Slacker G2 Personal Radio Player Dock Review

Slacker G2 Personal Radio Player Dock
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The home dock has been a key missing accessories. Hopefully there will be a car dock as well. The home dock provides fix audio-out so this means that the volume must be controlled by the boombox, stereo or whatever you are using to listen. It also has a variable volume headphone jack, plus you can use almost any 5 volt USB cable with mini tip to power the dock. I am using a Motorola Razr AC power adapter and it works great. If you use the USB cable included with the G2 plug it into the dock and then into a computer it will allow you to charge the G2, but also you can add mp3's or you can refresh your station.
Now with the latest G2 firmware update, you have the ability to have the backlight come on when docked and powered. You can also have the G2 only come up when a song changes which as another cool feature.
You can also use the dock without power, though the backlight will not stay on, unless you set the G2 to have the backlight always on, but you can set it to turn on when a song changes. This allows you to use the dock and also make use of the G2's battery. Always charging it without every draining the battery is probably not a good idea for long term use.
The dock is well worth the $29.99.

Pioneer CD-INCAR1 Car Kit for Pioneer Inno Satellite Radio Review

Pioneer CD-INCAR1 Car Kit for Pioneer Inno Satellite Radio
Average Reviews:

I easily installed the Car kit in little time. Having a stereo though with no Auxiliary input I am relying on the FM transmitter. Living in a large but not to large metropolitan area I have trouble finding an open frequency thus giving interferance quite often. Even when having good reception I find that the trasmitter is quiter than a normal radio station (although you can set the transmition volume). Overall the kit is good.

I tried a radioshack brand transmitter first, but it was too staticy for me to want to keep it. I returned it and picked up this one. The signal comes through clearly in the south of Boston area. It seems to work well even when there's a competing signal (I don't have to switch stations on a long drive).

SanDisk Sansa Speaker Dock for Sansa e100 and m200 Series Players Review

SanDisk Sansa Speaker Dock for Sansa e100 and m200 Series Players
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Like other reviewers, I was impressed with the sound out of such seemingly small speakers. However, my Sansa is much newer (e280, and apparently not backward compatible with all the accesories...) and it did not fit on the dock or in the clips - nor did any of the additional connection configurations work to power/charge the player while playing it through the speakers. The headphone jack connector worked to play the music from my player through the speakers, but that was it. So, my recommendation is that this system is great if you have the correct version of the Sansa player. If not, the jumble of cords and lack of charging capability make this system less desirable. I am returning mine and plan to buy something that my Sansa will dock into directly.
UPDATE: I purchased the Altec Lansing im510 Dock for my e280 Sansa at Best Buy and it sounds (and charges) great. It's about $80 now.

Edge DiskGO FM Transmitter for iPod and Other Players Review

Edge DiskGO FM Transmitter for iPod and Other Players
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
July 2006. After testing the Jwin, Griffen 30BK, Edge DiskGO, and the Kensington Pico, and the MITO, the MITO wins hands down. The JWIN is not plug and play and presented quite a bit of static, the Griffin could not muster the volume, as was the case with the Kensington, and the Edge was just a P.O.S., with no stereo transmission, and a battery door that would not close. My test was specifically for transmission to a Panasonic Boom box, used while on vacation. In both N.J. and N.C., the MITO performed well, with little static, and plenty of volume for those late night jam sessions after the kids and wives were asleep. Go with the MITO, you won't be sorry.

Belkin TuneCast™ Auto for iPod®, Black Model F8V7101-BLK Review

Belkin TuneCast™ Auto for iPod®, Black Model F8V7101-BLK
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When I purchased this transmitter, I was a little skeptical about it because there weren't any reviews for this product which I thought it is so bad that no one wanted to purchase it. To my surprise, that wasn't the case at all. This product works just fine and I use it in my car every single day now. It provides really good non-static music (except when you cross frequency with another car). The only thing about it is my little button that helps to detach it from the ipod came off (probably only due to the banging around I did while taking the transmitter in and out) so now I have to use a clip to take it out.
As a designer myself, I think this product could go a little bit more sleek and small. The screen has two buttons where you can preset the channel that you want to stay on (unlimited channels). There would be a blue light on a small screen that allows you to see what channel you are on so you can set your radio to it.
I have never been a fan of Belkin because I heard a lot of negative experience with this brand before, but as for this transmitter, I will recommend it!

irock Beamit Wireless Music Adapter (400FM) Review

irock Beamit Wireless Music Adapter (400FM)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Actually, I'd like to give the iRock a rating of 3.5 stars, but settled on 3 stars.
I bought the iRock to go with my 40GB iPod. Overall, I'm quite happy with it. Here are the plusses:
*easy to use/install
*small (takes up only a little space)
*coiled power cord (helps!)
*uses very little power (with the batteries)
*reception is quite good on all 4 settings in a medium/large metro area (Twin Cities, Minnesota) with a lot of radio stations
Here's the minus: I was disappointed in the clarity of sound produced by the iRock. I don't know if the decreased clarity is due to the iRock or my car stereo (an Alpine in my Honda CRV), but the sound produced by the iRock simply isn't as good as the sound I get listening to the iPod with a cheap pair of headphones. If the clarity was a bit better I'd probably give the product 4 to 5 stars.
[I have discovered that I can improve the clarity of sound if I keep the volume on my iPod low and use the car stereo to adjust the volume. The clarity is 'fine,' but isn't great.]

This has to be the worst fm transmitter in the whole world.
First off it is a pain in the but and goes through batteries up the wazoo.
Second off the cord that goes from the fm transmitter to the Ipod or mp3 device breaks very easily after not much use. I had to go buy a new cord at radio shack for it then come to find out it took a different jack than a reg headphone jack so I had to buy an addapter so that the cord would work.
Third and finally I bought the cord for nothing because not even a week later the part on the transmitter where you put the cord into fell into the device making it impossable to use it ever again!
Again I must say THIS IS THE CRAPPIEST PIECE OF JUNK I HAVE EVER BOUGHT.

I got this to go with my Dell DJ. Since I go between two cars for my commute, I wanted something that wasn't "nailed down". This seemed to fit the bill. And it does, but I find myself constantly adjusting the tuner to clean up the signal while driving. I start off and the signal is strong, but 10 miles down the road it starts to fade and needs tuning. I do live in the Baltimore Washington area, so there are a lot of radio stations chewing up the air waves. I think the battery power source limits this items broadcast strength. And when you are near a city, regular FM is going to overpower battery-powered FM everytime. Good item as long as you are in a rural area.

I bought this to use with my Sensa MP3 player while commuting. I really like the clear reception and ease of setting the stations as I've been using it for last 9 months.
The reason I didn't give it 5 stars:
I wish the plug would bend so I can see the LCD better on my car. It's fine on the Minivan because the plug is low but I have hard time seeing the LCD on the sedan.
Otherwise, it's a great deal as I only paid $20 unlike ~$40 for other brands!

I live in Los Angeles; there's either a Mexican or Jazz station on every frequency! I tried the cassette-MP3 adapter (which I'd prefer if I didn't have that dreaded auto-reverse feature) and had to return it.
While this product only has 4 channels, they each worked for me with varying success. It's not CD quality, which is obvious when I play my classical music and when my son rocks out to songs with deep bass.
If you're ok with decent sound quality and can't use the cassette adapter, I'd say this product should work great for you.

Ezcube FM Transmitter + Hands Free (White) Review

Ezcube FM Transmitter + Hands Free (White)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've purchased three various FM transmitters varying from $[...] dollars and they all suck. When you FINALLY find a strong signal, it will quickly go away. I travel between New Orleans and New York and EZ-Cube works great in both cities.
Yes, it doesn't charge your media player, but it does come with a charger for the device itself which means it doesn't suck you iphone/ipod's energy.
Yes, it doesn't have a mounting system, but the cube is so freakin' small you plug it in the headphone jack and rest it in a cup holder or in any other little nook around you.
The most important aspect of this device aside from these two insanely minor issues is that it works great, I mean really great. Sure there will be moments where you'll hear some minor static, but compared to EVERYTHING else out there, it's night and day. And for $[...] bucks it's a steal.
Seriously, if an FM transmitter is your only option. BUY THIS ONE. What I don't understand is why this device can't be found in any retail store in the U.S.? At least not where I live, or why it's not sold on Amazon, instead it's sold through a secondary company. Come on guys you are seriously missing out in this market.
One last thing....buy it-it's worth every penny, I can listen to Wilco's spacious music without it being disrupted by a continuous hiss.

Belkin TuneCast Mobile FM Transmitter Review

Belkin TuneCast Mobile FM Transmitter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Belkin Tunecast is basically a small radio transmitter that plugs into the headphone jack of your iPod. The Tunecast transmits the music from your iPod to one of four selectable frequencies, which you can then listen to by simply tuning your home or car stereo to said frequency.
The most obvious advantage of this little device is the ability to use it anywhere there's a radio. Say you wanted to play your songs on your friend's stereo, or in your friend's car, or on a boombox at the beach: it's practically effortless with the Tunecast. And it's cheap, to boot.
Of course, what you gain in ease of use compared to, say, a direct line into your home or car stereo, you lose in sound quality. The sound is basically FM radio-quailty, with a noticible hiss in the background. Now, it's still more than listenable, and most of the time the music drowns out the hiss, but audiophiles in search of crystal-clear sound quality should look elsewhere (although they probably already know that).
Overall, I would recommend it simply because of its low price and versatility.

Play your portable music player in the car without upgrading to an expensive new stereo system with the Arkon SF150A SoundFeeder. The wireless FM adapter is designed to transmit the music from a portable CD player, iPod, or MP3 player to an empty frequency on your FM dial. All you have to do is plug the SF150A into your player's 3.5 mm headphone jack, and then tune the radio to any one of the blank FM stations between 88.1 and 95.9 MHz. (The transmitter works best when the station plays nothing but static.) Once you find an empty frequency, the SF150A plays your music directly through your car's stereo speakers. The sound quality is solid and reliable, though it does require precise manual tuning for best results.
Listeners can also use the SF150A on other radios as well, such as home stereos or portable boomboxes. And at a mere 3.38 by 1.62 by 0.88 inches (W x H x D), the SoundFeeder takes up very little space, letting you store it in a cup holder, pocket, or other location. The SF150A runs for up to 60 hours on two AAA batteries (not included) and boasts a transmission range of 10 to 20 feet, depending on conditions. It also comes with a 6.5-inch audio cord.
