How to connect Cowon A3 Player to Car Stereo

Hi Friends,

I have a Cowon A3 Player which I would like to connect to my Sony Car Stereo.
However when I connect the player to the car stereo using the Aux cable I don't get any audio out to my Car Stereo.
Can someone help me on this?

Have you tried fiddling with the settings of the car stereo? You need to switch to AUX as source from FM/AM/USB/CD. Most players won't detect it automatically.

If I connect the AUX Cable to the Earphones socket of the Cowon Player and the other end to the Car Stereo AUX Cable it works.
Only thing I need to get one Aux cable.
Where can I get hold of a decent cable?

ANY electronic shop. AUX cables are cheap. You can get local ones for around Rs 20-30.

Does quality matter?
Saw one for Rs 200-300 online

Depends on you. Frankly, I'd get for less than Rs 50. I don't see the point in spending more for an AUX cable.

I believe quality definitely matters. Get the Belkin Flat Audio Cable AUX Cable - Belkin : Flipkart.com

or

Amazon.in: Buy Belkin MiXiT Tangle-Free Aux / Auxiliary Cable, 4 Feet (Black) Online at Low Prices in India | Belkin Reviews & Ratings

Point is get a Belkin atleast.
