Teac SRL50 DAB C Clock Radio

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Personal Cassette Players
from: TEAC


It does look good and with the TEAC name that's why I bought it. The most annoying thing and why I sent the first one back was a loud (when you trying to sleep with it next to you) feedback hum when on standby. When the unit is switched on this increases and at low listening levels is very noticeable. The second one arrived and was identical. Obviously a design fault. Switching between channels is slow and clunky why not a dial instead of clicking up and down. Losing the channel very annoying especially as I have to turn it off to get to sleep each night. On the plus it does sound good at loader volumes.

Griffin 9503-SDK30 SmartDeck - Intelligent Cassette Adapter for iPod

Having purchased a cheap, good sounding and very efficient cassette adapter for approx £4 i plumped for an expensive model, which was dissapointing. The device continually caused my i-pod to pause, restart and flip the cassette for/back with a mind on it's own. This was in a VW golf 02 gt tdi.

Griffin Technology SmartDeck Cassette Adapter for iPod

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Personal Cassette Players
from: Griffin Technology


The sales blurb for this item says that it allows an Ipod to be controlled directly from car stereo controls.

It didn't work for me. Just made really unhealthy sounding noises in the tape deck.

In addition to this, the sound output was ridiculously low (even with volume turned up full).

Would definatley not recommend.

Back to the itrip.....

The first review nailed the problem for me,it's the clear plastic covering on the silver tape head which in my opinion seems to be causing all the issues.So take it off and happy motoring.
