Product Description:
This Sony CPA-9C connects your portable MD or CD player to your car stereo, through the car's in-dash cassette player. It's ideal for use with Sony MiniDisc and Discman CD players. CPA-9C's silent mechanism reduces mechanical noise on the road. And the self-adjusting spring-loaded head maintains optimum contact with your cassette deck's tape head.
Amazon.com Product Description:
The Sony CPA-9C cassette adaptor allows you to connect your minidisc or CD player to a vehicle cassette player. While this Sony product works best with Sony CD and MD players, the adaptor will operate with non-Sony products as well. There are a couple of key features to this adaptor which make it a fine choice. The first notable feature is the spring-loaded head. The head will automatically adjust itself to your vehicle's cassette deck, ensuring that the two heads have optimum contact and transfer the best possible sound. The second key feature is the silent mechanism. A silent mechanism yields less operational noise and a better quality MD or CD sound. This adaptor works with all cassette players which require you to insert the tape opening facing the side. The mini-plug inserts into a portable CD or MD headphone jack. The cassette adaptor is a cheap way to make your vehicle CD and MD operational.

- It works!
It works fine and does what it's supposed to do. It replaces an iRiver Car Audio Talent Pack, which was not putting out a L signal into my car radio.

- horrible sound reproduction
stay away from this solution.
The sound reproduction is horrible...and I have a bose stereo in my car.
It's just not the same, however, it does work and if you don't care about the quality of sound, this may be worth it.
Rating: - Works great!
Works awesome! I previously purchased a cheap Dynex tape adapter from Best Buy and was seriously dissapointed with it (quiet, lots of static)... I returned it and purchased this one from Amazon and it is much much better!
Rating: - So far, so good
After trying a generic tape adapter model and having it not work, I tried this Sony instead.So far, it is working well.I have a Bose cd/tape player with auto reverse and from most of the reviews I have read, many adapters have trouble with auto reverse.Not so with this Sony model.I was surprised that the Sony actually worked.The adapter runs quietly with a barely discernable hiss.It doesn't sound quite as good as a cd, but it sounds far better than an fm transmitter.
Rating: - remember to replace your cassette adapter every few years
The sound quality of my previous Sony cassette adapter was slowly degrading over time. I couldn't tell if the adapter was at fault or my car stereo, so I replaced the less expensive component - the adapter. Sounds quality from my iPod is once again excellent.
