CD Changer

[Cainer]

Thought i saw a thread on this yesterday but cant find it now.

Where can i get a CD Changer From and What is the cheapest ?
do you simply plug in to the lead in the boot and that is it or do you have to wire more things in?
Thanks
Morgan.

what car do you have i.e cupra? if its a cupra behind the left handf side trim in your boot is a plug so you can plug a vw/seat cd changer straight in.

You can buy a vw 6 disc cd changer cheap off ebay.

1.4 Ibiza vibe

i have located the plug, would skoda and audi 1s work too seeing as there pretty much the same company?

 

[MIkey kc]

yeah they will do

 

[Cainer]

thanks
will i need a bus lead to connect them, just asking because i have seen them advertised on ebay.

if its the correct type of cd changer, it should simply plug in. one main connector and two phonos if i'm not mistaken..

 

[Cainer]

does anybody know if standard VW Seat etc cd changers will play coppied and mp3 cds?

 

[Cupra Gsy]

not to sure if this is correct but i think there are 2 different connectors so you gotta get the right cd changer to fit that cable

 

[cus]

mine played copied cds but not mp3's

wma format is fine
which are basically real cd`s

if you download on the internet, jus change the files from mp3 to wma using a file converter.

the programme can be got at download.com

EASY

so your saying razor 1.4 that if i put wma files on a cd the same way i would for an mp3 cd it will work ??

if you get a non genuine changer u will need some sort of adaptation, like with my sony changer i have a connects 2 adapter which is good becasue you can buy different adapters for the little box and if you fancy a change you can unplug the changer and plug in an mp3 player providing you buy the add on part

so your saying razor 1.4 that if i put wma files on a cd the same way i would for an mp3 cd it will work ??

It certainly will yes indeedy

 

[markmeus]

Really??? Cos you can fit a hell of a lot more wma's on a cd than normal audio tracks.

Are you sure windows media player is not just converting them to normal audio cd format!

 

[Dan1.6]

i always thought that the wma was windows media audio files because itunes alters them converting to them a diffrent type of file because itunes can't play wma . i have been told though that you can get better quality sound through a cd rather than a mp3 player though

 

[Razor]

no definitly
wma has nothing to do with windows media player

wma is just a name such as mp3

yes it will work fine...
the standard cd changers you would get on 01 ibiza was not programmed to read mp3

What dannaz1.4 says is true. wma stands for windows media audio file (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Media_Audio). I can play CD-R disks on mine but not CD-RW disks, though I don't use my changer anymore as i have an x-car link so I just use my iPod.

 

[chumsofmanutd]

Yea, wma is windows audio format!

 

[Dan1.6]
