Tape deck occasionaly tries to auto-reverse cassette adapter
I just bought a cassette adapter to be able to play my MP3 player in
my not-so-new 1995 Mitsubishi Mirage. The sound comes out great, but every so often, cassette deck tries to auto-reverse the adapter and sound stops for a second. There is no consistency as to when the deck tries to auto-reverse, sometime it is 30 seconds before it does that or sometime is 2 seconds. Is there a way to cure deck's tendency to auto-reverse? Is there something I can change with adapter? The regular cassettes play fine, so I think tape deck is fine. TIA P Adhia |

Tape deck occasionaly tries to auto-reverse cassette adapter
You need an adapter that is compatible with an auto-reverse deck. The
cheaper adapters don't have the rollers or whatever in them to make the deck think the wheels are still turning in the tape. When the wheels stop turning, it's time to reverse the tape. Some decks don't mind the cheaper ones, but others do. It just depends on the deck. The auto-reverse compatible ones are about twice as expensive as the other, around $15 as I recall. jp "P Adhia" wrote in message m...
