this item works well when you are park i use it when working around the yard. when driving fades in and out alot just alright.

This was a gift which was well received. I do know the shipment was fast.

This transmitter and charger works great! I bought this transmitter last year for my daughter. Her boyfriend liked hers so much, he asked for one for Christmas. It is very easy to use and works very well.

If you are looking for a device to play your Ipod music through your car radio, then ideally this would be the perfect gadget. Unfortunately, the Moster icarPlay wireless FM transmitter does not fit the bill. Tuning to the prescribed open channel limited by your geographical area can result in barely audible sounds. The static and bleeds from other channels makes this piece of technology worthless.

This came with my IPOD. I was sceptical. Previous FM transmitter I owned was a PITA. I had to change the frequency to a clear spot on the band and it worked greaT. Now my wife will stop giving me what for because I'm wearing earphones while I drive.

This product is not as espected, the quality is not good, it got damaged after few uses.

I read some of the reviews for this product, and it sounds like it does not work for everyone, but I have had no problems with it. I picked this up on black friday for 30$, and have enjoyed it since.

The presets worried me at first, because there is a big radio station in the presets range, but the transmitter had no problem on several of the 8 choices. When I plugged it it, I heard absolutely nothing on the station until I turned on my ipod (by this, I mean the transmitter completely went over anything that was on that station).

Great product from my experience, but others might have issues if they can't find a good station.

I have tried several of these type units that allow you to play your ipod through the FM transmitter and this is by far the best. It gets the best reception day and night. The previous one I had, the iTrip, you had to hold the unit against your ipod or else it would have by static interference. Not usually the safest thing to be doing while driving. Also, the iTrip didn't work once the sun went done, it was very frustrating. I haven't had any problems with any of the Monster products I own and highly recommend them to anyone.Monster iCarPlay Wireless Plus FM Transmitter/Charger for iPod

This product works well as advertised. However, it has problems one should be aware of. There is a choice of about 10 FM frequencies to use. There needs to be more. If I am away from a large city, I can usually find one of the frequencies that does not have a strong signal that interferes with the performance of the ipod. However, when I am in the city I get marginal performance at best. Sometimes it is not usable. This needs to be resolved before I would consider this product a finished solution.

This is a piece of garbage. What a waste of 70 bucks!!! It did not work at ALL. Constant static, no way to fine tune. It has the look and feel of something you'd find at the bottom of a cracker jack box. Go with the PodFreq by Sonnet.

It is an absolute piece of junk. I usually start with it unplugged, scan through all the frequencies available, locate and take note of the ones with the weakest external signal, and start my trip. Well, in a 15 mile commute, I can't drive more than 5 minutes without having to try to find another station where it has less interference. It simply doesn't work.

After two years of owning the icarplay, and not being terribly impressed with it, I am finally giving it up. It has worked terribly in all but the most remote of locations, and it frequently cuts out of one channel of my stereo. But I just found out today that it has RUINED two of my ipods!

I replaced my old 30g ipod video about three weeks ago, because my computer stopped recognizing it. It was out of warranty, so i had to buy a brand new one, full price, etc. Then, two days ago, the brand new 80g ipod classic also stopped being recognized by my computer! This was a very unique problem, and it was strange that it had happened twice to me.

I took it to the mac store, and the genius desk guy concluded that power surges via the Monster had fried the motherboards of both ipods. Now, this may have been in part due to a problem of my car, I don't know, but I plan on NEVER hooking anything from a cigarette lighter into any electronic that I value.

In the end, it would have been not much more money, and ultimately cheaper, to just get a cheap car stereo with a 1/8" audio input, which is what I plan on doing with my new (3rd) ipod. And I will have way better sound quality!

This piece of junk is highly NOT recommended. Expensive, poor quality, a pain to use, and possibly dangerous to your ipod.

The sound with this cable is good, but i'm think that was better. However is good if you don't have any posibility to ear in your card your music.

This gadget works as well as it can. But going through an FM frequency
is not very clean. One gets all kinds of interference. There has to be a better way to connect an ipod directly to the sound system of your car stereo.

Not outstanding, but not horrible. It does what I expected, but it doesn't blow my hair back. I think it was worth the money I paid for it, I would buy it again if I had it to do all over.

I bought this the other day and it works but with background noise the whole time it is being used which after a while it bothers me so I will be looking at a different way to connect my ipod to my radio.

This product worked horrible. The static was louder than the music and there are not enough stations to choose from.

This product was not only cheaper than numerous competitor stores, but I received the item in 3 days and didn't pay any shipping. I recommend this site to anyone, and the products are legit and work wonderfully. Definitely will purchase more from them.

Monster cables are built more durable, with stronger connectors than other brands, that is why they call them monster cables.

This cable is very simple to use, and uses a small led light to indicate the frequency. It is also less than half the price of the more advanced cables that have come out recently.

It works fine with the iphone, (with the iphone in "airplane mode" i.e. phone part off).

I have broken 2 kensington fm transmitter products by dropping, spills etc, but this cable has lasted over a year including travel and still works fine.

It has above average signal strength.

I bought this for a road trip in Tennessee, we wound up wanting to try on a short trip to NJ from Brooklyn. Worked like a charm. Even though some of the reviews communicate that this doesn't work in urban areas, I can't think of a more crowded radio space than NYC, and it blew out the other radio stations. We only had one spot of static on a bridge, other than that-- clear as a bell.....

Fantastic... love it.

Purchased the iCarPlay months ago and really haven't been blown away by its performance at all. I would have to guess the level of static you recieve all depends on your area, but I can't get a clear station anywhere in my town. Seems to work best out in the middle of knowhere or while traveling on the interstate. Went ahead and hardwired the Ipod thru an EXT on my cd player and that seems to be the way to go. Its a pretty easy install but even if you need to have it installed I would say its more than worth it.

It is an OK product. It does get somewhat static as driving around Washington DC area.

I like the icarplay very much. The only thing to make it better would be better reception. It is very neat and easy to use in my car while driving.

This is the 4th cable I have bought from Amazon. The first was for myself, 2nd for my sister and the 3rd & 4th were for friends! Everyone loves them and has had no problems with them!

It gets awful reception. I got better reception with a transmitter that came as a freebie with my iPod!

The icarPlay Wireless FM Transmitter could also be called iBoatPlay.
We purchased above item to use on our Sailboat while cruising Central America, playing music or listening to language lessons (while standing watch) or any other time! Simply plug said item in to an outlet, tune your radio to designated frequency, adjust your speakers to where you wish to hear the sound, and than enjoy. (I think that qualifies as a: "1-2-3" installation unit).

I have been using my iCarPlay Wireless for about a year and a half now. I have had no problems whatsoever with the battery in my iPod as some have mentioned. The only problem I have is that the low end of the FM band is pretty crowded where I live and this often has me searching for a usable frequency. Some frequencies seem to work better depending on the time of day. I am getting a car in about two weeks that has an auxiliary jack (Yea!) but this product has been a reliable stop gap. If you are looking for a wireless transmitter, I would recommend this product, but remember- it is a compromise. A direct input is better.

Thi Icar comes with preset fm stations. Now that's nice in theory ,however, if those preset stations arent able to pick up a decent signal, you're basically screwed. You'll be able to sit there and switch around those presets but you're not able to search for other signals. Also, the presets are all 88.x something stations and if you live in an area with normal to heavy broadcasting, chances are that these frequencies are already in use.

This happened to me, living in miami and none of the presets were able to play more than 1 min of a song without interference from another station.

To add insult to injury, the thing broke within the first 24 hours I had it. Niice.

The lack of any channel selection isn't worth the cheap price. I ended up having to buy another product to meet my needs.

Quick, Easy, Reliable, and sounds good too. I've never had a problem with this. I originally had a Belkin one but it was a bad fit for my car and several others (hard plastic allows no flexibility). If I were to buy another iPod adapter I would buy this one again. I tried to go cheap the first time and it was a waste of money.

Love it! Has made my life so much easier and I've bought one for all of my family.

Uses the exisiting stereo system in one's car and sounds good when using an existing blank FM Channel. I appreciate the ability to program three diferent FM stations for selection, and to change the site location when in a different city. However, in any big city such as Chicago, one will find that there are no blank FM channels, and thus the sound from your iPod tends to be fighting with any adjacent FM stations. If the cable could use a stronger signal to over ride any existing FM signal, that would be beneficial.

Works pretty well but radio options are pre-set. I live in a large metropolitan area and still get some high pitched static regardless of which of the 8 options I choose. It is intermitant so not a huge problem - other than that it works great!

My iPod will no longer work even when plugged in. I've learned since this purchase that car charging devices will ruin an iPod battery. As you know iPod batteries can not be replaced. At least not the version I have. Find another way to play you tunes in the car.

I got this as a gift for Xmas and it says that its also a charger and it doesnt charge my ipod at all. And when trying to listen to music it sounds like im listening to an AM station. And sometimes even sounds staticky. When it works it works ok. But not as I expected. And since it was a gift and I already threw out the packaging I probably wont be able to get it replaced.
can someone tell meif this is compatible with the 2nds generation ipod. The new "RED" one. Maybe that could be the reason.
