Amazon.com Product Description
This Kensington FM transmitter/auto charger transmits your iPod tunes through your car stereo while simultaneously charging its battery, making it a versatile two-in-one bargain. The unit includes such features as red and green LED indicators that signal the transmitting and charging states, phase-lock-loop technology that easily connects with one of eight FM channel options, and ClearFM technology, which provides crisp highs, deep lows, and up to 50 dB of stereo separation. Adding to the topnotch sound quality is Kensington's patented Aerielle wireless technology, which ensures premium sound with far less background hiss than other FM transmitters. And even though the transmitter/charger is designed for the car, the transmitter portion also works inside the home, with a range of up to 15 feet. Compatible with any iPod with a dock connector--including the iPod nano 1G, iPod nano 2G, iPod mini, iPod 3G, iPod 4G (Click Wheel), iPod color, and iPod 5G/5.5G Video--the Kensington FM transmitter/charger is backed by a five-year warranty.

Transmitter first rate.......2007-11-08
I have enjoyed this FM transmitter for eleven months. I like the fact all the controls are right in the base to the lighter. It is easy to find your channel because the design of the frequency switches. With one click, you can go from 88.3 to 107.3. This has been a great addition to my IPod.
Does not work.......2007-09-04
No reception on any of the available frequencies. I live in a rural area with plenty of un-used frequencies and should have had no problem with the signal. It is a cheap piece of junk and I would never recommend it to anyone. I would give it a zero star rating, but it wasn't an option.
A great, inexpensive choice!.......2007-06-08
First of all, I am NOT an audiophile....I just run a stock stereo in my car, nothing fancy. This works very well for me....there is a slight hiss at high volume, but turn it down just a notch and it sounds fine. I didn't have a hard time finding a station at all. Overall, it was well worth the money I spent on it!
Great Product.......2007-03-10
I got this charger/transmitter as a present and I love it! I honestly feel like I "can't live without it!" The signal strength is great, it charges the iPod while it transmits, and it only costs slightly more than a transmitter that doesn't charge! I did wear this out after only one year of use. I would have bought a new one immediately but couldn't find this model in any of the local stores so I tried out several others and they just didn't compare. In the end I tossed the others and bought this one again. My husband just bought himself an iPod and I'm getting him one of these transmitters. We're very happy with this one!
Pros:
Charges AND transmits - my iPod battery is NEVER low!
Easy to switch from car to car - great when you have a car rental
good signal strength - expiremented and husband got clear signal 3-5 car
lengths ahead of me
cost - not much more expensive than a transmitter w/out charger
doesn't require batteries, plugs into the cigarette adapter instead
turns off when you turn off your car
The cord length is fairly long, allowing a nice radius for you to place
your iPod
Cons:
Wore my first one out after about a year
iPod turns off when engine shuts down so every time you restart the car
you have to restart your iPod, not a big deal unless you're sitting
around waiting for someone and you turn the engine on and off while
you're waiting - even then it's a small inconvenience
It's not easy to switch the frequency while driving
Only 8 frequencies to choose from (although that has never actually been a
problem for me, it could be for you)
Other:
Tried several different kinds - this def the best, better signal than any
other I have tried
Even after the transmitter wore out the charger still worked
Kensington 33159 Auto Charger and FM Transmitter for iPOD.......2006-11-07
It is very useful for charging but the FM feature I don't like a bit. Volume cannot be adjusted so the music comes out with a lot of "noise".
Product Description
The NAD CI 9060 is a 'clean-sheet design' six-channel amplifier engineered to meet the demanding requirements of the advanced custom installation market. It sets new standards for bulletproof reliability and sonic performance in the category.
Power, Power, Power Many amplifiers designed for multi-zone distributed audio are just not powerful enough to do the job properly. At 80 watts continuous power per channel, the CI 9060 boasts nearly double the power of most competing amps. This is very critical, because custom installations often demand that the signal be sent from one end of the home to the other. And the series resistance of long runs of speaker wire combined with impedance-matched volume controls can create special demands on an amplifier that the CI 9060 has been designed to overcome.
OMC to the Rescue NAD's proprietary Output Management Circuit (OMC) ensures that the full power is available at any reasonable load impedance. If the load impedance falls below three ohms, indicating that something other than a loudspeaker is connected to the amplifier channel, the OMC will limit the power flow and prevent the amplifier from overdriving or overheating. OMC not only protects the amplifier, but it also prevents loads attached to the amplifier from heating up excessively, an important factor when the liability of an installed system is a consideration. When the OMC detects a potential fault situation and begins to limit current flow, an amber colored LED illuminates on the front panel to alert you to a problem in the system. When the OMC is activated, the amplifier will continue to play without distortion, but the power level will be reduced to the amplifier channel that has the problem.
Built-in Absolute Reliability Every design decision, both electronic and mechanical, was made with absolute reliability as the primary goal. An auto-resetting protection circuit is part of the CI 9060's design. The fast-acting
