Amazon.com Product Description
The irock! 300W 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 irock! 300W into the headphone jack of your portable device, tune your radio to one of four preselected frequencies (88.1, 88.3, 88.5, or 88.7 FM), and crank up your tunes. The irock! 300W'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 by 2 by 3 inches), lightweight (2.5 ounces) irock! 300W is powered by two AAA batteries (not included). It 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 six-foot flexible antenna that folds into the irock! 300W to protect its plug when not in use.

poor transmission quality and difficult to swap around to different channels while trying to drive at the same time.
FM Modulators Never works fine January 19, 2007
I am not telling that this product doesn't works, but I bought 2 different FM Modulators and neither of both works acceptable. As my Factory Radio doesn't accepts AUX inputs, I rather bought another Stereo with an AUX input and it is the best well spent money in sound quality for my Ipod in my car. Specially if you like to listen music, better think in make a greater inversion and no to throw out your money with FM modulators!
Not a good design April 18, 2005

The iRock's sound quality is on par for most of these FM transmitters, they all sound bad. I was aware of the sound limitations when I bought the iRock, my big issue is the design and placement of the power button. It is set up in such a way if you put it in your glove box (or just about anywhere) you can guarantee something will press the power button and run down the batteries. Very frustrating. The iRock also limits you to only four station radio choices, 88.1, 88.3 etc. Since I live in Boston, a fairly large city with many, many colleges, those frequency are being used. So the iRock is useless for me when I am downtown. As soon as I get out of the city I'm fine. There has to be a better unit out there.
Fair performance, NOT great for iPod use December 9, 2004

Initially, I purchased the iRock to connect a CD player to my car stereo. Sound quality is very good, so long as you aren't in an area where broadcast stations use all the limited frequencies of 88.1 to 88.7 offered on the iRock. (Other products offer a wider choice.) Where I live, college radio uses 88.1 and 88.3, and NPR is on 88.5, with a strong signal classical station on 88.9, so NONE of the iRock's channels provides real clear sound. The connector cord, which fits into the headphone jack of the player, is also too long. It worked okay when I had a CD player, but now I have an iPod, and the cord is just annoyingly too long, causing the iRock's main pod to slide off the car seat and dangle to toward the floor, where gravity eventually causes it to detach from my iPod. What a pain!
works okay for a few weeks.... November 17, 2004

Hellos to all. My iRock worked fine for a few weeks. You might want to check for a clear channel to select from, it uses 88.1, 88.3, 88.5, 88.7. Southern Atlanta is problematic due to a 100,000 watt radio station at 88.5 but this is unusual. Apparently there is a bad design in the product that makes the wires leading out unstable and fragile After about 3 months the right channel stopped working, and soon I found myself constantly fiddling with the unit to try to get it to re-establish contact. It gets old pretty quick let me tell you. So if you wanna buy something that will last only a few weeks, you're making a great choice.
