psp --> car (question)

[%chrono trigger%]

Ok ive seen a device that lets you hook up your ipod with your car and play it, so my question is there something like this for the psp?

[SpiderJames]

yea, you can buy this device that you put in your cassette tape slot and you put the cable into the headphone jack and it will play anything you do on your psp through the car speakers. so music.

[Soulphalanx]

there's also an FM transmitter for the PSP
made by Griffin or something like that, but its expensive

[SpiderJames]

that cassette tape thing cost me 10$ at bestbuy, I dont know what its called though, its made by sony.

Vtech FM modulator(at any WALMART or car audio department). it lets you play anything (w/headphone jack) including PSP thru your Radio. I got mine back when PSP 1st come out and i helped a few ppl since then to buy it too. I got a PSP windshield holder and FM modulator i like to play all my music all the time and the visual player gets some looks from ppl too.
30$ or more depending on the model

i'm sorry but FM transmitters suck. invest in a head unit (deck or whatever you want to call it) that has a line in and buy a mini to mini jack cable for optimal audio quality.

wow thnx talle that really helped, and lol just looked and i dont have a casseste player .

[TallE]

not true, the more expensive modulator the less static interference with radio stations. but modulator in an inexpensive route. and not everyone has a tape deck. alot of ppl have CD's or just radio.

[soundboy]

it's not the static i'm worried about, but the audio quality decreases via FM waves, especially at high volumes. I listen to my music really loud in my car and I usually have to resort to burning CDs because I'm too cheap to get a GOOD FM Transmitter. Even still, a GOOD head unit will improve overall sound quality in your car, so if you're a real audiophile go for the head unit

Most reputable aftermarket head units are better than stock audio systems in cars, though, if you feel adventurous, and there's an AUX button on your current head unit, you might have a set of RCA audio plugs that aren't in use. In that case, you could buy an RCA audio to mini jack plug and feed it out thru the dash and plug in your PSP there. That's what I plan to do when I upgrade my car audio system... when that will actually take place... *shrug* lol

If your car has a microphone input like mine, you can just get a wire with both sides male mini stereo jacks, those work fine for me.

I thought the FM transmitter was illegal..

Unlicensed radio broadcasting.

then get the FCC to arse rape Wal-mart if its illegal [/joke]

But DO NOT GET THE TRANSMITTER,I have one,it sucks,and it could pick up interference from a lot of outside sources

if you wanna hook up your PSP to your car,you should really invest in a new stereo (if you have a car,you prolly have a job to afford this,but if you dont have a job,you dont deserve it anyway you lazy *******).

I mounted mine with a dock I got at gamestop,Gorilla Glued it to my cub holder (lost a cup holder,gained a PSP,lol)



hid the wires behind the plastic trim around my stereo/air controls.

1 important note,and I strees this when I say,that if you hook up the PSP to your stereo,and use a car charger at the same time,theres a good chance that you'll hear ground noise,to fix this problem,you need to get a 'Ground Loop Isolator' (20 bucks from walmart I think,where the other car stereo stuff is),and put it between the stereo and the input cable.
