Was skeptical, but now I'm raving about the Sony HTCT100 Home Theater

I remember having a 5.1 surround system and moving from apartment to apartment... what a drag dealing with those rear satellite speakers! I heard about these sound bars and was skeptical, but hopeful. I have had my HTCT100 for over 5 hours now and have watched 1.5 movies and played my XBox 360 and can honestly say that I am impressed! The best example of what I mean comes from "Black Hawk Down" where a helicopter comes flying from the background towards the viewer (imagine a clock lying flat... the flight path was from 1:00 towards 7:00). Not only is BHD one of my favorite movies, but it also won an Oscar for its Sound, so I knew this would be a good test. The helicopter's Doppler effect was perfectly accurate... the impressive part was when the chopper flew off-screen and the sound continued off into the distance behind me. At that moment I thought: "How the heck does this thing work?" Simple, yet truly amazing sound and technology... and with a price tag of less than $300, well,  more

iPod Nano 8GB

This is my 2nd Nano, but the larger screen and huge memory plus free games with the 8GB will keep me entertained for a long time. What a value! It looks brand new. I love the green (it matches my eyes!) Why buy anything any other way?
The only problem was UPS HAD to have an adult signature for delivery so that detail took three extra days to work out.

IPOD FM Transmitter

I purchased this for my daughter's birthday and she absolutely loves it! Great sound and easy to use. I feel safer with her driving her car and listening to her IPOD now that she has this transmitter.

Simple Product

While it is a bit on the cheap side of IPod accessories, it does what it claims to do: transfer data from your computer to your IPod shuffle and charge it. Though, I never really realized that the shuffle could take so much power to charge itself when not in use.

The Coolest Thing Ever

I love my "Funk It" Ipod speakers! I have used "Funk It" at a few gatherings & everyone wants to take it home. It's a great party starter. The sound & animation are superior! The only negative thing is that the turn tables squeak & after awhile that can be annoying, but turning off the animation feature stops the squeaking. Overall, this one of the coolest things I've ever purchased.

Altec Lansing BXR 1120 Speaker System

The product arrived promptly and in good condition. I am quite satisfied with the sound. The only problem I experience is that the control knobs on the front are too small and difficult to grasp. Larger or differently shaped knobs would be an improvement. For the type of music I listen to, classical, these speakers are quite adequate. Volume is more than sufficient. Tone quality surpasses what my ears can deal with.

as good as advertised

Works as advertised. Instructions a bit thin, but after I figured it out, it worked well. I like it most because of its compact design. No wires, etc all over the place. Cradle is secure and it fits in the power outlet very easily. Limited choices for FM stations, but it works great and the sound quality is quite good c onsidering its size.

Pink IPOD armband

This armband is a great value. I exercise with it everyday. I found the same one in a local store for three times the price. It fits snug on my arm and I can adjust all the controls while it is in the case. It is very soft leather and doesn't cause irritations on my arm. I love it.

Nice entry level Component Home Theater System with some flaws.

So far so good

It's been 3 weeks and I am enjoying this product. I am especially excited about the products that are compatible with ipods...speakers, clock radio etc.

Clear and Crisp

Griffin has always done a great job with their products. The AutoPilot has been an amazing asset to my car. Before, it was just the AUX IN and I would have to adjust the sound through the IPOD and the sound system of the car. With this, I can adjust the volume just through my sound system and it sounds amazing. I've always tried the radio transmitter ones and they just don't sound as good compared to the AUX IN. Charging the IPOD at the same thing and being able to hide it away too is a great thing. Also, the capability of changing songs is a lot easier instead of trying to find it.

ipod transmitter

this does not work! only transmits to one station and playes well for about 2 min then cuts off. happens consecutively and can only get it to "work" on that one station....do not buy!

Not happy

I bought this as this was supposed to be Apple certified.First of all, this has only four frequencies that you can tune into (88.1 - 88.7) . And the sound wasn

ipod cover w/graphics

This was a gift for my daughter. She selected the graphics. The item came within a few days. It fit her ipod perfectly and it was just as shown and what she expected. At this point we would order again. We couldn't really rate audio/video quality, because it is just a cover, not a player.

Great Product!

This is a great product! when ever i go on trips, i have to pack my ipod charger, ipod cables and an inverter to conver 12v to 110v for the ipod cable. now with this, i just pack one cable and we are good to go! we can now see our videos on the car monitors! i like the fact that they are long, and that the ipod is being charged at the same time. they will also work if you don't plug it in to the cigarete charger. Please note that this will only work for 5th gen ipods or older. will not work with ipod classic. well built.

Sound Vs. Size

I was a bit surprised to see how big the actual speaker was. I thought it would be way smaller for the price. But it's got excellent sound as long as you keep a fresh battery in it. It's a little awkward to use with my zune because it doesn't sit in the middle of the top of the player. I have to use a rubber band to keep it from popping out sometimes.

too big for me

These fall out of my ears when just doing simple chores around the house, I haven't bothered to use them for workouts- I don't think there's anyway they would stay in. The sound quality is ok, but not great. If you have bigger ear openings and aren't picky about sound, they might be fine for you. The Augen Puff headphones are a similar price, have much better sound quality, and are smaller.

Item didnt work

This item was corrupted & it came with a card that gave instructions on how to send back if techinicals problems so they are aware that these ipods might be corrupted then why sell them..Now I had to go through the trouble of packaging it & spednig money on postal to send back to repair dept. that was on card. Still as of today i havent gotten refund or a repaired ipod. VERY VERY DISSATISFIED...

Great Quality

I've been shopping around for a quality speaker/iPod dock for some time. I have hit the jackpot! The sound quality is high, not to mention the mini sub that gives the sound and extra oomph. Also, I love the versitility of this item that it can be taken outside without a power cord if needed. It is compact and the remote is a nice feature.

There are only two slightly negative reviews I can say about this speaker system. Just like other buyers have commented on, the clock jumps ahead four hours every time it hits midnight. However, I bought this for the sound quality and docking station, not to keep time, so it does not bother me at the least. I generally know the hour and the minutes stay right on track. (Every few days it's right!) The second is that when you turn the bass up too loud, it does fuzz a little. However, it may just be the quality of MP3s I have on my iPod.

Over all, I would definitly purchase this item again for myself or for others.

iPod FM transmitter

This is a great little transmitter, with a great price. Easy to operate and great that it charges your iPod! The major problem with it is that the weight of the iPod keeps making the transmitter tilt over, and the iPod ends up dangling from it. Also, you have to take off your iPod cover in order to place in the holder. It is frustrating to keep trying to reposition the iPod while I am driving. Needs some design work!
