Customer Reviews

It works about as well as other FM transmittors...not great.
Yes, it will transmit the music from your iPod to you car stereo. But will it equal the sound quality of having a direct connection? No way. This isn't really a criticism specific to the Kensington. None of these devices consistently deliver great sound. I have tried four or five different brands, in two vehicles, both with very good quality receivers and speakers. At best, you get sound quality that I would grade a "B." You tend to lose volume and dynamic range. And unless you live in a very remote area, you are periodically going to get static interference from other radio stations and maybe other electronic devices.

Bottom line, this is a nifty unit in the sense that it is so small and connects to the bottom of a Nano. But don't expect CD quality music. Also, if you have this unit connected, you are using the Nano battery to power the transmitter, and you can't connect a charger at the same time.

Best bet: Get a car stero with an auxiliary "line in." If you can't, you might actually get better sound with a Sony cassette adaptor.

Wireless, but not the best performer for the money
The wirelss capability was the reason I bought this transmitter for my iPOD nano, but it just does NOT perform the same as a the other trasmitter I bought that plugs into the 12V cigerette lighter for power usage (and iPOD charging). It seems that the Kensington transmitter, since powered by the iPOD's battery, doesn't have the same signal-punch as my iTrip 12V unit. Not that it doesn't work, you just have to find the right spot in the car (near the antennae or radio) that works the best.... the same is true for my 12V xmitter, just not as finiky/less sensitive to location. Also, with this wirelss unit, I only get about 4 or 5 hours of music-playing time before the iPOD dies. It cannot be charged while playing, so it means a short duration. One benefit would be if you want to bring a boom box to the park (no avail 12V source)... you could play the iPOD thru the boom box (or any radio). BUT-If you're going to use it mostly in the car, do yourself a favor and buy a 30-50 dollar 12V xmitter from iTrip or Monster... just better battery life (also charges) and signal performance.
