Creative Zen and Car Stereo

Teacherman

I'm thinking of buying a creative zen as the kids I teach seem to think it's the best to get. However, I mainly play music on my CD player in my car. Once I get the Creative zen-whats the best way to play it on car stereo?

I drive across M50 every day so would it be problematic to get an Fm transmitter that broadcasts onto stereo? What's the quality like?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would say that a FM transmitter is your only option.

A ZEN, for all it's virtues, is not an in-car entertainment solution. Anything you add on will be a compromise over quality.

ive been using a fm modulator for ages, hooked it up all nicely in the car and ppwered by the car batt with wires and what not tucked away works fine, just find a nice frequency and its aok, i think i use 95.0mHz works fine.

u can hook one up



gota take the radio out and do some rewiring, it needs to be wired inbetween the radio and the antenna or something, cant remember... or go wireless which is easier and handier...






either will do, i just saved a preset on the radio and modulator for it too so easy to use... they sue 2 AAA batts to power them on there own

FM transmitters are nothing but trouble in my opinion. you'll fiddle with it more than you'll enjoy it. i used to use my zen with a sony radio that had an aux port and the quality was 100%. just make sure you get a quality 3.5 to 3.5 stereo cable.
