Ultimately there is only so much you can improve the sound from your Walkman phone but the MMC-60 does a grand job.

I would definitely purchase one of these before an FM transmitter as I think you will find the length of the cable and the range of the FM transmitter about the same - around 1 metre.

yep, plus fm transmitter's cut frequencies above 15KHz so it's a narrower frequency response than can be pushed through copper.

SE music phones push out 20Hz-20KHz, so an FM transmitter cuts out a fair chunk of audio. My ears can still detect sounds slightly above 17KHz, so I'm hearing a flatter sound through an fm transmitter compared to copper.

I use an fm transmitter in the car however as I don't have an aux input on my head unit. I do use the MMC-60 still because atleast then I'm giving the signal the best path to the fm transmitter I can give it. It does give a better sound than the HPM-70 + "3.5mm minijack to rca" lead combination.

Also I think the line out via headphone socket may not be pure "line out" but it's not a very powerful signal so it doesn't hurt for it to be amplified via the line in circuit.

never tried it, but would be better connection than hpm-70+"3.5mm male to male" cable (less connections to pass through)
