Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of iHome iH9 Alarm Clock Speaker System with Dock for iPod (Black)Customer Review: I-Home 9 Docking station Summary: 3 StarsI just bought this system about 2 weeks ago and some of the bads i don't like about it is even the antenna is moved away it still makes a buzzy sound is there any way you can get rid of it. The sound is ok I love bass not too much...
Customer Review: Great Clock, Bad Sound Summary: 2 StarsI returned this item a few days after I bought it. While the clock itself is nice, since you can turn off the backlight in several steps, there was something wrong with the sound.
When I put in an uncharged iPod, it was great. But once charged, no matter if I used the radio or the iPod, there was a constant rhythmic buzz. I thought this made it defective, but after reading some other reviews this seems to be a common issue.
I got a Sony ICF-C1IPMK2 Speaker System and Clock Radio with iPod Dock instead. No buzz, even better sound, and it even takes my 4th gen iPod. I leave that one permanently docked.
Customer Review: Fuzzy Sound Summary: 2 StarsBasically when the ipod is playing music there is a fuzzy sound bad quality i am sad.
Customer Review: Everything but radio is great Summary: 4 StarsThe iHome system is very easy to use and set up. It has wonderful features such as a sleep timer that gradually reduces volume over time, a gentle wake up with gradually increasing volume (and no sudden click as it turns on). The controls are very easy to use. The rotating wheels are similar to the early ipods. They feel a little flimsy, but seem to be holding up well. It comes with a remote control. My ipod fits snugly in it and it comes with adapters for any shape and style of mp3 player, including a cord for connecting any headphone jack to its line-in port. They were even nice enough to include backup batteries
My only complaint is that it mixes radio stations to the point that many are unlistenable. In my area 89.9 mixes with 99.7 - not even close on the dial! Since I mostly listen to books on tape and ipod music, this isn't a deal breaker, but if you want to listen to the radio, this might not be the best choice.
Customer Review: Great Sound Summary: 4 StarsThis product has great sound and handy features. The remote control, the pre-sets,and the dual alarms are wonderful features to have. I use this product as an alarm clock as well. The only problems I have with this product are that I can not get the sleep feature volume to go low enough, which makes falling a sleep difficult and the volume for the alarm buzzer is not very loud. If I could switch the two volumes I would have rated this product five stars.
