Product Description Emerson iPod Portable Audio System Black IP500BK
Amazon.com Product Description Emerson iTone iP500BK Portable Audio System is a compact, portable system that allows you to dock any iPod available as of January 2006 and play it through the built-in speakers. Because your iPod connects directly to the front-mounted docking system, this system is ideal for when you want to share your music with others, or for those times when listening through your ear buds is simply not an option. This system also features a digital clock and radio system with a full function remote control, as well as a folding bracket that lets you mount the iTone iP500BK on a wall or below a cabinet. And thanks to the USB connector, you can connect your iPod shuffle, while the included AC adapter lets you connect the system to an AC outlet and charge the battery of any iPod.
It's a breeze to customize the iTone iP500BK according to your personal preferences. The digital turner automatically scans the AM and FM bands and locks in stations perfectly with no repetitive fine tuning required. And you can save 30 of your favorite stations (15 AM and 15 FM) in the preset memory tuner for immediate recall at the touch of a button. The digital clock allows you to fall asleep and wake up to the radio or your iPod and a full function remote control makes for extremely convenient operation. If you need a little extra sleep, simply press the snooze button. With an illuminated, unified LCD display, this system makes sure you can always clearly see the time. Wide-range, three-inch speakers deliver a crystal clear, high-quality sound experience.
The iTone iP500BK can be operated on six "AA" batteries (plus two "AA" for clock and turner memory back up; batteries not included) or normal I20V AC house current (AC adaptor included). There's even an included an auxiliary input jack so you can connect other MP3 players, personal CD players, or any other external device that has a headphone jack.
Does what it says on the box, mediocre but livable sound qualityApril 7, 2008 I use this product in my bathroom. The master bath has a lot of extra counter-top space, and this sits in the corner and is tuned to the local AM news station in the morning while I shower and brush my teeth, etc. It works well for this purpose, though the AM antenna is actually inside the case (inaccessible), which means to adjust for the best reception, you must adjust the whole thing rather than just moving the antenna. The radio reception isn't stellar, but it's not bad either, just your average radio as far as that's concerned.
I like it because I also every once in a while decide I want to listen to some music while I'm in the shower, and I can just drop in my iPod and let it play. Sound quality isn't the best, but it's not bad enough to make me dig into the manual to find out how to set the EQ. This is just a pretty good all-around radio/iPod/clock with a conveniently small and handy little remote.
Don't waste your money!January 21, 2008 This "boom box" player for iPODs has the worst sound imaginable! Two tin cans with a string attached has higher fidelity. The iPOD doc is flimsy and has no adapter to make the smaller ones not flop around while docked with it. Dont' waste your money on this item. We'll be attempting to dump it on someone else at our next garage sale, but I doubt anyone will spend a buck for it!
Good optionJanuary 14, 2008 Product is exactly as described. Item was purchased as a gift for my son and he loves it!
