Hey: question regarding MP3 player. The Honda 2007 LX that I bought has an MP3 input jack. My question is, Can I use either a flash drive or hardrive type MP3 player. i read somewhere, maybe on Cnet that it needs to be hardrive based. Also do I just plug in the MP3 and my audio system recognizes it ? thanks in advance.

kork13, what you may be hearing is the mp3 encoding if done at a low quality compression. I use my mp3 player daily, and even with classical music and the car not moving, the quality is excellent. but they are ripped at the highest possible setting (not vbr) which does eat up space in the player. however, some of my "borrowed" files are a bit flakey in quality and don't sound as good. I've used a disk-based player (Creative Zen) as well as IPod varieties with equally excellent results. You many need to turn down the volume on the player as some players can overdrive and distort their output. My Creative Zen seems to sound best at about 70-80 of max volume (as shown on the player). and yes, you can use any audio source. A computer's audio/headphone output, a TV, whatever. Heck, even an ancient cassette player's headphone jack will let you listen to those wonderful tapes in all their stretched and distorted glory..... enjoy! |

the Zen player is just a player, it comes with no strings like membership. I download from itunes, Walmart, Target, Sony, ....anyplace. no memberships whatsoever. And unlike Apple products, you don't have to use i-tunes. |

Replying to: mcaimless (Sep 01, 2007 10:01 am) The people over at 8thcivic.com could confirm that for sure, since they are the experts. If it does have an aux jack it should be right under the power outlet on the dash. All you would need is a cable from Radio Shack or Wal-Mart to plug it in. And no, you would not be able to control the songs through the car, you'd have to control everything from the IPOD. Honda had an Ilink they were selling which would allow one to do this. However, it had problems so they discontinued it.
