Listening to personal music when I'm on the go is one of my favorite things in life. When I'm working out, or driving to work, it is much more enjoyable to listen to my favorite music, rather than commercial radio or silence. An iPod is so great because they can hold more music than I could have ever collected if I were buying CDs.

Portable music players have come along way since the Sony Walkman. Having the ability to walk around with our favorite music was an incredible step forward for the music industry. These days almost everyone has an mp3 player (most likely an iPod). These little devices are extremely easy to use and allow you to hold hundreds of albums in the palm of your hand. When you're in the car however, most people find that their vehicle doesn't have an easy way to hook up an iPod. Because of this, an FM modulator is a popular item for iPod owners.

Wired FM modulators are usually what people think of when you mention FM modulators. They are the type of modulator that must be permanently installed in a vehicle. This installation process is what makes a wired modulator not worth the money in my opinion. First of all, the installation will be more time and money spent if you don't have the wiring knowledge necessary to do the installation. And even when the installation is done, there is no guarantee that it will work the way you had hoped. If something goes wrong with the modulator, having it permanently installed in the dash makes the problem that much harder to address. The better option is wireless FM modulators.

Many wireless modulators have pretty poor performance unfortunately. However, the best ones can easily broadcast music over a hundred feet, which results in very high audio quality. Good FM modulators are compatible with all audio sources and can transmit on any available frequency in the public FM band. Check out this wireless modulator FM for an example of what I'm talking about.

Since most wireless FM modulators can barely transmit a few feet, their are many disgruntled customers out there. You can find evidence of this on large eCommerce sites like eBay and Amazon. To make sure you're getting a good modulator, check out these sites and make sure the feedback for the modulator your considering is generally positive.

Wireless FM modulators give you many more options than a wired unit. Being able to use the modulator in multiple vehicles and other locations like your home is a huge advantage. Wireless units are also much easier to use and setup because they require no extensive installation like a wired FM modulator. All in all a wireless FM modulator provides more bang for the buck.
