Car in-dash audio radio cassette player idea ?

Post by JUBOO120MG »

Got myself an old car radio audio in dash player. The thing is I can't think of a single idea on what to do with it doh .. Have anyone here had any experience of circuit bending this stuff.. any idea at least. I'm curious.

I have never fucked around with a car tape player.. first thing is that to supply it with 12 volts dc.

I have done pretty extensive circuit bending of regular tape decks. The easiest thing to do is to replace the tape head with an input jack and use the tape deck as a distortion pedal.

There are other things you can do but I don't recommend trying them for a novice bender especially with something that is running off a power outlet.

I was looking into car audio a while back for some reason and concluded that powering it off 12v that doesn't actually come from a car was more trouble than it's worth... it was unexpectedly complicated in some way that I can't at all remember right now!?!? dizzy Tho since you have it already I can't see the harm in hooking it up to a 12v wallwart and see what happens.

woah his soldering technique is NOT GOOD tho onfire
