    What kind of car stereo do your have? The problem with FM transmitters are, FM has a very low bit rate like 50-70. The quality will have much more to do with your car than the transmitter. I suspect they are about the same except if some will transmit in HD. Then you would need a HD car radio.

    You paid a good price. You are not going to get much more quality for 10 pound. Regular FM is very low quality. Even HD FM radio is not great quality but it will blow away regular FM. Music quality is like a chain it is as bad as the weakest link. FM stereos are low quality so you can only get low quality music out of them. A good MP3 player with good ear plugs playing high quality MP3s can deliver fairly hi quality music. You will need to spend a few grand to get a speakered system to sound that good.
