Customer Review: Does what it is supposed to quite well
Summary: 5 Stars
Based on some of the reviews I read I was primed to send the unit back when I received it, but the IRock worked very well and I am enjoying the convenience. I hooked it up to my laptop, put it downstairs and was able to get good sound on the stereo downstairs, the one upstairs, and on my car stereo in the garage (2100 square foot house). 83.3 had some distant signal, but the IRock overpowered it no problem. It even overpowered the local NPR station on 88.7 as long as the unit was within 6 feet of the receiver. Driving around town with it hooked up to an iPod proved to be problem free as well. I have a hard-wired jack for connecting to my home stereo. I haven't compared the sound using both methods, but I'm sure an audiophile would choose the hard-wired connection. None the less, if you have been able to survive with FM radio all these years, I'm sure this will do the trick. I have read about modifying the antennae for more range, but even just draping a 3 to 5 foot wire over the unit increases transmission range. On accident I discovered that touching my headphone jack to the pin on the 12 volt jack of the unit increases the range and clarity even more.
Description of irock! Beamit Wireless Music Adapter (400FM)
IROCK-400FM, WIRELESS FM MODULATORThe irock! 400FM wireless music adapter lets you listen to any portable-music device over any FM tuner and speaker setup, without a clumsy or constricting cable hookup. It's the perfect way to simply and efficiently listen to MP3s, CDs, minidiscs, and other formats in the comfort of your car or living room. Just plug the 400FM into the headphone jack of your portable device, tune your radio to one of four pre-selected frequencies (88.1, 88.3, 88.5, or 88.7 FM), and crank up your tunes. The 400FM's operating range (limited by FCC regulations) is 10 to 30 feet, depending on environmental conditions and the quality of the FM receiver.
The tiny (1 x 2 x 3 inches), lightweight 400FM is powered by two AAA batteries (not included) or, in your car or boat, by the supplied 12V DC vehicle power adapter for hours of blissful music while traveling. The 400FM features a simple on-off switch on the front and a red LED that lights up when the unit is on. It comes with a seven-foot flexible antenna that folds around the 400FM when not in use.
