Here are some more information for Cassette Deck:
If you drive a lot and love to listen to music in your car, then you must have thought of hooking up the iPhone to your car stereo.
The problem is, doing this can be difficult. Unfortunately, There are no car stereo manufacturers which have come up with an all-in-one device capable of seamlessly hooking up your iPhone to the car.
In this article, we'll take a look at some options we have for hooking up your iPhone to the car.
1. Overview
As mentioned, there are no integrated solutions for connecting the iPhone to the car stereo. As a result, we'll need to look at various component solutions. These are listed below.
2. Option 1 - Budget Solution
Here we need a car mount, car charger, FM transmitter and headphones. In this approach, we first mount the iPhone onto the car.
Then we hook up the iPhone to a car charging device to keep it full of juice. We also hook up a FM transmitter which broadcasts audio from the iPhone to a specified FM radio channel on your car stereo.
Finally, plug in your iPhone headphones and you'll be able to listen any incoming phone calls. The problem with this approach is that the sound quality coming out of the FM transmitter may be sub-optimal.
3. Option 2 - Cassette Tape Deck Solution
The second option is to use a cassette tape adaptor. As before, we mount the iPhone into the car. Now In the market, there are cassette adapters which connect to the iPhone headphone jack. We hook up the iPhone in this manner, and any music output from the iPhone can be heard through the cassette tape. A good car cassette adaptor I'd recommend is the Philips PH2050W which goes for under $15.
Now, we have a little problem -the cassette adaptor uses the iPhone headset port for connecting to the iPhone speaker. So how do you receive any incoming calls on the iPhone?
The answer lies in a Bluetooth headset. Invest in one of these and you'll be able to listen to iPhone music through the cassette adaptor and yet still receive calls using the Bluetooth headset.
And for your info, the audio quality from the cassette adapter is far superior and consistent compared to that from the FM transmitter.
4. Option 3 - The Most Integrated Solution
Now, there's a 3rd option we can look at that is optimal compared to the previous two.
One of the better car integration products in the market for the iPhone is the Bluetrek / Contour Design SurfaceSound Compact. This device adds a Bluetooth 2.0 microphone and flat panel NXT speaker combination to your car visor.
So what happens is that when you get into your car, switch on the SurfaceSound Compact and your iPhone and the two will seamlessly connect.
Receiving and dialling phone calls is done through Bluetooth - so no messy wires there. For music, again, there is no wired connection as the SurfaceSound Compact will automatically stream music to your car stereo. The only cable you have is one for charging the iPhone.
Conclusion
So on the whole, I'd say that in terms of car integration, the iPhone as a phone and music device in the car has not really come of age yet. I'm still waiting for a good manufacturer to design a seamless device which can hook up the iPhone (or iPod or even the iPad) to your car with utmost simplicity.
Most of the products I've seen on the market (with the exception of the SurfaceSound Compact) are still considered sub-optimal solutions which require a lot of "manual" cable integration. Let's watch this space and hope for better products in the future!

Audio Book Listening Has Many Benefits
It used to be that they were called "books on tape" and people would get a cassette deck installed in their car just to listen to them on their commutes. Today, they are better known as audio book volumes, but they still deliver a great deal of information and entertainment as well. Audio books are enjoyed by people of all walks of life, young and old, and they can turn a potentially dry and boring time in a vehicle into an opportunity to learn and grow.
One of the best benefits of a book in audio format is that is can be listened to at anyplace and anytime. It is a favorite companion for people while they are traveling, commuting, exercising, shopping, working in the garden, or even dusting and vacuuming the house. Using headphones with your favorite audio book player allows you to listen and absorb the information no matter what might be going on around you.
Even when you are in a situation that is quiet and are able to enjoy a good audio book, there are still advantages to using your headphones. You can often improve your retention and comprehension of the material when you use headphones because they help reduce distractions from other noises and help the listener focus better. Also, some people learn better by hearing and some people learn best when they can read and hear at the same time.
There are a number of different books in audio format these days that people can choose from. There are audio books on CD, on audio cassette and also as MP3s and any standard CD player, cassette recorder, or MP3 player that you might use to listen to music can function as an audiobook player as well.
If you buy a CD audiobook to play in the CD player in your car, then you can also make that same book into an MP3 that can be used on your digital music player, such as an iPod, if you have one. This makes it even more convenient to listen wherever you are and whatever you might be doing.
But, if your car is also equipped with an MP3 player, or with a connection that you can use to make use of your MP3 player in your vehicle, then the best way to buy an audio tome is online. This is because you can download audio books online and this is not only much faster than ordering a cassette or CD audiobook, but it is less expensive as well.
If the publishers of audio books don't have to burn the recording onto a CD or copy it onto a cassette, then they save time and money, and they can pass on these savings when you buy an MP3 audiobook. On top of that, you won't have to pay for shipping and handling and you can download your new audio book within minutes.
There is a great selection of books available every month, no matter which audio book format suits you best. If you can find printed materials that cover a certain topic, then you will no doubt be able to find audio versions of at least some of those books. It should be noted, though, that the audio cassette books are becoming harder to find.

What is the problem with a cassette deck heads are spinning round when you open the door .I switched off?
the power then put in the cassette and it worked ,is it a mechanical problem or a circuitry problem
thanks
it is a sony
What do you mean by "the heads", because cassette heads don't normally spin round unless the deck has an auto reverse mechanism.
Whatever it is, it's almost certainly a mechanical issue - a faulty motor switch or something like that.
