Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Background: I'm new to this iPod / MP3 player thing. I wanted to get my feet wet, so I recently bought a certified refurbished iPod Shuffle - 1st Generation for around $33 at the Apple Store. I'm so far happy with the Shuffle knowing it's limitations.
Reason for the ICEFM purchase: is primarily based on price. After reading reviews for other FM transmitters, the more expensive it is, the less likely there would be static. I really didn't want to spend that much especially since I have an original AM/FM CD player in my '96 Blazer. I'm sure with the best transmitter, there will be static in my car. I could have held off waiting for the nicer Kensington model (with full FM range and better quality sound) to go on sale and be closer to my price range, but I opted not to wait and bought the ICEFEM.
Review of the ICEFM: The setup was very easy. Click in the shuffle to the ICEFM, plug in the audio cable and place in cigarette lighter. Then tune my radio dial to one of the desired 4 presets. Bingo, I was in business. There IS background noise when there is "silence" or there is a low part in the song, but you don't notice it while the song is playing. In addition, when I turn the volume knob on my radio, it makes more static noise. The one odd thing is due to the way my car's cigarette lighter is situated. The Shuffle sticks out from the ICEFM and I have to maneuver the ICEFM so the Shuffle doesn't bang up against the dashboard.
Overall, it does what it is suppose to do, especially if your expectation is not perfection.
