I have just bought a "Shintaro USB MP3"
player, which plugs in to the car's cigarette-lighter socket. I got it working by downloading some of my MP3 files on to a flash drive, which I plugged in to the unit. The quality of the sound is faint and terrible, and I wonder if anyone has had experience with this unit, and if there is a work-around. If not, is there a high-quality alternative available? Peter |

It's very unlikely to be on sale with a design fault like this so the unit is either broken or it's finger trouble. How are you using it? Connected to something else or via headphones? -- *The statement below is true. Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |

If it's got to be one that you listen to via your car radio tuner, then using a normal player with a transmitter that you can position near the car radio aerial may be better. Check the tuning on your radio if you haven't already, & try other channels on the mp3 player. Otherwise, if you've a cassette player in your car, a normal mp3 player & a cassette adaptor is usually the best way to go. -- Tciao for Now! John. |

According to the msaker's website, it is a mp3 player that transmits the audio on the FM band, with 14 channels in the broadcast FM band available for transmission. That's why I mentioned tuners. Do check before opening mouth, there's a good chap. It makes you look so silly otherwise. -- Tciao for Now! John. |

According to the msaker's website, it is a mp3 player that transmits the audio on the FM band, with 14 channels in the broadcast FM band available for transmission. That's why I mentioned tuners. Another check would be to try using it with a portable FM radio near the unit. Do check your facts before "having a go", there's a good chap.
