Ipod + Bose = CURE

Well, I finally got impatient. Since yes my CD-Rs do play on my Bose, it just sometimes still takes to long to get going. It's just very tripY when the Bose play CD-R music and sometimes it is perfect,. So I finally said screw it. I got a 4gig mini Ipod w/ all accessories from a someone that wanted to sell it. I got the Ipod, Belkin Ipod holder that goes into a cup holder, 5 Ipod socks and a FM modulator all for 160.00.

- I was going to get a new CD player, but I really have no complaints about the sound coming out of the bose, minus the SUB is weak and I like the steering control useage. So I will just add a RCA converter to the sub-wires and install a seperate AMP w/ a 12" woofer.

I have the Monster Cable FM Modulator/Transmitter, it`s sounds a lot clearer than the iTrip cause it isn`t wireless, it plugs right into your 12V.

With the iTrip, someone has told me if you plug the unit into the ciggarette lighter to charge it, the hissing sound goes away making it a lot clearer. I think its prolly a grounding issue of some sort, which is why the previous user stated that the Monster one worked well.
