Otherwise, I'd just solder the JBus connector but make sure your test signal is reliable! I managed to break the radio and JBus chip somehow so had to do this. I also had to burn a silent audio CD from to keep CD selected as input. I soldered straight to the chip, although you could maybe filter the input from stray noise somehow. I selected pins 5 and 6 for the left and right channel respectively and pin 15 for signal ground. There is a volume control chip that takes a signal from say a headphone out jack of a phone. So I found a direct way close to the amp chip. The correct row of 3 pins was next to the square notch in the outer ring of the connector. But when I tested the correct row, my audio source itself was faulty and thus a merry jig of everything going wrong ensued. There is a YouTube video out there but it was the wrong row of pins for my model. I tried soldering to the JBus connector instead of using a KS-U58 accessory.

I can measure the 4.4V on E.volume input, so direct connection not sound good to my phone jack(can it damage my phone?)ĭoes anybody knows, where should i connect it without to damage the input source? Before the CD low pass filter? With capacitor to block the DC voltage? Thanks. In case of other order, it not works, signal not go through to E.VOLUME. I connected the signals after the R595 and R585 resistors, and it works great.īut one problem: first i had to connect the jack to the phone, start the music, and connect the aux to the resistors (i am using a switch now)
CD TO AUX CABLE ZIP
I am using a Sansa Clip Zip player and it always had to be at maximum volume and the car’s amp had to have the volume turned up quite high to get a satisfactory output. Basically then, the mp3 player is acting as the CD changer. I installed an aftermarket device behind the dash which interfaces with the factory head unit through in input that was originally designed to interface with a 6-CD changer that was an option. I have a 2002 Corvette, which has no factory installed external input to the radio/CD player. I have installed it in my application and it works as advertised.

Now I can experience my music instead of just listening to it! Great Product and highly recommended. I was happy just to be listening to my own music and not advertising on the radio. I knew about the impedance mismatch and have been living with it for years. So very happy I found your wonderful product! My stereo now sounds like it should. I received my G-Rod today and immediately put it to the test. I know most of the newer cars have this feature built in now, but I am sure there are a lot of people who would still want your product. I know your device is exactly what I am looking for. Was happy enough not to have to listen to radio and ads, but have really missed having good audio quality. I installed an adapter to allow me to connect my Mp3 player to the car stereo, but as you know there is a mismatch of signal level.


I drive a 2004 Touareg which I have had since October 2003 the year they were released.
CD TO AUX CABLE PORTABLE
Without this inline preamplifier you will have an impedance mismatch greatly reducing the quality of sound from your portable device.īelow are actual customer responses who used the G-ROD inline cable preamplifier in their cars. The quality of sound is only as good as the weakest link. I attached a photo of a way to connect power to the In Line Amp to keep it hidden in Dash.ĭisconnecting the CD Changer in your car you don’t use any more and connecting you phone through the G-ROD cable amp will give you CD quality sound from your phone or mp3 player.
CD TO AUX CABLE INSTALL
To really complete the system, install the G-ROD audio cable microAmp.
