone talking. It works great!

Cassette bluetooth adapter

Problem solved for the cassette adapter issue.

Here you go, https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC

Dreams do come true.

this would work

I get that's not ideal, but when you're using a technology that's nearly 50 years old (cassettes went into car stereos in 1968) you can't be that disappointed a tech company wouldn't be thinking of your needs.

Edit: fixed link

FM transmistters are garbage. However, I swear by this; a bluetooth casette adapter.

You could always use a wired one; but I've had little luck with those.

https://smile.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC
Works great, just gotta keep noise going through it if you're in a ford or it will start auto-seeking.

I just got a dedicated Bluetooth cassette tape: https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC

It's awesome that you don't even know it's there and the battery lasts like 1.5 months.

That's why I have one of these

This is what I use. You just have to remember to charge it.

I got this one. I've only had it for about a week but the sound quality is good.

They make bluetooth ones now too.

bluetooth

Yo! ION Audio Cassette Adapter Bluetooth | Bluetooth Music Receiver for Cassette Decks https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I3YLHAC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_vFHMzb8H6FVM9

I've had one for more than a year and it work perfectly! Wayyy better than a fm transmitter

got this for my wife for xmas and she loves it, cheap elegant solution that adds no wires anywhere:

http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth-Receiver/dp/B00I3YLHAC/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1451771122&sr=1-1&keywords=bluetooth+cassette+adapter

do recommend you get two after awhile so you can have one ready and charged with less hassle. Remember to remove the film from the roller/reader thing before using for improved sound quality. Cheers!

I just use a regular cassette tape auxiliary adapter right now.

These are supposed to be pretty nice, though: https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC

You can, actually! There's a microphone in the adapter that you can pull out and it will dangle from the tape deck. It's pretty cool:

https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1499370146&sr=8-1&keywords=bluetooth+cassette+adapter

Besides the usual safety things like a jack or window smasher I would get a cassette to Bluetooth insert like this or a cassette to aux like this the radio isn’t much fun and you can then play your own music. I think a name that kinda comes naturally will end up being more meaningful than a forced one from the internet.

https://www.amazon.ca/ION-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth-Receiver/dp/B00I3YLHAC yeah exactly

They got them all built in one now.

Can you link me to the one you got him? The one I saw had the micro-usb port on the front side of the tape as opposed to one of the ends so you couldn't really charge it in while it was in the deck. If I could it charge while it stayed in the deck I would be over the moon.

edit

Actually this one has the plug on the end: https://www.amazon.ca/Ion-Audio-Bluetooth-Receiver-Cassette/dp/B00I3YLHAC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1457650571&sr=8-1&keywords=bluetooth+tape+adapter

I worry that the actual plug itself will not let the tape lower into operating position once it has been pushed into the deck... I'll have to read some reviews, thanks for the heads up!

edit again

I think I'll be able to take the thing apart and wire up an external charging cable. It's got to be better than the wired tape adapter I'm suffering with now.

if your car has a tape player you can get a bluetooth cassette like this https://www.amazon.ca/Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth-Receiver/dp/B00I3YLHAC

This is the other way. This plays tapes and transmits the audio over Bluetooth. What you need is one of these. I used to have a pair that I would swap out when the battery got low. The sound quality is great and it turns on when the tape head touches it so it doesn’t have to be turned on and off.

If you've got an old fashioned tape deck then this witchcraft should have you covered. Has a built in microphone for calls too apparently.

I'm actually interested what kind of sound quality you can get out of one of these.

Bluetooth tape adapter. I use it in my Jeep and works surprisingly well.

https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC

> Is there a Bluetooth to cassette deck adapter?

Yes: https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC

But seriously, if your car radio is so old that it doesn't even have Bluetooth, you should buy a new car radio instead of a new phone.

They have ones now that let you stream over bluetooth

Behold the glory!

Oh I misread. I thought he was talking about those cassette tapes that bring Bluetooth to a regular tape deck, similar to the ones that have an aux cord built in.


Edit: this is what I thought he was referring to.

>They do however have a cassette deck for which I can buy a cheap adapter that I permanently keep in the deck.

Now you're just trying to inconvenience yourself. You can buy a aux to whatever adapter and leave it on the end of the cassette adapter or leave it in the glove box. You can buy a bluetooth cassette tape. You can buy a bluetooth to aux adapter and throw it on the end of the cassette adapter and not have to plug anything at all in, plus get the bonus of being able to change tracks without digging into the phone and answer calls without touching the phone.

Or, considering it's old enough for cassette it's probably a DIN or Double DIN slot, so save up a bit of coin and for your/her birthday and splurge on a nice relitevely cheap CarPlay/AA radio and get a whole load of benifits like Navigation.

https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC

Anyone have experience using bluetooth cassette adapters for the car?

Wondering if it would be better than an aux tape adapter.

Is..... is this really a thing? Is this a thing I can buy?? Right now???? For real????????

EDIT: oh my god it IS!!!!!!!!!

Or just buy the bluetooth cassette adapter. $20, but it works awesome. https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC

I love this thing. https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC
I didn't want to replace the factory stereo and this solved that problem!

If someone actually has a cassette player in their car, here's what you do. Buy a lot of weird hipster tapes and make sure that the radio doesn't work either. People will be be infuriated when they can't listen to anything they want. And when alone pop a bluetooth cassette adapter in and listen to Spotify like a normal human being.

I'm pretty sure I've seen Bluetooth tape adapters..

Alternatively if your Disco still has an original deck, ION makes a wireless Bluetooth Tape Adapter. It has a rechargeable battery that lasts about 4 hours. Sound quality is very good for $20.



I contemplated doing some modification to the sound system to rig up an Aux or Bluetooth connection but I've got enough electrical issues to deal with with out cutting wires! Looks like you know what you're doing though - nicely done.

no idea what you mean by "copy input" (is this for another source to record into the tape drive?). Did this use to work? You probably need to activate a line monitor or actually press PLAY+RECORD or something to hear anything in this case. Normally these inputs won't output anything unless you are actually recording or monitoring the tape levels. You could also just buy a bluetooth cassette. https://www.amazon.com/Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth-Receiver/dp/B00I3YLHAC/

I swear I saw a bluetooth tape adapter somewhere...

There: https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC

something like this might work

https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1481683803&sr=8-1&keywords=bluetooth+receiver+tape

If you have a tape deck you can use a special aux cassette or a Bluetooth one, although youll need to charge the Bluetooth one when it dies.

There are manufacturers for these neat rechargeable bluetooth cassettes, like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I3YLHAC

I don't have personal experience with them, but I've heard good things about them.

This one has Bluetooth

I guess nobody here has heard of these, but Bluetooth cassette adapters do exist.

what about this though? best of both worlds?

It has a cassette player right? That's all you need for playing your music really. Just get one of those adapters on Amazon for $5 or you can be fancy and get this:

https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC/

I found this, not sure if this helps you out.

Hey, you know bluetooth tape adpaters exist.

Bonjour,

QUESTION :

Si quelqu'un avait ce modèle de boombox :

https://www.cnet.com/products/jvc-rc-qn1-boombox-cd/specs/

https://cnet1.cbsistatic.com/img/HZl-x_3LYIkUYTjdLVp8NoMxGpA=/770x433/2010/05/07/686a57d0-5fa6-407e-991b-5ff12483abfb/686a57d0-5fa6-407e-991b-5ff12483abfb.jpg

Et qu'il voulait le modifier pour ajouter le bluetooth, comment ce quelqu'un devrait s'y prendre ?

C'est une vieille boombox que j'ai, que j'utilise tous les jours pour la radio, parfois pour les cd, jamais pour les cassettes,

A l'arrière, une sortie jack, pour écouter au casque, mais pas d'entrée jack, sans quoi j'aurai mis un adaptateur jack bluetooth et c'est fini...


L'idée ce serait : modifier l'entrée cassette pour lire en bluetooth, or : les cassettes bluetooth existent : https://www.amazon.fr/Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth-R%C3%A9cepteur-rechargeable/dp/B00I3YLHAC

Mais elles ont une batterie de quelques heures à peine... Vous voyez un moyen pour que je puisse la brancher sur le poste directement, sinon je devrai passer un cable quelque part...

Ou une autre solution ?


Sachant que je suis pas trop doué niveau manuel :p

Peut être des fablabs ou d'autres trucs pourraient m'aider ?

Just something to consider...Not necessarily this one, but you get the idea

https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC

They make bluetooth tape adapters: https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC

How about a cassette adapter with bluetooth built in for $25?

With these two you wouldnt even need the aux input devic you linked too.

but it has a battery that you would have to keep charged.

Not that this super helps, but in case you or someone reading this doesn't know: you can get bluetooth cassette adapters for 20 bucks.

https://amazon.com/dp/B00I3YLHAC

See the CD's I don't get......I just load all my music on my phone (I don't do services like Spotify, etc) and play it through the car stereo. Might have to get a adapter to make it work but heck they have adapters to turn a tape deck into a bluetooth receiver.

https://smile.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC

​

Or when I had a car with only a CD deck I was able to get a FM transmitter wired to the antenna.

Have you thought of a Bluetooth tape?
