my cd-changer has an fm transmitter and it too requires higher-than-average volume levels.

depending on what area 88.5 MHz is clear.

i have the monster icarplay wireless and it works pretty well. it also has to be turned up louder than usual. i have the Neo iOn SP on order, so i'm looking forward to getting it. i can't wait to be able to use my steering wheel controls for the ipod.
