Gold Member Username: JohnfiacA-ToWn, Kingkong ain... I got Chuck ... Post Number: 3274 Registered: Mar-06 | Do They make FM MODULATORS with a USB playing device? I find USB FM TRANSMITTER's but i dont want the SQ loss from it, so i would rather hard wire it into my antenna rather then broadcasting a new signal myself. Has anyone ever looked for them or found any? http://www.roadmasterusa.com/fmmod_vr3.php This is the FM TRANSMITTER (it transmitts the signal like a radio station would) i need a Modulator (it plugs directly into the antenna) but alot of the stores dont realize they are posting it wrong calling it a Modulator when its a Transmitter...... anyone? i really want to get my USB support onto this stock HU. |

But you would need some device to play the music from the USB drive, and then connect it to an FM modulator with the headphone jack cord. And you're not going to find that since that device would basically be an MP3 player using a USB drive as memory. You could do what you are wanting with a SD card MP3 player though. You would just be using SD cards as memory instead of a USB dive. Is there a problem with that and did I get what you meant there? |

Post Number: 3276 Registered: Mar-06 | What i was hoping to find would be somthing like the FM modulator along with a seperate box that connects to the inputs (this box would have playback support and wire with a usb jack to mount it somwhere) and a remote or IR extender to control it) All i need is USB support. I also have a 2GB sony Pro DUo 2 card... along with a adapter. but either will work, show me a link  i have a feeling once the system is installed my bass is going to shake the cd again and make it skip... not none of my aftermarket HU's could ever even support the bass. |

Also you said you didn't want to lose quality...... are you aware that you will lose a tremendous amount of quality from the FM modulator? The SQ loss of the MP3 player would be minimal by comparison. |
