Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com Product Description
When the iPod was first released, most viewed it as a personal music player for traveling, working out, or other "individual" activities. But that all changed when people started storing their entire music collections on their iPods and doing away with CDs entirely. Among the many product categories that emerged in the aftermath was the iPod-specific speaker system, which lets you listen to your entire iTunes library out loud but without sacrificing portability. The jWin I177BLK is the latest incarnation--a user-friendly, compact speaker system that looks somewhat like a clock radio (and functions like one, too), but stands ready to deliver deep, rich audio playback.

The powered system is outfitted with a dock on the top surface that holds many iPod models, including 5th- and 6th-generation iPods, iPod shuffles, and iPod nanos. The dock not only grips the iPod in an easy-to-access location, making it a breeze to find specific songs or hit shuffle, but it also charges the iPod while in use. As a result, you can remove the iPod from the dock right before working out and it'll still be fully charged, even after playing through the speakers for an entire afternoon. Even better, the I177BLK isn't restricted to the iPod, as it also connects to other USB-equipped personal MP3 players. Households with several personal music players won't be left out of the playback loop.

The system's audio performance is warmly satisfying thanks to jWin's Aura acoustic technology, which adds depth and clarity to the music reproduction. And even though the system is built for digital music files, it also includes a built-in clock, a dual alarm function, and an AM/FM _radio with PLL digital tuning technology. The radio makes the unit ideal for bedrooms, offices, and other locations where an alarm comes in handy. Listeners even have their choice of waking to the iPod, the radio, or a buzzer.

Additional features include a user-friendly backlit LCD screen, a precision volume control that ensures a comfortable sound level, a remote control for maximum convenience, and an external loop antenna that improves the AM reception. The I177BLK, which comes in a sleek black housing that measures 11.25 by 3.12 by 6.75 inches (W x H x D), is backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor.

What's in the Box
I177BLK speaker system, remote control, iPod adapters, external AM loop antenna, user's manual.

3 out of 5 stars Warning No Headphone Jack   January 8, 2009
Matthew B. Hansen (Grafton, WI United States)
In the product description it says "3.5mm stereo headphone jack." That is not true. There is an output jack but no headphone jack. If you plug your headphones in you will hear music from them but the music will also be coming out the speakers as well.


1 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money on this alarm clock   January 6, 2009
L. Clark
This alarm clock has been nothing but trouble for me. First of all, it always is behind on the time and I have to fix the time every two weeks or so since it gets off by 5 to 10 minutes. Second, the first one I bought was defective and the buttons didn't work. I should have taken this as a clue because when I got the second one the buttons worked for about 6 months and then went out and now only some work and only half the time. Third, after a year of use, it no longer plays my iPod, which is the main reason I bought it. I'd spend money on a higher quality unit since this doesn't work for the basic functions it is used for.


1 out of 5 stars iHate   December 31, 2008
Mark Townsend (San Diego, CA)
I just received this as a Christmas present. And it was even on my Christmas Wish List. It was something that sounded great on paper, but not in practice.

First of all, you can't attach headphones to this device. This is a very basic feature that I am finding it hard to find anymore on clock radios. It has a Line Out, but that is only for powered speakers. Because apparently someone might want to hook up their clock radio alarm clock to their stereo system???

Also, the display is very late 80's. It is a basic LCD display and the lowest light on the display still lights up the bedroom. So I have to turn off the back light and therefore can't see the time during the night!

AND, I used it to listen to podcasts on my 80gb iPod. It connected just fine and I could listen to the podcasts just fine, however, when I connected the iPod back to my Mac it told me the iPod was corrupted and I needed to restore the whole iPod!

Needless to say, it is going back as soon as possible.



2 out of 5 stars It doesn't keep the time   December 29, 2008
Manuel Camacho (Colombia, South America)
I have had this item for 9 months, I am going to buy another one because it doesn't keep time!

I have to adjust the time every month because it gains 10 to 15 minutes

Sound is good enough, but size is a little too big for me

Manuel



4 out of 5 stars Does the job.   December 12, 2008
Lorraine Barbosa
I sent this as a gift for my son who says it works as advertised and has a nice speaker system, too. He really liked it, so that's good enough for me.
