 Not worth it November 29, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this item because I liked the idea of a single connector to play and charge my Zune at the same time. I was not overly concerned about the quality of the FM frequency transmission, since I am looking to hard-wire to an aux input in my car soon. Needless to say I am disappointed with the audio output on this device using the Zune connector. The only way to get reasonable audio output was to use a 3.5mm cable from the Zune headphone jack to the aux input on the DLO. Using the USB connector, you get tons of electronic interference from the activity of the Zune (button presses, etc) as well as background static. This is going back tomorrow and I will resume the wait for a proper Zune dock for my car.
 Not great, but works okay November 1, 2007
There all kinds of noises if output from the line out. A work around is to use the earphone output to the line input of the unit....then no static and pulsing noise but the sound quality is between AM and FM. Not too bad...but you may save money to just use a casette tape input.

To cut to the chase with this one, do NOT buy it, by any means.
When I first bought it, I used it for all of 5 minutes before immediately going into a pissed off mood due to wasting $70. Every FM station you attempt will be filled with static. When you switch songs on your zune, you will hear the most annoying pulsing sound, that some say is the hard drive. Why can we hear the hard drive over the speakers? I have no idea. This pulsing sound also goes on when you are simply LOOKING through your library. I've had the sound go on for the entirety of songs.
Also, if you decide not to heed my warning, just know not to even attempt listening to your music with loud volume. The static will blow your ear drums. If you're driving on the highway, you either will have to close your windows to really hear your music (as if you even WANT to hear that garbage quality) or pop in a CD. I recommend the latter. This was a 100% waste of money as it honestly has absolutely zero value unless you have no cd player. I'd rather go burn 30 gigs worth of CDs than put up with this.
Hope that helps, hopefully it came with a manufacturers warranty or something. In case you read this while on LSD, I repeat once more, DO NOT PURCHASE.

Terrible sound quality July 30, 2007
So I purchased this FM Transmitter shortly after purchasing my Zune because I wanted to be able to listen to my MP3 library in the car. A co-worker has the DLO FM Transmitter for another brand MP3 player (not the iPod), and the quality is pretty good. Not so with the Zune. You'll be lucky to get AM quality sound filled with static and internal noise from the Zune itself. You can hear the drive spinning as a song starts...
I returned it within a day and purchased the Zune brand car kit, and while it's not perfect either, at least it's almost always FM quality if not better.
Should be better for price! July 27, 2007
I got one of these so I could listen to my Zune over the stereo in my Mustang. There was a lot of static and I had to turn the volume all the way up just to hear it. I returned it because I thought mine was defective, but it turns out it just is really bad for the big price. I went to Wallmart and got a MP3 cassette Hookup where I just plug it into the headphone jack and it sounds great playing through the cassette player, Which was only about $15.Griffin Direct Deck Universal Cassette Adapter for MP3 Players
