Car Speakers

Has anyone developed an Ipod/Iphone speaker with good sound that can attach to my car's dashboard. The FM transmitters have lousy sound quality. I don't need it to be headbanging loud, just descent.

What kind of a stereo do you have?
Is there a line-in jack or tape player?
If not, the only option is the FM transmitter. Otherwise, you'll want to look into replacing the stereo.

  • Iphone 5c incoming calls on bluetooth car speakers not by default

    OK i have a vw jetta 2012, used to have incoming calls answered on bluetooth by default.
    Nowdays, since I have iPhone 5c, incoming calls, sound on speakers, but as soon as I answered, sound goes back to phone, then I need to change to vw phone by hand to hear conversation on the car speakers. Well tha's not safe, neither hands free calls, need help

    We had the problem with our new iPhone 5 using i.o.s.6.0.1.  So we updated to 6.0.2 and the problem continues. Sure worked great with the iPhone 4s though. 
    Makes me think we shouldn't have moved to the iPhone 5.

  • I purchased an itrip Auto Pilot and require an app to use it according to my device I was setting up to play music in my car speakers.  I cannot find an app for this in the itunes store.  Help

    I purchased an ITrip Auto Pilot and when attempting to use it to play music from my Iphone through my car speakers, I was promptedd to get an app from the itunes store to enable it to work.  I went to the itunes store and searched for an app and could not find one.  Can anyone tell me the app I need and where to get it for this itrip auto pilot made by Griffin?  It is supposedd to enable my iphone and ipod to play on my FM radio in my car.

    You should go to the web site for the iTrip product and see what app it is, I'll bet there's a link there that will take you right to the app.  Don't worry, as you get more stuff it'll be easier to figure it all out, eventually it'll be plain old common sense that solves these types of issues for you

  • Listen to touch thru car speakers with 1/8" audio cable

    I had a 1st gen touch that I could connect to my car with a 1/8" audio cable. It allowed me to listen to my touch through my car speakers. I got a 3rd gen 32 GB touch and it doesn't work with the same cable. When I plug it in, the sound comes out of the touch's speakers. Is there a special 1/8" audio cable that I can buy that will allow my new touch to play through my car's speakers? Thanks!

    I have a similar problem - I have a Logic 3 adapter that connects to the dock adapter and a 3.5mm plug on the other end to a jack in the car. Worked like a charm with an iPod but doesn't work with the iTouch. Also noted that when attached to a Bose sound dock - no charging but the music works. There must be something different in the design. Tried Bluetooth also but not able to connect it to the audio system (Blackberry works fine).

  • I plug my 4S into a transmitter to listen through my car speakers. The phone gets hot, is this normal?

    I used a radio transmitter connected to my 4S to listen to music through my car speakers, but the phone gets hot.  Is this  normal?

    Yes it is. It is usual for your phone to get hot (not to the point where it burns, but noticably warmer) whenever it's charging, playing music, or using an app that takes a lot of power (like navigation). Especially in a car, where the ambient temperature can get pretty hot.
    As long as it doesn't hurt to hold your phone or the phone doesn't give you a temperature warning then it's normal.

  • Itouch not sending audio to car speakers

    I recently added an AUX cable to my Alpine car stereo, but my ipod touch will not send audio to the car speakers.  When its plugged in to the cable it just plays through the built in speaker on the ipod.  The cable is the older 12v type, so I understand it will not charge the ipod, but I would expect it to send the audio signal???  I also tried a older 30Gb ipod video model and it plays just fine, so I doubt its a bad cable.  I was going to buy the 12v to 5v converter to support charging for the ipod touch, but I am not sure that will fix the audio problem... 
    Any feedback would be appreciated!!!

    Sometimes the manufacturer of cables are not uptodate with the many iPod models.
    You have to check different supplier.
    I have a Skoda Octavia with a Radio Navigation system which is the exact copy of VW or Audi.
    The iPhone cable of Skoda did not worked with the iPhone 4 and I am using an Audi cable.
    Nobody at Skoda/Audi have a serious explanation.

  • Hook iPod to car speakers.

    I've never done this before, but my friend is trying to get his iPod hooked up to his car speakers. If it helps, the car in question is a 2006 Toyota Corolla LE. There's a multi-disc CD player.
    ~ Thanks in advance.

    get an iPod car player. They are usually a little on the pricey side...i saw one for $40.00 at Lowe's here in Texas, but what you do is hook it to your car's cigarette lighter. Once it is powered up, plug in iPod and it will transmit on a radio frequency (the better, more expensive ones transmit on several optional frequencies to prevent interference by local radio stations) Simply tune your car's radio to the frequency and it will play. Then you can blast it with speakers.

  • IPod Nano to Car Speakers

    I have a white 2 GB iPod Nano 1st Generation and I want to be able to play my iPod through my car speakers. I already have the USB cable and the car charger, can i just plug the cable & the charger into my car and then turn off my radio and press play...or do i need to by one of those FM Radio iPod converters for a car in order for me to play my iPod in my car?

    Either that or an expensive retrofit. My last car had a lousy radio so I bought a Sony that had an aux port. There are also some really expensive models that have iPod ports. Another option for some cars is an expensive device that adds an auxilliary input to your factory radio but there can be downsides. For me I have a choice of losing my XM radio or losing audible warnings. And then there's the FM transmitters. I bought a Kensington digital and am mostly happy with it. I say mostly because in some areas there is no free frequency so the iPod is unusable.

  • Can i play my phone calls over my car speakers?

    For some reason after installing my bluetooth I can hear my game sounds over my car stereo speakers. I've always wanted to be able to hear my phone calls over my speakers. Does anyone know if I can do this and if so, how do you set it up? Thanks.

    Sure, if your car has the right features ...
    My (and a lot of other) car(s), have a bluetooth pairing capability that includes a microphone in the car (ceiling).
    So I can play music through the car speakers, and if a phone call comes in, the music will stop (iPhone feature) and once I answer the call (which I can do from pushbuttons on the steering wheel), I can talk (through the car's microphone) and hear (through the car's speakers).
    Check out if your car is set up for this.

    Something is interfering with the signal. Try turning any devices with WiFi that are with you off.

    How do I get my ipod touch 5th generation to always use my car speakers when I plug it into the USB port?

    If the problem occurs after you restore it to factory defaults/new iPod then it is likely a hardware problem.  I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Since I upgraded to IOS8, iphone has changed the way it calls via car bluetooth.  Before (IOS8) once I hit 'call' it was transfer to car speakers and i would hear dial tone until answer.  Now, call will only transfer to speakers once call is answered

    Since I upgraded to IOS8, iphone has changed the way it calls via car bluetooth.  Before (IOS8) once I hit 'call' it was transfer to car speakers and i would hear dial tone until answer.  Now, call will only transfer to speakers once call is answered.  This is very incovenient as I never know if my call is going through, and sometimes when call isn't answered immediately I have to look at my phone to cancel the call.  Is there a new setting I am missing?

    Sometimes you turn off your Bluetooth and then back on and it doesn't reconnect with your phone unless you go into the menu. Either way doesn't help much if someone calls you while you're driving and you realize your iPhone is stuck on headphone input.

  • How to route phonecalls through the car speakers?

    Hi
    Just bought iCarkit/Allkit FM transmitter/handsfree holder for Iphone.
    I have a Iphone 3GS 16 gb.
    I've managed to get the ipod music thru the car speakers BUT not phonecalls.
    Could anyone please help me?
    Best regards
    Per from Norway

    I played with it yesterday. The phone directs sound back out of the phone's speak when it is connected to the FM transmitter via the charging cable, but if you use the audio jack connector then voice will come out of the car stereo and the phone's microphone is sensitive enough for this to work. It is a bit of a pain though so I won't bother with this.
    I didn't get any instructions with my unit I can not figure out how to set the presets. To be honest at the moment I am just using it as a holder for the phone as the beeping was driving me crazy. When the unit was plugged into my phone it seems to stop and start charging every few seconds causing it to keep going back to the battery indicator if left at the home screen - I thought this was probably not good for the phone.
