How To Connect Your PHONE to Your CAR STEREO?

Listening to your choice of music on the go has never been easier with the variety of solutions now available using the popular smartphones like Samsung Galaxy or the Apple iPhone. But what do you do if you want to listen to that same choice of your favourite tunes while you are driving? Well, the good news is that there are several excellent ways to enjoy the music stored on your smartphone via your car's stereo. In general terms these are available no matter whether you have an iPhone or whether you prefer an Android device like the Samsung Galaxy or HTC. There are 2 options available for connecting your phone to your car stereo.

Wireless Connection:

In the first instance you could listen to your music collection via Bluetooth, essentially by pairing up your smartphone with your car stereo. Set up is pretty simple and usually only needs to be done once, so long as Bluetooth remains active. The major disadvantage of streaming your music via Bluetooth is that it places heavy demands on your smartphone battery, which means that it may be necessary to have your phone constantly charging on a longer journey, somewhat negating the advantage of a wireless connection in the first place.

Wired Connection:

If a wireless connection is not the answer, or if you are looking for better sound quality, then you could connect your smartphone to your vehicle stereo by means of a USB or Audio Aux cable. For music lovers this offers the compelling advantage of a pure digital connection, meaning you will enjoy better quality sound reproduction direct via your car stereos digital/analogue converter, effectively bypassing  your phone’s output to play your music at its best.

In addition to the above methods, if you are an iPhone user, there are also many "made-for-iPhone" solutions available on the market as well, both as standalone products and also as accessories offered by a range of motor vehicle manufacturers.

Wondering if you can still buy a cassette player online?

Modern Cassette Player

Do you remember back to the Seventies and early Eighties when the must-have gadget for listening to your favourite music gradually starting moving away from LPs to the more portable, lightweight and easy-to-handle cassette tape? In the mid Seventies there was even a brief flirtation with the eight-track cartridge – in retrospect the Betamax of the music cassette world – but it’s popularity was short-lived and soon gave way to the slim cassette tape we are all familiar with. Cassettes reached the height of their popularity with the advent of in-car cassette players and portable players such as the Sony Walkman which meant you could access all of you music on the move. However, technology moves on inexorably and soon cassettes were on the way out, replaced in turn by compact discs.

So where does that leave you if you have lots of cassette tapes of your favourite artists? You can’t play them on your CD player or stream them via the internet. Fortunately, there are still a number of specialist retailers, particularly online, that stock an extensive range of top quality, modern, state-of-the-art audio equipment on which you can play your treasured cassettes, from whom you can buy a cassette player to meet your needs. Some of these may be stand-alone devices by cutting edge manufacturers, but if you are not sure you can justify the expense of buying audio equipment just to play your old cassette collection, why not invest in an audio system on which you can play a variety of different formats, from cassettes to CDs and even MP3s. That way you can enjoy the best of both worlds.

Combined with vacuum tube pre-amplification and final amplification, this Tesslor Radio produces an uncommon level of audio performance not found in modern radios. Inspired by the classic radios of the 1940′s, 50′s and early 60′s, like Grundig, Telefunken and Nordmende, the Tesslor 601 is unlike any mass produced AM/FM receiver you’ll find.

Benefits of Wholesaling vs Dropshipping Electronics for Online Resellers

If you are an electronics online seller you may be aware of 2 popular methods to sell  products. You can buy in wholesale or dropship products direct to your buyers. There are pros and cost for each method and as a retail business with experience with both these methods, we have picked wholesaling over dropshipping.

Buying in wholesale requires you buy products in bulk from a wholesaler and resell those products in smaller quantities. The unit cost that you pay for the wholesale order is often much less than the unit cost you sell the item for. This difference in unit cost allows you to make a significantly large profit for each sale.
 
Dropshipping is another process where you sell our products and the supply or dropship company will fulfill the order for you. You will sell the product for a higher cost than what the supply company will charge you. This difference in unit cost allows you to make a small profit for each sale.

Cons of Dropshipping

• Supply companies will not charge you real wholesale prices. Your profit margin is reduced.
• Dropship prices are often higher than wholesale prices. In todays competative online retail environment you may not be able to compete with other retailers. We have often noticed that some retail prices on sites like eBay are even lower than what dropship companies are offering.
• Your customer response time and order processing time will be higher. There will often be delay in shipping as your order will be first processed by you and then by your dropship companies. You will also often reply on dropship companies to answer customer queries which may increase the response time.

Pros of Wholesaling:

• Wholesale companies will charge you real wholesale prices. Your profit margin is increased.
  
• The profit martin will be substantial for you to competitive with other online retailers
• You can respond to customer inquiries and ship out orders faster - for the key reason being that you control the inventory and you don't need to rely on another company for inventory status, shipping status, product information, etc.

 Although our emphasis is on electronics such as as home audio, TV, mobile phone and GPS systems, these cons and pros and standard for most product types. Other online retailers who sell furniture, books, cosmetics, home decor and other products will face the similar situation.

For these reasons, if you are an online retail company looking to for electronics product to resell, we would suggest that you wholesale products instead of getting them dropshipped. The most important reason is that than when you buy wholesale you can true wholesale prices. In todays competitive online marketplace your selling price is the most important part of a shoppers buying decision. Electronics and other online resellers and refer to the  Wholesale and Dropshipper Directory to find both dropshippers and wholesalers.
