iHome iH27 Portable Alarm Clock for iPod (Black) Review

iHome iH27 Portable Alarm Clock for iPod (Black)
Average Reviews:

I can't imagine what they were thinking when they designed this thing.
Here's the problem. If you have an ipod in the unit you cannot wake up to the buzzer, only the ipod. If you go to sleep with the ipod on, playing some mellow music at low volume, this is what you will hear for your morning alarm. It's not going to wake you. You cannot use the buzzer for an alarm unless you take the ipod out. What's the point of having it?
Mine is going back.

Perfect for the busy traveler, this portable iPod alarm clock speaker system lets you sleep or wake to your favorite iPod tunes or buzzer, or just enjoy a little music while your iPod charges. With a lock feature to maintain settings, battery or AC power, and a protective carrying case, it lets you take some room-filling sound nearly anywhere.


Charge and Play Your iPod Anywhere Play back your favorite tunes at home or while traveling with the iH27. While your iPod is docked, it receives a charge (when on AC power), so when you're ready to go, so is your iPod.

The iH27 power adapter is able to handle input voltage from 100 to 240 VA, so it'll work overseas with the right plug adapters. And because the iH27 is powered by either AC or four AA batteries (not included), you can enjoy music with or without an outlet. A handy carrying case is also included to keep the device safe and sound while in transit, whether it's a business trip or a barbecue.

Sleep or Wake to Your iPod The iH27 lets you wake to your docked iPod (or the buzzer alarm for you masochists). A gradual alarm feature gently raises the alarm volume, so as not to jar you out of sleep. You can also dim the display, with high, medium, low, and off settings.

The iH27 also has a sure alarm feature so the buzzer alarm will still sound in the event of power failure, if backup battery is installed.

And of course, there's a snooze button for grabbing a few more minutes of slumber and a sleep mode for falling asleep to your favorite tunes or podcasts.

Big Sound in a Small Package iHome's Reson8 technology, with through-body ported speaker chambers, gives the iH27's four speakers better response characteristics for superior stereo sound. In addition, SRS WOW technology is designed to provide a broader audio image with enhanced low-range and mid-range sound reproduction, in order to bring added life to compressed MP3 files.

Auxiliary Input and A/V Output Use the iH27's auxiliary input to connect external devices such as MP3 or CD players. You can also send the audio and/or video from the dock's A/V out to a television or stereo, for enjoying your iPod content on a larger scale.

What's in the Box iH27 main unit, AC adapter, iPod dock inserts, auxiliary cable, and user's manual.

iHome iH4 Alarm Clock Speaker System with Dock for iPod (Pink) Review

iHome iH4 Alarm Clock Speaker System with Dock for iPod (Pink)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this for my wife and haven't played with it too much but will pass on her comments. The unit is small and easy to use. Overall pleased with only two comments.
The volume is incremental and only adjusts from the unit itself and ignores any changes made on the iPod. The problem with this is that if you want to fall asleep to some 'gentle and soothing' sounds/music the difference between no sound and the first step is too pronounced.
The only other item to note is that the dimmer also has steps and if you like your room very dark at night the lowest setting visible is just a bit too bright. However, you can completely turn the light off which is nice and all you have to do is hit a button to turn it on -- then step thru all the settings to turn it off...but that's not too bad.

iHome iA5 App-Enhanced Alarm Clock Speaker System for iPod and iPhone (Black) Review

iHome iA5 App-Enhanced Alarm Clock Speaker System for iPod and iPhone (Black)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was looking for an alarm clock/charger for my iPhone and finally settled on this one. Partly intrigued by the fact it works in conjunction with an app, I wanted to see how the full package would operate.
It's a little bigger in person than I expected it to be so I might have preferred a smaller device, but that's not a deal breaker. The only other complaint I have is that when the device is working with the app, there's a large button on the top that turns on and emits a rather bright night light that I wish I had the option to turn off. It's not so bright as to keep me awake, but I happen to like a dark room when I sleep, so it's more light than I'm used to. Still, not a deal breaker and I'm thinking about just putting a sticker on top of it or something to dim it down.
The speaker gives out good sound quality, and you can manually control the clock's brightness even to where you can turn the display of completely if you prefer. The app is a nice touch and has some cool features like customizing the music/sounds you sleep and wake-up to, plus about as many alarm options as you want to set.
The buttons on the front are easy to manage and most of the clock's overall management (setting of the time, etc.) is done through the iPhone app, but there are buttons on the back that allow you to manage the clock that way as well.
One thing I was worried about was whether it would work with my iPhone's case on since I've read about other devices that don't fit the phone if you have a case on it. Thankfully this one fits just fine (I have an ifrogz case).
All in all, I'm happy with it.

iHome's first "app-enhanced" speaker dock for the iPhone OS that combines an interactive app with a dedicated bedside alarm clock, providing users the most connected and engaging sleep experience available.

Alarm Clock Speaker System for iPhone and iPod
Wake or Sleep to iPod or iPhone Start or end your day just the way you want it to sound, with your favorite playlist. If no iPod or iPhone is docked, the unit will revert to a buzzer alarm.

Whether buzzer or iPod, the alarm volume is gently increased, so as not to jar you out of sleep too forcefully. A snooze button is included, of course, with a default time of 9 minutes, adjustable up to 29.

Sleep Function The sleep timer lets you sleep to the music currently playing on your iPhone/iPod before shutting off at a chosen time. 90, 60, 30 and15 minute settings. The volume is gradually decreased once time is up.

Charge Your Device The iA5's Universal Dock charges your iPhone or iPod while it's docked. Enjoy your music all you want, your iPhone or iPod will end up fully charged.

Backup Battery Throw in three AAA batteries and you'll have a battery backup, handy for still making it work in the event of a power outage.

Time Sync Instantly sync the iA5's clock time to always-current iPhone time settings in seconds.

Great Sound iHome's Reson8 speaker chambers and specially designed high-end drivers deliver astounding clarity, depth and power. Basic bass and treble controls let you dial in the sound you're after.

Aux-In Jack Listen to aux audio sources (e.g., computer, CD player) using the 3.5mm auxiliary audio input.

App Enhancement
The iA5 is solid on its own, but really shines when you pair it with iHome's iPod touch/iPhone apps, available for free from the iTunes store. iHome app-enhanced models work with iHome apps to use the iOS touch-screen interface, internet connectivity, and extensive interactive capabilities. You can also use the apps to directly update the firmware of select iHome models, improving support and user experience.

iHome+Sleep iHome+Sleep is an interactive sleep lifestyle app for iPhone and iPod touch users. In addition to a full screen clock--with weather, iPod controls, and photo backgrounds--the app introduces Sleep Cards, a fresh way to encapsulate personal bedtime and wakeup settings such as alarms, music selection, social updates, personal reminders and much more. Turn any iOS device into an advanced alarm clock when you use iHome+Sleep, a free music alarm clock app.

iHome+Radio When local radio is not enough, connect to thousands of internet radio stations around the world. This Internet radio music app for iPhone and iPod touch lets you global radio stations no matter where you live, complete with storable presets.

iHome iP87 Dual Alarm Clock Radio with AM/FM Presets and Dock for iPhone and iPod with Remote (Black) Review

iHome iP87 Dual Alarm Clock Radio with AM/FM Presets and Dock for iPhone and iPod with Remote (Black)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a mostly very well thought out clock radio. I list below my LIKES and DISLIKES, so that you can more easily determine if this would be a good purchase for you:
LIKES:
* It charges your Ipod
* The alarm can be set to wake you up to your Ipod music (you create a Playlist on your Ipod called "iHome" with whatever song(s) you want; then when setting the alarm, you choose the option to wake to playlist)
* The alarm is a gradual alarm. Whether you choose to wake to a buzzer, iPod, radio, etc., the sound of the alarm starts gradually, before it comes on too loud. This is a nicer way to wake up, I think
* The digital display is very bright on its brightest setting. This can be useful as a nightlight in your room. However, if the radio is close to your bed, the brightness can easily be adjusted lower by pressing the "snooze" button until you find your desired brightness
* The sound quality is fine. Obviously, it cannot match full-size speakers, and for the price, it is not going to be quite as solid as similar sized radios which cost twice as much (or more). But, for this attractive price, the sound quality is fine, acceptable, etc.!
* It can be programmed to only way on the 5 weekdays, 2 weekend days or all 7 days. Although, as noted below, this may not be working correctly, or maybe I am missing a setting
* The price is very competitive for the features you receive on this radio
DISLIKES:
* Setting the alarm requires spinning a wheel-like dial. If you set different times regularly, and especially if those different times are far apart from each other, spinning the dial can be troublesome.
* Even though you are supposed to be able to set it for "5 days" (meaning it should only wake you M-F), I cannot seem to make that work properly. So, I work around this by telling it to wake me all 7 days, and on the weekends when my wake up schedule is different, I simply change the wake up time.
SUMMARY:
The LIKES greatly outweight the DISLIKES. This is a great iPod clock radio.

iHome iP9 Speaker Dock with Clock Radio for iPod and iPhone (Silver) Review

iHome iP9 Speaker Dock with Clock Radio for iPod and iPhone (Silver)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have searched hard to find the "perfect" iPod alarm clock. For me, the iHome iP9 comes closer than anything else I found, but it does have some very annoying flaws.
In my opinion, the best features are:
* The alarm can be set to wake to a random song on an "iHome" playlist on your iPod. Only Sanyo seems to have a product with a similar feature, but I think theirs looks REALLY ugly.
* The backlight dimmer has 7 levels of brightness and can even be turned off.
* You can adjust the snooze time from 1 to 29 minutes in 1-minute increments.
* The alarm volume (for radio and iPod) gradually increases for "gentle" waking.
* The sound quality is quite good for such a small unit.
The things that annoy me about the unit are:
* The alarm set buttons are located directly behind the snooze bar, and hitting one of these buttons resets the alarm when the alarm is sounding. While the snooze bar is very big and has a bump that you can feel with your fingers, I fear that I will accidentally turn off my alarm one morning when just trying to snooze for a few more minutes.
* There is a beep when setting the alarm. While this offers audio confirmation of your alarm setting actions, it can be annoying if you are trying to set the alarm when your significant other is sleeping.
* The dial controls are cool in theory/aesthetic but are not so great in practice. It can be more time-consuming to use these to set the alarm time and other settings when compared to conventional buttons and a system where one sets the hour and minute independently. Also, the dials are mechanical (unlike an iPod) and lack an indent or other means for providing traction. So, your finger can slip, making them not so easy to turn. For this, I found a simple work-around: I stuck on each dial a small, round, self-adhesive, clear plastic bumper (something you can find in any hardware store). This makes it much easier to turn the dials, but it does not get around the fact that dials are not always the best interface.
* Personally, I find only the dimmest and off settings for the backlight to be of any use. Perhaps, the other backlight settings would be needed if the unit is placed in direct sunlight. However, I find them too bright, and it is very slightly annoying that I need to press the dimmer button to cycle through the 6 other "on" settings each time I turn the backlight off. While definitely better than some competing units whose backlight is always way too bright (e.g. the Sony ICF-CD3iP), even the dimmest setting can be rather bright in a totally dark room.
For me, the positive outweighs the negative when evaluating this unit as an iPod alarm clock. While not my primary usage (and paling in comparison to a dedicated home stereo), I found the sound on this unit to be surprisingly good when using the unit as an iPod speaker system for casual listening in a small room.

The iP9 is an innovative clock radio for iPhone and iPod designed to shield annoying iPhone/mobile phone GSM noise. This way, the airplane mode is not required, and you'll never miss a call again when your iPhone is docked. The iP9 has several unique features, including a remote control, AM/FM presets, EQ controls, and even 3D sound for an enhanced audio experience. The iP9 also allows you to wake to your custom iPod playlist at different times on different days, with iHome's 7-5-2 feature and programmable snooze settings. You'll also enjoy great sound around the clock with their Reson8 stereo speaker chambers.


iPod, iPhone, Radio, or Buzzer Alarm Wake to your docked iPod, the radio, or--if you must--a classic buzzer alarm. Whichever you choose, a gradual alarm feature gently raises the alarm volume, so it's not too jarring. Dual alarm lets you set separate wake times.

You can set separate wake times for weekdays and weekends, and you can wake to the playlist or song of your choice.

Programmable Snooze The iP9's programmable snooze feature allows you to set snooze intervals of 1 to 29 minutes, so you can milk every last second of sleep before you're late for work.

Sleep Features Drift off to your iPod, iPhone, or radio, with programmable sleep times of 120, 90, 60, 30, or 15 minutes. Gentle Sleep gradually decreases the music volume as you drift off to dreamland.

What's more, an Adjustable Sleep volume solves an age-old alarm clock problem, allowing you to select a comfortable "sleep" volume level without affecting the "wake to" or listening volume levels.

Play and Charge Your iPod or iPhone The iP9's universal dock plays and charges most docking iPod models (in addition to using them for alarms), along with the iPhone. So when you do finally wake up, your device will have a full charge as you head out the door.

DST Switch Switch to daylight savings time at the flick of a switch, rather than pushing buttons for that whole extra hour.

AM/FM Radio The iP9 delivers solid radio listening, complete with an external AM antenna for better reception. Save your favorite stations on the AM/FM presets.

Big Sound, Small Package The iP9 delivers powerful audio with stereo drivers in specially designed Reson8 speaker chambers.

Reson8 is iHome's through-body ported speaker chamber technology. Porting speakers gives better bass response characteristics and helps the iP9 deliver sound beyond its size.

Bass, treble, 3D, and balance controls let you further adjust the sound to your liking.

Auxiliary Input Connect external devices like MP3 or CD players to the rear auxiliary input for your enjoyment.

Full-Function Remote Control Enjoy convenient control from a distance with the included remote--control both radio and iPod functions.

What's in the Box iP9 Clock Radio and Audio System (Silver), remote control, docking inserts, AC power adapter, AM antenna and stand, and owner's manual.

The product worked great. It was super easy to set up and use. The sound was good for a clock radio. Unfortunately, when I turned off my lights at night, it looked like I had a street lamp in my room. There was no way to dim it, and I ended up covering it with a towel to sleep. It will be going back. Can't sleep when I'm blinded!

Average Reviews:

Don't get me wrong I love the design of this stereo/alarm, but that's about it. The sound from the speakers are high pitched (like cheap speakers), so the sound quality isn't very good. The light from the clock is pretty bright. It lights up my whole room and makes it hard to sleep. The alarm setting on isn't thought out. The music comes on blasting or if you set the bell on it, it sounds like a horn. If I would have had a chance to try it out before I purchased it. I don't think I would have bought it.. The honest truth.

iHOME Blue Space Saver Alarm Clock For iPod
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was excited to get this iPod dock/alarm clock when I ordered it. Unfortunately, I'm guessing that I received a refurbished item or a dud. For two weeks I was able to wake up to my favorite tunes playing through my fancy new alarm clock. Then one night I was awakened by a horrible screaching and the alarm clock was blinking crazily. The only way to get it to stop was to unplug the whole thing! This happened to or three more times. Each time I had to reset the clock and all the features.
Lately the screaching has stopped, but the darn thing also won't play music through the speakers. I just use it as a dock to charge my phone.
I'm pretty disappointed

Philips AJ300D Clock Radio with iPod/GoGear Dock Review

Philips AJ300D Clock Radio with iPod/GoGear Dock
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Once you get past the fact that Amazon has really misrepresented this item, I can say that it really is a what I needed. Yes, as mentioned by another reviewer, there is NO CD player funtion at all. It would have been fantastic if Philips had designed it with one in mind, but I think it would have killed it's compact size which is why I bought it. There are only 5 presets (not 20 as per Amazon's description and the unit only plays FM, no AM). This is mentioned in the "Technical Details" of the description page, if you click on it. The detail that there is no CD funtion is there, too - very contradictory.
I love the fact that it's small (I can move it from room to room). There are three wake-up modes (FM radio, gentle wake buzzer, and iPod dock). But, the best item would have to be the wOOx technology for powerful bass, on the back of the unit. That sold me on this "Play and Charge" unit, and I love that feature the most. The sound is excellent for the price. You can still connect a portable CD player, VCR or even an iPod Shuffle, through the AUX port and cord supplied. So, it's not a one trick pony.
The clock function is good, with 3 brightness settings (Bright, Low and OFF), and both Sleep and Snooze funtions on the alarm. I found it simple to set the clock and alarm(s). No battery back-up is a negative. Even a simple 9V would be enough to keep presets and radio function if the power went out.
Overall: I like it, I really do.

GOgroove SENSE QUAD Speaker Sound System with FM Radio and Alarm Clock for AT&T and Verizon Apple iPhone and iPod (NEWEST AND PREVIOUS MODELS) Review

GOgroove SENSE QUAD Speaker Sound System with FM Radio and Alarm Clock for ATandT and Verizon Apple iPhone and iPod (NEWEST AND PREVIOUS MODELS)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've been using this speaker for about 3 days now. Here's what I found:
Sound:
It's pretty good. It has 4 speakers that you can visibly see through the black speaker mesh. I think it ads a nice visual touch. At max volume the sound can fill a room nicely. I've used it in my office and in my bedroom thus far. Volume goes up to Level 40, with an Equalizer with treble and bass that goes from -08 to 08 by intervals of 02. There is very good range in the treble and bass variance. When I blasted the treble, bass and volume at full the sound got a little distorted, but when I changed the volume from 40 to 38, the sound was clear. I'd say it depends on the music you are listening to, but if you want it LOUD, put it at Volume 38, Bass 06, Treble 06. When I just want medium level music I found that Volume 22-26 is good, and I just leave the bass and treble at 06. You can adjust the volume eithe ron the remote, or on the speaker dock. You can ONLY adjust the bass and treble with the remote. I haven't used the FM Radio function that much, but 106.7 KROQ in Los Angeles has been working well.
Physical Design:
The design looks good. It fits in nicely wherever I put it. Some speaker docks look kind of wierd lately.. like space aged designs. This one is slick, fun, and practical. The shape of it is kind of cool. I like how my iPhone docks in the middle of the two speakers. The blue clock face is a nice touch. Also, this thing runs on 6 AA batteries so it allows you take take it away from the wall outlet. I got 8 hours of play time off of a single charge of 2100mAh recharegable batteries.
Alarm Function:
The iPhone wake-up feature is cool because you can wake up to the last song that you were listening to on your iPhone. AND wake up with it FULLY CHARGED :) !!! The sound starts out low, and then it comes in and gets louder and louder until you wake up.. great idea. You can also set it to wake you up via FM radio or beeping/buzzer noise. I haven't used those options though. The Snooze button is cool for sleeping an extra 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes. ALso there's a nap function but I don't really take naps so I haven't used it. The thing I liek most is that you can control the alarm with the remote so you can shut it off or set it from the bed.
Remote:
It does EVERYTHING. No complaints. I can sit in bed and go through my whole iPhone with the remote. You can get to songs, playlists artists and you can go up and down levels in the folders... even switch to podcast. It's great to have a remote when you are tired :)
Other stuff:
I've used it with my friends Droid x to play music becuase the back has a AUX jack and it comes with a cable...great. I took it to the beach and used it with batteries and it was pretty cool. It won't charge your iPhone off of AA batteries though.
I like this speaker because for me its perfect. I can see how some people might not need all the stuff this thing packs. I dont' use the FM radio so much. All the other stuff is cool. I like that its compact and still has 4 speakers. Solid product. Also it comes with a 3 year warranty.

iHome iH9 Alarm Clock Speaker System with Dock for iPod (Black) Review

iHome iH9 Alarm Clock Speaker System with Dock for iPod (Black)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have a couple minor complaints with the iHome IH9, let's get those out of the way. First complaint: the AM reception, even with the external antenna isn't great. With the antenna it is "OK" but without the antenna it is non-existent. My previous inexpensive AM/FM clock radio (with digital tuner) did a much better job with AM. Second complaint: I wish the volume wheel & adjustment wheel (top left, top right) were "grippy-er". Laying in bed they are kind of hard to turn. Finally, with the iPod sitting above the clock it seems a touch funky and fragile, but I think it is probably fine - almost all the iPod clocks have this EXACT same design, so, I am just paranoid.
Now, for the things I like. The sound is really good. I don't think it is an "auto-set" clock, but it came from the factory already set. Keeps good time (so far). Readout is super easy to read. There are 7 brightness settings to the display, including OFF, and it fast and easy to switch between them. The fall asleep to (radio/ipod/line-in) is great, the dual alarms to (buzzer/radio/ipod/ipod-playlist/line-in) is great. The fact that either alarm can be 7-day, 5-day (weekday), or 2-day (weekend) is fantastic. The remove is somewhat useful, I guess - haven't used it much.
It is a touch pricey, I paid $90 - but I really love the features and sound. No plans to return it.

The iH9 is an updated and improved successor to iHome's award-winning iH8 clock radio for iPod. The iH9 contains several new features requested by customers, including a remote that controls both the unit and iPod menu functions; controls for bass, treble, and balance; and 3D sound for an enhanced audio experience. iHome has updated the design to make the cabinet even sleeker and more user-friendly, as well as further enhanced the alarm settings--you can wake to your own custom iPod playlist at different times on different days.

iPod, Radio, or Buzzer Alarm Wake to your docked iPod, the radio, or--if you must--a classic buzzer alarm. Whichever you choose, a gradual alarm feature gently raises the alarm volume, so it's not too jarring. Dual alarm lets you set separate wake times.
The 7-5-2 alarm setting means you can set separate wake times, either for every day or separate weekday/weekend times. You also can wake to the playlist or song of your choice.
The alarm also boasts a number of features to ensure you get up in the morning. Battery backup means you'll still get up in the event of a power failure, and Alarm Reset turns off the alarm and automatically resets it for the same time the following day. If you choose to wake to your iPod but no iPod is docked, you're still covered--the iH9 will sound the buzzer instead.
Sleep Features In designing the iH9, iHome paid special attention to the other end of the alarm clock equation--going to bed. Fall asleep to your iPod or the radio, with programmable sleep times of 120, 90, 60, 30, or 15 minutes. Gentle Sleep gradually decreases the music volume as you drift off to dreamland.
What's more, an Adjustable Sleep volume solves an old alarm clock problem, allowing you to select a comfortable "sleep" volume level without affecting the "wake to" or listening volume levels.
Programmable Snooze The iH9's programmable snooze feature allows you to set snooze intervals of 1 to 60 minutes, so you can milk every last second of sleep before you're late for work.
Play and Charge Your iPod The iH9's universal dock plays and charges most docking iPod models (in addition to using them for alarms). So when you do finally wake up, your iPod will have a full charge as you head out the door.
Quick Time Zone and DST Switch Traveling or moving with your iH9? Adjust the preset time to any of seven different time zones at the touch of a button. Ditto on that pesky daylight savings time.
AM/FM Radio The iH9 delivers solid radio listening with PLL digital tuning, an external AM antenna for better reception, and built-in automatic frequency control (AFC) for enhanced FM reception.
Save your favorite stations on the four AM, four FM1, and four FM2 presets.
Big Sound, Small Package The iH9 delivers 6 watts of great sound, thanks to its high-fidelity stereo speakers in specially designed isolated speaker chambers. Dial in the bass, treble, and balance controls to get just the sound you want, or flip on the 3D setting for an immersive experience.
Need more? The included speaker jack lets you add separate speakers.
Auxiliary Input Connect external devices like MP3 or CD players to the rear auxiliary input for your enjoyment.
Full-Function Remote Control Enjoy convenient control from a distance with the included remote--control radio and iPod functions, plus EQ and volume. You also can control snooze and reset alarm functions, in case the device isn't by your bedside.
What's in the Box iH9 Clock Radio and Audio System, remote control, docking inserts, AC power adapter, AM antenna and stand, and owner's manual.

iLive Clock Radio with Docking and Charging Station for iPhone/iPod (Black) Review

iLive Clock Radio with Docking and Charging Station for iPhone/iPod (Black)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I liked the features and large numbers if this clock radio, but was very disappointed when I got it home and tried it out.
Though large, the numbers are very close together so can be hard to read from any distance. They also have poor contrast -- turning them up to the highest brightness makes the background so bright that the effectiveness of the bright setting is lessened.
I was particularly looking for a radio with presets, and this has them (20 FM) but the implementation is so poor they are basically useless. With only one button to work with, you have to cycle through the 20 presets to get to the one you want. I put my most often used preset at number 1. If I miss and end up on preset two, that's twenty clicks to get back to what I want -- or if I'm on number two and want to go to number one, I've got to go all the way around. Ridiculous.
The iPod/iPhone features are basic, but seem to work well. The radio reception is fine, as is the sound quality. This might be fine for someone who doesn't listen to the radio much, or only listens to one station, and has sharp eyes to read the time across a room (or can put this near to where they will be when reading it). Otherwise stay away.

Enjoy amazing sound from iLive's retro dot-matrix digital clock with docking station for iPhone and iPod. This sleek clock radio features a digital FM tuner with 20 presets, and a dual alarm with snooze, gradual wake, and the ability to wake up to music from the radio, iPod, or iPhone. With its simple, stylish exterior and retro, white dot-matrix digital read-out, it's an elegant and useful addition to your nightstand.

Charge and Play Your iPod The ICP200B will charge and play your docked iPod, so you can listen to (or wake up to) your tunes while it receives a charge. When you wake up and hit the road, your iPod will be ready.

FM Radio Pull up your favorite FM radio stations with 20 user presets, for instant access to live programming.

Dual Alarm Set two separate alarms and wake to your iPod, the radio, or even a good old-fashioned buzzer. The alarm volume increases gradually so as not to jar you out of sleep.

Throw in two AAA batteries for backup, and you'll still make your appointments even during power outages. The usual snooze and sleep timers are included as well, for drifting off or refusing to get up just yet.

TV Output Enjoy video from your docked video-enabled iPod on the big screen, thanks to a composite (RCA) video output. Connect a standard RCA style AV cable to the composite output, adjust your iPod's TV out setting to "on," then sit back and enjoy.

Auxiliary Input Listen to external audio source--like computers, CD players, non-docking iPods, or MP3 players--using the auxiliary input.

What's in the Box iLive ICP200B speaker dock, AC power adapter, iPod docking brackets, user's guide, and warranty card.

iHome iP90 Dual Alarm Clock Radio with AM/FM Presets and Dock for iPod and iPhone (Silver) Review

iHome iP90 Dual Alarm Clock Radio with AM/FM Presets and Dock for iPod and iPhone (Silver)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
iHome's previous iPod/iPhone clock radios have left something to be desired in the style department, but this one changed all that. The design is sleek and modern and the sound quality is excellent. Here are the highlights:
Pros:
* Easy to program
* Awesome sound quality
* Sleek, modern look
* Multiple volume settings (one for normal, one for sleep, etc)
* Multiple alarm settings (weekday, weekend, etc)
* Doesn't feel cheap when you touch/hold it
* Big readable display
Cons:
* Entire face is illuminated, not just the digits. Brighter overall than it should be
* Takes up a fair amount of room on a nightstand
* Remote is not illuminated
Overall I am pleased with this product and would recommend it to others. If I could change one thing about it, it would be the clock face so that the entire plate was not backlit, just the digits themselves.

Newly designed for 2010 with a bigger display and bigger sound, the iP90 lets you charge, play and wake to iPhone/iPod, and has great features like a handy remote, AM/FM pre-sets, dual alarm, Time Sync, 7-5-2 alarm settings and more.

iHome iP42 Dual Alarm Clock Radio for iPod and iPhone (Gun Metal Gray) Review

iHome iP42 Dual Alarm Clock Radio for iPod and iPhone (Gun Metal Gray)
Average Reviews:

We bought this radio to replace an old am-fm radio we had in the kitchen. It has worked out very well. Sound quality is good, fm reception is excellent, the size is small enough not to take up much space on the kitchen counter, and the extra feature of being able to plug in an iPod is a bonus. The old radio did not have a back-up battery, and this one does, which is another plus.

iHome Spacesaver Dual Alarm Clock Radio for iPod - Pink (IH12P) Review

iHome Spacesaver Dual Alarm Clock Radio for iPod - Pink (IH12P)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this for my 14-year-old daughter about a month ago. She had an iHome that bit the dust after a lot of use and was wanting to replace it. I took a chance and hit the jackpot !
It's small size makes it very cute and the shocking hot pink color was a hit. Basically, it looks so cute she didn't care that much how it sounded. The small size makes it ideal for her bedside table and she can operate all the controls from bed. It's easy to operate and has all the features she and I were looking for. In particular, we like the sleep feature. She can put her iPod in, set the sleep timer for 90 minutes and it takes care of itself. Otherwise, the music would go on all night !
The sound isn't fabulous, but it's consistant with the price point and a decent value.
Overall, a very good purchase !

iDesign Cube Clock Radio for iPod Review

iDesign Cube Clock Radio for iPod
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I'm legally, though not totally, blind. Consequently, I tend to look for products that really stand out visually. Though this display generates from behind a screen, it's the easiest to see, find or focus on that I've ever seen. I think that the screen may also serve to "soften" what might otherwise be a rather harsh LED glow.
The sound from this device is suprisingly deep and rich and, though I hate to say it, surpasses that of my walnut encased VERS dock. I really was taken aback by the range this little cube could generate.
On the down side, if you don't like using printed instructions or prefer to simply dive into setup as I do, this is not an intuitively designed product. While navigating music and volume are straightforward (though I really would have liked a remote with this device) setting time and alarm are not. DON'T LOSE THE INSTRUCTIONS.
Is it worth the $99 price tag? Well, I'd like to say no, but I've purchased two; one for myeself and one for a friend as a housewarming gift. I really do like it and know that my friend does, as well. I'd like to see a lower price, particularly with no remote, but it's afine product, and you know that adage about a product being worth what people are willing to pay for it.

After using this alarm for two weeks I really like it.
Pros: It has two alarms that can be set for either 5 days a week or 7 days and be set for Zune, radio or beep.
-The speakers sound really good for a smallish clock. Not enough power for a party but plenty loud enough for a bedroom.
-Good base/treble/3d effect controls.
- Large easy to read display that had lots of brightness settings from Nightlite bright down to basicaly off.
- Easy to hit snooz button that you can adjust the length of snooze.
- It comes with adapters for all of the Zune models ( I am using it with a HD) The Zune fits snugly and makes a good connection all of the time.
-The Sleep function slowly lowers the volume as shutdown aproaches.
Cons: No remote control.
-The Zune HD has locked up twice after inserting into the base
