These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

i am taking about this kit: http://www.harmankardon.com/drive-1/ setup with wired FM transmitter. curious if it works at all and if so - how well? might do this since getting iPod for MOST is nothing but empty promises.

POST 2Original post

looks pretty good, although ugly on your dash...

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

i am sure the display can be mounted where CD storage is, keeping it low (with the control sitting inside the ashtray. my question is, has anybody done it and how well does it work.

POST 4Original post

I was at circuit city last week getting an integration IPOD module installed on my Denali. I was talking about the HK with the techs they Highly recommend the unit. The wired FM modulator takes over the FM signals when you have the IPOD on. They had a demo unit in the show room. It is very similar to the IPOD interface. the screen was smaller then I was anticipating from pictures I had looked at on the web. Which is nice. It could fit in the glove box or the center console no problem. There is also a remote that is also wired. the remote has a spinning **** with a center button. Very easy to navigate. The other option you have is to get a wired modulator ebay: "Wired FM Modulator" you will also need the RCA to headphone cable. This would eliminate the need for the HK screen and remote. All of the controls would be on your IPOD. Unless you would like a larger screen and remote then the HK unit is for you. It does work on MOST cars since it taps into any car with an antenna cable. BTW the sound quaility was very good. The wireless FM modulators are junk.

POST 5Original post

I really don't like the way the FM modulator sounds, it's just awful.

POST 6Original post

Are you speaking of wired or wireless. I am pretty picky about sounds too and the HK product sounded really good. Wireless is unbearable.

POST 7Original post

I'll have to check it out. I know my Sirius radio uses FM Modulation and it's practically unlistenable.

POST 8Original post

The Cayenne forum moderator (re: adult day care provider) has had a hardwired FM modulator installed (along with a DIY) for a while. Works much better than FM wireless, but FM hardwired still suffers from reduced signal/noise ratio (or dynamic range if you prefer) due to the nature of FM tuners when compared to line level/analog AUX IN. Some people claim to hear it, some don't. Currently, there are no aftermarket iPod adapters for MOST....although DensionUSA has been promising an adapter "anyday now" since first showing it January 2005.

POST 9Original post

I have a wired FM modulator installed in my 2003 C4 Cab. Although not an audiophile, I do like quality sound, and I like my music pretty loud. The iPod playback through the wired FM modulator is equivalent to the sound quality of a strong FM station. I have a cassette adapter in my Tahoe, which sounds slightly better, but neither is CD quality. On balance, I'm pleased with the wired FM modulator sound quality, which will have to do until someone can decode the MOST issues. I'm not holding my breath.
