 So Glad I Didn't Pay Retail Price! January 11, 2010
CarrieB (Seated comfortably)
I bought this thing for about 20 bucks, and probably would've killed myself if I had paid the 60 or 70 dollars that it usually retails for. You're gonna think this thing's great if you live somewhere that's got 3 radio stations, but for the rest of us who live in a society, you won't get a clear signal. It's just like listening to the car radio back in the day, when your friend in the passenger seat had to determinedly work the knobs for you. This retro aspect appeals to me and warms my heart, but it's 2010! I expect and demand clarity!
An increadible waste of money November 28, 2009
Just a guy (Westchester, NY)
I hate this thing. It is complete junk and does NOT work well at all. If you live anywhere with more than three or four radio stations, you will experience inteference using this. Save yourself the trouble and get something that wires directly into your radio via cable or cassette adapter.
The fatal flaw is that you are using this in a car and moving through different transmission areas. There is no way you can stay on one station - any station - and not eventually have a problem.
The only reason I gave this two stars is that it charges your ipod.
Crackle crackle whineeeee October 10, 2009
greg g. (Seattle, WA)
This Monster starts strong and fades away.
The first month of use, no problems (other that it's hard as nails to find a "blank" radio station in Seattle).
Second month, the crackling starts creeping in, as well as a high pitched whine that follows the rev of the engine.
I put up with the whining and crackles for a few months as they got worse until the point came where I avoided listening to my iPod in the car! I'd rather listen to CD's than the piercing, crunching death of my music.
... And so my fading monster transmitter is now in the trash, and I'm once again looking for something reliable.
(wish me luck or send a suggestion)
 Monster Wireless Transmitter does not charge 4G iPod December 31, 2008

Monster Wireless Transmitter does not charge 4G iPod, it will transmit but when you plug it into the Nano 4G I get a message , unsupported device, charger will not work.
 Works Great, but NOT on iPod Touch Gen 2 September 23, 2008
Doug Buchan (Chicago)
This FM transmitter is the best, hands down, tested and proved. I used 3 others from different companies before giving in and spending the extra money to get the monster. We have one in every car now, a hefty investment. They work infinitely better than anything else i've personally tried or seen my friends use.
PROBLEM: I gave in an got the iPod touch Generation 2. I plug in the monster and the iPod says that the device is incompatible and will not charge the ipod. I have to acknowledge the warning and move on. Music will still play through the iCar BUT it doesnt charge the iPod. THis defeats the purpose of having a powered FM transmitter. This worked fine on my first generation iPod touch, but not on the 2nd gen. Be careful, I don't think anyone has anything out yet that will charge the iPod Touch Gen 2 AND play music from it at the same time yet.
If that problem doesn't effect you, I'd say give in, spend the money and buy it.
