Amazon.com Product Description Why shuffle through stacks of CDs and tapes to find the song you want in the car when you can listen to the iPod? The Monster Cable iCarPlay Wireless Plus FM transmitter gives your car stereo great-sounding, wireless access to your entire iPod library, all while charging the portable jukebox to keep the music playing. Simply plug one end of the iCarPlay Wireless Plus into the 12-volt cigarette lighter and the other end into the dock connector on the bottom of your iPod. Once you select matching FM stations on your car stereo and the iCarPlay device, you're ready to roll. Your favorite music will transmit wirelessly to your car stereo using FM frequencies, and because it offers full FM tuning flexibility (excluding 87.7 and 87.9 MHz), you're guaranteed top-quality, interference-free sound. Meanwhile, Monster's Smart Digital Charging technology will rapidly charge your iPod when the power is low, and when its fully charged, the transmitter switches to a trickle charge to optimize the iPod's performance. You'll never have to worry about running out of power when using the iCarPlay. Additional features include three programmable "favorite station" preset buttons, an easy-to-ready LED display, and 24k gold contacts for maximum corrosion resistance and power transfer. The iCarPlay is compatible with all iPods that utilize a dock connector, including the iPod mini.
Very Pleased.July 9, 2008 I was a little hesitant with the mixed reviews that FM transmitters seem to get. The Monster brand seems to get the most consistantly satisfactory reviews so I went ahead and gave it a try. I've been very pleased wtih the ease of use and the sound quality. I do occaisionally have to change stations to keep from losing my reception, with 3 preset stations that is very simple. I've been amazed at just how much radio noise this thing will broadcast over. I get pretty decent reception even on radio stations that I can clearly hear staticy broadcasting on. The sound quality is a bit lower than the CD deck, but as good or better than anything on the FM band, a fair trade since the other option to listen to my ipod in the car would be a costly new stereo.
That said, I wonder how much difference they type of car and stereo antena you have makes. I have a small SUV with an in-windshield stereo antenna, so the unit is just a few feet from the antenna. I wonder if some of the reviewers who have had poor experiences have cars with external antennas. As far as the reviews that say that big citys are a problem, i haven't noticed that either, i live near Detroit and drive there every day, i've taken it on roadtrips to Baltimore and had no problem there either.
Does the trickJuly 8, 2008 Once I got my license, I was so excited to finally hit the road on my own. I made a couple CDs to listen to in the car while I was driving, but soon grew bored with them, or wanted to add more/different songs to the mix and was wasting multiple CDs burning different versions of mixes I had made, and I can't stand the radio stations where I live so I bought myself this gadget, which was reccomended to me by a friend (another relatively new driver fed up with the radio and tired of wasting CDs). The car I drive has a great sound system, but there is still some static every once in a while. Overall, though, it does the trick and is easy to use. And I no longer have to listen to the radio (thank goodness!), which actually makes me a safer drive as I fuss less with changing the station multiple times. Plus, it doubles as a charger, which is perfect for me who always forgets to actually charge my iPod. So, to sum it up, if you're tired of the radio and your taste in music changes often, this will definitely make your car rides more enjoyable.
Hated it!!!!July 8, 2008 I was so excited to get this thing and jam out to my iPod in my car. I read all the reviews saying how good it was, but it just didn't work for me. I bought a DLo Transdock and it works 110 times better then this piece of junk. I couldn't get any clear station but DLo gives me alot more static free stations and bangs the iPod loud!!!! Monster gets 2 thumbs DOWN!
Works GreatJune 25, 2008 My Monster cord arrived promptly and works great. I would order from this seller again.
Not the bestJune 20, 2008 This is not the best FM transmitter I have used, but it works pretty well most of the time. I had a Kensington FM tranmitter (that was stolen) that worked much better. I live in a metro area, so it is somewhat difficult to find open stations; I have to change stations at least once on my way to work most days. That being said, I used it while driving 500 miles this past weekend and rarely had to change the station.
