Ipod though Auxillary port?
Does anyone know how to make my ipod sound decent while being played through my cars auxillary port? I have a Belkin cable I just bought and it doesn't sound all that great..very muffled. I had the Harmon/Kardon adapter that played through the fm transmitter in my last car and I didn't like that either. Any suggestions?

Most of the audio problems experienced through AUX in ports are due to volume differences.
Turn your stereo on and insert a CD. Turn the volume up to your normal listening level. Now switch it over to the AUX mode and play your iPod. Turn the volume up or down on the iPod until there is no distortion. Now use the Radio volume control for further adjustment.
If your iPod has built in EQ settings, try adjusting them as well. An auxillary input is alot more sensitive than a pair of headphones, and it is easy to overload (distort) the input.

I agree with cplkittle, but if your I-Pod does have an EQ, I'd suggest setting it to FLAT, playing a CD at a reasonable level for a reference, then switching to the I-Pod and adjusting the gain on the I-Pod to try and achieve a matching volume to the CD.
