PICO FM TRANSMITTER FOR IPOD BLACK

Amazon.com

You've never before heard sound this great from an FM transmitter this small. The Kensington 33365 Pico FM Transmitter for iPod 5G and Nano (Black) plays your iPod wirelessly through any FM stereo--including a car stereo, home stereo, or clock radio--making it a great value for listeners who want to enjoy their favorite songs without headphones.

This ultra-thin, ultra-sleek FM transmitter includes such features as ClearFM technology for richer lows, crisper highs, and better stereo separation, advanced power technology that minimizes battery drain on your iPod, and the ability to select any available FM frequency so you can always find one that is free of interference. This Kensington transmitter even utilizes your high-resolution iPod LCD screen for easy viewing of station information, so you don't have to strain to make out a smaller, separate digital readout, and allows you to easily program in station pre-sets once you find your favorites. Best of all, the unit requires no cables, wires, or software, so playing your favorite iPod tunes on your home or car stereo is as easy as 1-2-3.

Compatible with newer iPods with a dock connector, the Kensington Pico FM transmitter measures 1.62 x 1 x 0.25 inches (W x H x D), and is backed by Kensington's 2-year warranty.

This transmitter works great. Very compact with no wires is a plus. Not sure why the other reviews stated issues with the transmitter as it has great sound and strength. I am using with a Nano 3G on my console and luckily have a clear station to tune it to. Very clear and although not CD quality the sound is very good for a transmitter. The progamming is a little quirky but once you have your station set it's not a probelm.

This tiny accessory offers a convenient way to use your iPod without wires. I bought this device to use on my Goldwing motorcycle and I can put the iPod safely in the trunk and it still transmits clearly to the FM radio. The sound is great for such a tiny device and tuning is easy.

If you need a unit-powered FM device, you're stuck with this one. Luckily you'll be stuck with a pretty decent unit.

Not as loud or as powerful as the Griffin iTrip, but unlike the iTrip this thing will actually turn on every single time you play a song. I don't know about your requirements, but that is a pretty big one for me.

It's small as all heck. I can even fit it in my ipod's case with it's headphones. Pretty cool deal, I like that aspect of it.

It's naturally not as good as Kensington's powered FM Transmitter, but it gets the job done when it needs to. I took away a star because it's not as powerful as it could be, but again, when it comes to ipod-powered FM transmitters you'll do no better than this little guy right here.

3.0 out of 5 stars It works about as well as other FM transmittors...not great.
Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2006

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.

I could get it to work, but the sound quality was very poor. This is the second type of FM transmitter I have tried - the search is on again I guess. I suppose with these things it is trial and error until you find one that works. I liked the fact that you could use this one with any radio, not just in the car, but I may have to resort to the "car only" type. If all I can hear is static, forget it.

This is the weakest fm adapter I used. (of 3 or 4 similar products) It's really sleek and easy to use but there is just not enough power to get a clear signal. Also, there's no volume control from the ipod end when the transmitter is plugged in.

5.0 out of 5 stars At Last an Ipod FM Transmitter that works!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 21, 2006
Verified Purchase
So easy to tune, no guesswork; so compact. At last I am rid of that infernal buzzing in the background. Lots of help available in the package, but not really needed.

I had to discard the other transmitter I bought due to constantly having to fiddle to try and optimise reception only to find that it would change half a mile down the road. My home tuner also shows a vast improvement.

This is the only one to buy, pay a couple of '£'s more Kensingto's gismo is the best.

liebe leute, ich bekam heute den kensington fm transmitter geliefert und ich war überrascht. nachdem ich schon diverse modelle (alle mit soundeingang über klinkenstecker und autonomer stromversorgung) getestet und die hoffnung schon fast aufgegeben habe.

design: elegant, klein, handlich

funktionalität: einfach in der handhabung

klangqualität: über den dock-connector viel besser als bei allen anderen lösungen. beinahe bin ich versucht, hier adjektive wie "glasklar", "sauber" oder gar "perfekt" zu schreiben... tu ich aber nicht, da es sich ja nur um meine subjektive meinung als laie handelt. (allerdings bin ich schon sehr pingelig, was soundqualität angeht)

wermutstropfen: leider ist der dock-connector beim NEUEN iPod nano (eloxiertes alugehäuse) versetzt worden und der pico sitzt daher nicht mittig unter dem gerät, sondern um 1-2 mm versetzt nach links. mich stört das kaum, solange er seine pflicht tut. :)

A piece of cake to set up and use. Even without reading the instructions, I was happily playing music through my car radio in seconds.

The only fly in the ointment is that it doesn't line up perfectly with my 2nd Gen Nano, but it's not enough of a drawback to warrant losing a star.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good transmitter.. seems better than the Belkin
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 25, 2008
Verified Purchase
I got this transmitter the other day and whilst it isn't perfect it is more than good enough for my needs. Sure there's a little bit of hiss sometimes but to be honest when a song is playing you can't even tell it's there and get it in a good position in the car and there won't be any hiss at all.

My only complaint is that it does always seem to activate when I turn on the ipod (nano 2nd 8gig) and I have to uplug it and plug it back in to get it to work. This is only sometimes, most other times I can press the button for it to start transmitting.. not sure if I'm doing anything wrong or not.

It is a shame that it doesn't come with a charger (you can buy a pass-through charger cable) as it does draw power from the ipod, just seems a bit cheap that you have to pay for the cable to charge the ipod up.

Anyway, good buy, much better than my friends Belkin one which is a pain to get right for some reason.

4.0 out of 5 stars Guter Klang, einfache Bedienung, plus eine kleine Macke
Reviewed in Germany on September 3, 2007

Die Übertragungsqualität des Kensington Pico FM Transmitter ist recht gut, auch wenn man natürlich keine wirkliche UKW-Qualität erwarten kann; ein leichtes Rauschen ist eigentlich fast immer hörbar (das hängt natürlich stark davon ab, welche Frequenz man gewählt hat und wie diese in der aktuellen Umgebung von anderen Sendern belegt ist). Das ist aber eigentlich bei allen Pico-FM-Transmittern der Fall, und von denen, die ich ausprobiert habe, ist der Kensington defintiv der Beste.

Die Bedienung ist einfach und intuitiv: einstecken, Frequenz auswählen, aufs Rädchen an der Seite drücken, fertig.

Ein Manko hat das Gerät aber doch: mein iPod erkennt den Transmitter nicht immer beim ersten Einstecken, so dass ich es manchmal mehrmals probieren muss. Etwas nervig, daher der Punktabzug. Im Großen und Ganzen bin ich aber mit dem Gerät vollauf zufrieden.
