do you mean the kind which goes into a cassette player, then plug into a iPod or Disc-player? I have the kind in my (old) car which I plug into my iPod and it plays really well! I got it @ the $5 store. I can look if they have them still??


Looks like this, execpt mine is white

Nope!  This is a switch that goes into the player Before the Headphone/speaker are hooked up.  The OLDER cassette books were tape in mono.  Therefore you have to switch the cassette over 2 times instead of once.  Anyway I need the switch to listen to them.  I have 2 [wish the senders would have told me..they only wanted the crs ....grrrr] & without the switch I cant play them.

I found one at Amazon for $4.95 plus shipping:  Bookcassette adapter

It is not the AB Switch described above.  This one allows you to listen to the 4 audio tracks on the cassette tapes, separately. 
You listen to each side twice.

Hope this helps.
