What a disappointment

      Comments about Monster® iCarPlay™ Wireless 1000 FM Transmitter for iPod® and iPhone™:

      Won't connect to your iPhone or iPod if you have a protective cover. Think maybe that should be considered in the design?? Many people use covers to protect their iPhones and iPods.

      At my own peril, I believed the good reviews on this product but found them WRONG!! The reception is terrible. Even when the signal begins by sounding good, within a minute it builds static in the background until it reaches the level of distraction. BUYER BEWARE!!

      Comments about Monster® iCarPlay™ Wireless 1000 FM Transmitter for iPod® and iPhone™:

      I purchased this product because it promised no cell phone interference. I use my iPhone in my car for music (which is great - you never miss a call or text because the music is too loud because the music quiets). While this is a reliable device for the native iPod app in an iPhone, I use streaming media - example: Pandora. After about 3 minutes of streaming music, this device goes into what can only be described as a power-saving mode - it stops transmitting the FM signal and a button must be pushed to get it to resume. EXTREMELY annoying. And to think I gave up another, less expensive, more reliable device for this one. I do never hear any audio interference from my cell phone transmissions, so, while it (for the most part) works as advertised, it fails to do reliably complete its primary function!

      the unit display died and is inorperable after several weeks of use. Now I am stuck using one channel, until last week the entire unit fails other than the charging aspect. Stay away!

        I bought this from my last trip in NYC 4 days ago...I was at the airport and a seller advised me to buy this instead of planning to install "in car ipod device" from Mercedes, which is the car i drive.

        I'm from France and can tell device is perfectly working with an accurate song on the car !!! Same song is reproduce in your car from the original !!! No loss of quality..

        I'd recommend this for those who actually care for quality!!!
        Peace

         SAFETY TIPS

        Important Monster® Performance and Safety Tips
        Listen Responsibly

        To avoid hearing damage, make sure that the volume on your music player is turned down before connecting your headphones. After placing headphones in your ears, gradually turn up the volume until you reach a comfortable listening level.

        Noise levels are measured in decibels (dB), exposure to any noise at or above 85 dB can cause gradual hearing loss.

        Monitor your use; hearing loss is a function of loudness versus time. The louder it is, the less time you can be exposed to it. The softer it is, the more time you can listen to it. Refer to the chart* below.

        This decibel (dB) table compares some common sounds and shows how they rank in potential harm to hearing.
        SoundNoise Level (dB)Effect
        Whisper30Very quiet
        Quiet Office50-60Comfortable hearing levels are under 60 dB
        Vacuum Cleaner, Hair Dryer70Intrusive; interferes with telephone conversations
        Food Blender85-9085 dB is the level at which hearing damage (8 hrs.) begins
        Garbage Truck, Cement Mixer100No more than 15 minutes of unprotected exposure recommended for sounds between 90-100 dB
        Power Saw, Drill/Jackhammer110Regular exposure to sound over 100 dB of more than 1 minute risks permanent hearing loss
        Rock Concerts (varies)110-140Threshold of pain begins around 125dB
        "....a typical person can safely listen to an iPod for 4.6 hours per day at 70% volume."
        "....knowing the levels one is listening to music at, and for how long is extremely important."
        From http://www.cbc.ca/health/story/2006/10/19/music-earphones.html
        Get the most out of your equipment and enjoy great audio performance even at safe levels.
        Our headphones will allow you to hear more details at lower volume levels than ever before.

        Use Responsibly

        Do not use headphones when it's unsafe to do so - while operating a vehicle, crossing streets, or during any activity or in an environment where your full attention to your surroundings is required.

        It's dangerous to drive while wearing headphones, and in many places, illegal because it decreases your chances of hearing life-saving sounds outside of your vehicle, such as another car's horn and emergency vehicle sirens.

        Please avoid wearing your headphones while driving. Use one of Monster's FM transmitters to listen to your mobile media devices instead.

        Learn how to establish a safe listening level and review other important safety guidelines from the Consumer Electronics Association at www.ce.org and the Deafness Research Foundation at www.drf.org.
