Customer Reviews
Great Product 
2007-11-14
Works great when not in large city with a lot of high-power signals around. Does what it should for a portable unit. Great quality from Monster.
Pretty useless in NorthWest (UK)

I live in Manchester(UK) and commute to Bolton.
For this area the device is useless.
There are NO free frequencies common across the area.
There are few that were *passable* in Manchester and fewer *passable* in Bolton (and they weren't the same)!
It just isn't possible to use.
[passable - there's someone frying chips in the background]
Works but could be better

I 've owned this product for about a year or more now. In general it works just as described, but in the city where the radio stations have a stronger signal you will encounter a lot of static interference. I drove to Nicaragua with it and it was great, was able to keep my iPod charged while enjoying my tunes during the 12hr drive. When I drive to work I don't use it anymore because there's simply too much interference, therefore I decided to upgrade my stereo head unit and purchased the Pioneer DEH-P6900UB that has a USB connection. Now that is quality, no more interference. I find it's a bit over priced for what you get, but it works, just keep in mind while driving in the city you may not get a clear signal and therefore not good sound. The further you go away from the city the better it works.
Great iPod Adaptor for your car!

This thing works great! Much more compact than some of the other adaptors I've tried. Great for if you travel lots and have to get rental cars, will charge your iPod too!
It only works half the time

I bought this product on Amazon used for about half off the original price from a highly rated seller. It arrived quickly and appeared in great condition. I plugged it in and it didn't work. Then it worked - then it went haywire. So far I've enjoyed a few songs on it but it wasn't worth the money.
So so....

It works so so..... Some static is detectable. Benefit of charging the ipod while in use in the car.
If possible, use a cassette adaptor instead

This was possibly the best radio broadcaster that I've used for my iPod. That said, the utility of these was rather lacking as I live in the city and drive through traffic constantly. If I wasn't having enough problems finding open stations, driving past other vehicles inhibits the broadcast quality.
In the end, I realized that my car's cassette player was a wonderful option to have installed. Any lossage possible over that connection is nowhere near as bad as the unpredictable FM spectrum. Until my next car comes with a direct input jack, this is just a car charger for me.
There are better ways...

I have tried 3 different Ipod adapters in my wife's car, and one more in my truck. The Monster cable works well enough but its biggest drawback is that it's very difficult to change the channel. Unlike some other transmitters that have simple up/down buttons, the Monster cable needs to be reprogrammed to change channels, which you can't do while driving.
Works where ever we go 
2007-12-13
I found a good station to us and now we have our IPOD music everywhere we go.
Not impressed 
2007-11-26
For the price I paid for this thing I expected it to last longer than it did.
For one thing, the sound quality sucks. I ended up staying with the cassette player adapter instead of listening to my iPod though this.
It was good for keeping it charged while listening though... until the cord wore out and at that point it was completely useless.
Would I buy this again? Not a chance.
