Review of Fm Transmitter [Posted on 2008-05-05]
I found this fm transmitter to be quite good. I was skeptical at first since I already had a more expensive one that worked really good. I needed a second one though that didn't cost as much. I was worried that I would lose a lot of the quality of the higher price one. However this one worked out fairly well. The only drawback is that you have only 8 stations to select from whereas my other one I had the choice of the whole spectrum. However, so far one of the 8 has always worked and came in clear. I would say that it is very good for the price.

This unit worked well especially if you turn up the volume on your mp3 player all the way and down on the car radio.
Good for a few months [Posted on 2008-05-28]
I got this item in January. I was really pleased with the clarity in my area, only having to change the station occasionally. By the beginning of May, it started to play thru only one speaker. The wires had, apparently, come loose. If I jiggled it and set the Zune in a certain way, it would play fine. Now it doesn't play at all. I am really disappointed, but gave it a 3 for the fact that it worked well for 3 months!

I get a lot of static with this connected to my Zune in the car.
It was pretty cheap though, and it does work, just not as good as I would have hoped. I really need a new stereo that has an audio-in plug; this works through the radio, but does not sound nearly as good as a tuned in radio station. I got the Zune cranked up to 20, and my stereo louder than usual to get to my average volume. It sounds pretty lousy.
If your really gripping to get tunes going in your car or boat, go for it. If your looking for high quality, keep looking. This is mediocre at best.
Works for a good price [Posted on 2008-06-24]
I've had this item for about a week now. The product is very easy to use. Opened up the package, plugged it in, set to the right stations, and pressed play on my mp3 player. The reception is pretty good with minimal static. I also live south of Boston. When going under tunnels that's probably the most static I get in my area. My biggest complaint about this product is the low volume level it produces. It is about half the volume you would get from a regular station, so I have to turn my car volume setting fairly high to hear the song lyrics clearly. I've also noticed that the vocals in all the songs sound a bit lower than usual compared to the instruments. It could just be for me, but I get the same problem with an ipod shuffle and a sony mp3 walkman. So overall I think the price is decent for a Monster brand product, and it does what it's supposed to. I would've given 5 stars if not for the volume problem I'm experiencing.
Pros: Ease of use, illuminated frequency switch
Cons: Low volume output, possible decrease in song quality, have to remember to shut off your mp3 player to prevent battery loss.
