Amazon.com Product Description

Wake to the sounds of your favorite iPod tunes with the Emerson iTone iC200BK clock radio. Offering a built-in iPod docking station and Emerson's patented SmartSet auto time-setting system, the iTone is the perfect bedroom, office, or kitchen stereo. The iTone's audio performance starts with its powerful amplifier and matching high-fidelity speakers, which combine to produce the type of high-quality, crystal-clear sound you'd normally expect from a much larger, more expensive audio system.

The built-in iPod docking station, meanwhile, lets you play any dockable iPod model-- including the iPod mini, nano, and shuffle--through the system's speakers. The docking station also automatically charges your iPod battery so you won't have to worry about running out of power. Most importantly, you can choose to wake up to any song in your iPod catalog every morning.

The iTone iC200BK is easy to use. The digital turner automatically scans the AM and FM bands and locks in stations perfectly with no repetitive fine tuning required. You won't have to struggle to read the time thanks to the 0.6-inch white LED clock display, while the integrated station presets (10 AM and 10 FM) make it a breeze to locate your favorite stations at the touch of a button. The radio frequency also features a dimmer control so you can clearly see your choices. And don't worry about bad overnight weather conditions short-circuiting your alarm, as Emerson's SmartSet automatic time- setting system automatically sets the clock to the correct year, month, date, day, and time the first time you connect the system to your AC outlet and after every power interruption. It even adjusts for daylight saving's time and leap years all on its own.

Because everyone has a preference when it comes to deciding when and how it's best to start the day, the iTone iC200BK's unique dual alarm system lets you wake up to your iPod, the radio, or an electronic buzzer that starts softly and gradually increases in volume to wake you gently. It also lets you program one or both alarms for weekdays only, weekends only, or everyday operation. The clock even includes a programmable 99-minute sleep-to-music timer with auto shutoff and a 99-minute nap timer that wakes you after a nap without having to change your regular alarm settings. If you need a little extra sleep in the morning, there's also a snooze alarm that you can activate by pressing the snooze button on the top cabinet or the remote control, or you can simply wave your hand in front of the "touchless" snooze sensor on the front panel.

The iTone iC200BK is flexible and versatile, offering both ease of operation and customization options. Thanks to the compact 13-key remote control, you can operate all the major functions of your system from across the room. And if you still want to use some of your favorite devices with the iTone iC200BK, you can take advantage of the included stereo headphone jack and an auxiliary input jack on the back panel, both of which make it a snap to connect older, non-docking iPods, MP3 players, and personal CD players.

The iTone iC200BK measures 13.5 by 8.5 by 6.5 inches and comes with a 3-volt battery.

4 out of 5 stars no problem.......2007-12-25

I've had the ic200bk for about 8 months now, and I haven't noticed any buzzing noise at all. Mine has great bass response and general sound quality. The only problem I have had with it is that I would sometimes trigger the touchless snooze and accidently turn of the alarm, and then go back to sleep, but I just covered up the sensor. Maybe Emerson put out a defective lot of them, but mine works fine and I would recommend it to anyone.

1 out of 5 stars Don't - Don't - Don't.......2007-11-14

I bought this item about six months ago. I thought it would fit the bill, boy was I wrong. First of all, you can never memorize the buttons, there are just to many and laid out terribly. I am constantly hitting the wrong button or need a light in order to see what I am hitting.

Secondly and most unfortunelly, instead of charging my IPOD it drains it. Now this may be a malfunction, but I replaced my IPOD because it kept having issues, well it wasn't the IPOD it was this lousy radio.

Don't - Don't - Don't buy this!

2 out of 5 stars Nice looking but poor features........2007-09-23

This doesn't have a tone control, or a stereo/mono switch, a remarkable oversight. There is usually less static in mono mode, but because this radio doesn't have this option, you'll almost always be hearing more static/noise than you want, unless you're always tuned into a very close station. Also, volume levels 1-15 are basically all the same, and even the higher ones aren't loud enough. It does have a sleep and nap timer with 1 minute increments, a highly desireable and rare feature, and also an input jack for non-ipod mp3 players, but the shortcomings I described don't compensate for this. I'll return this tomorrow.

4 out of 5 stars Just What I've Been Looking For...........2007-09-07

I don't know if they have "rev'ed" this item since the bad reviews were posted but I'm very happy. This is a $70 alarm clock with iPod dock and for the price it works and sounds fine. I've tried two other iPod clocks(extremeMac Luna and the latest iHome) and they both came up short. I have a few need for an alarm clock.

I want to go to sleep listening to audio books on my iPod
I have to have a gradual ramp up buzzer alarm.
The radio has to work reasonably well on AM and FM

The Luna was great but the radio was useless to the point of it not really being a clock RADIO. The iHome was better in that respect but you couldn't have an iPod connected and use the gradual alarm buzzer.

The only issues I have are the lack of a 5G dock (see review below) and the fact that even on the low setting the display is a little bright. This is a common complaint on iPod alarm clocks. I don't understand why the designers of these products can't get it though their heads that an alarm clock display needs to be really dim in the dark. Don't they test these things? Auto dimming would be even better so you can see the time clearly in daylight.

But I'm finally satisfied.

2 out of 5 stars inconsistent.......2007-08-26

after four months the power button on the top of the unit ceased working and the unit could not be turned on. Amazon sent a replacement even though it was after the 30 days .... the second unit remote sensor did not function... the third unit was received and set up and seems to be working - but it is only the first week... so although i thought it was a good value ... i have been disappointed by the quality of the actual physical product.
