Not bad.......2007-05-15
I was wishy-washy as to whether I should get the unit with or without the remote and I'm glad I chose this one. The buttons on the remote aren't exactly easy to decipher but I just use the volume buttons anyway. Not bad for the price either. The blue light is a little annoying because it's always on but not a huge deal for me either.
Great dock for price!.......2007-02-02
This is a good deal at the low Amazon price. The only problem I had was the USB cable that came with the unit was defective. I used another spare cable and it worked fine. The remote is a little cheesy, but it does work. Some of the buttons have a weird symbol that takes some experimenting to figure out.
Soooo, overall this is well worth the price. It was compatible with my G5 60 Gb video iPod.
Inexpensive iPod dock delivers on promises.......2006-12-01
I was wary about purchasing this item because I could find no formal reviews discussing it online, and the price was too good to be true. (The Apple-brand version of this device costs $99.) Now that I've hooked it up, I'm very impressed.
It's sound and video output work exactly as described - and the quality is quite good to my untrained ears. The dock, while not very sturdy or heavy, is beautifully designed & contains adapters for almost all iPod types. And of course, your iPod charges while it's in the cradle. (Via power cable, USB cable, or Firewire cable -- all included.) The only thing not included with this device is a S-Video cable, but that's not necessary for it to work.
The remote has a futuristic look with a clear blue plastic rim that lights up when you press buttons. Unfortunately, its usability leaves something to be desired with small buttons in a non-standard layout.
This device does not have on-screen display of music information (ie. current track, artist, album info) or navigation choices when using the remote. So finding the right song on your iPod is nearly impossible without walking over to the iPod and using its scroll wheel manually. To get such on-screen display, you need the Griffin TuneCenter or DLO HomeDock Deluxe (for ~ $130).
In short, this is a GREAT product for the $29 I paid. I only wish I had bought it 6 months ago!
lousy sound quality, even at $43.99.......2006-07-26
I have returned this item to Amazon; I paid $43.99 when they had it in stock. The audio out on this dock is a stereo mini (1/8") jack, the connection is terrible from then getgo, with low volume, distortion, and noise when the jack is jiggled.
I would highly recommend the dock they're currently selling at Radio Shack for $29.99. It has RCA outputs on the back and excellent sound quality, it charges, and the remote has a menu button.

Amazon.com Product Description
The Polk RM6751 satellite speaker accommodates listeners who want to add a channel or two to their existing 5.1-channel surround sound speaker system. Specifically designed for Polk's RM6750 setup--which itself comes with four satellites, a center speaker, and a subwoofer--the satellite helps fill out the rear effects, creating a true top-of-the-line home theater compatible with the latest surround encoding formats. Each RM6751 speaker is equipped with a 3.25-inch polymer composite cone midrange driver that's lightweight and efficient, along with a high-performance 0.5-inch silk dome tweeter. Combined, the drivers create a clear, distortion-free midrange and smooth highs.
The speaker also employs the same PowerPort bass vent technology used in Polk's line of full-sized speakers, thus improving the lower midrange response. The result is a midrange with no "hole" between the satellite and the sub frequencies, helping male vocals sound rich and full rather than thin and weak (as with most other sub/sat systems). Meanwhile, the satellite's integrated baffle and grille design allows for maximum sound dispersion and minimum diffraction, letting everyone in the room hear the same clear, well-balanced audio.
The speaker is housed within a mineral-filled, non-resonant, white-finished polypropylene enclosure that not only sounds natural, but also looks great. To top it off, the speaker includes an integrated keyhole slot-mounting bracket for effortless wall mounting. And because the speaker is magnetically shielded, you can locate the speaker near the TV without suffering from video interference. The speaker measures 4.06 by 6.5 by 5 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a five-year warranty.

Polk Audio Satellite Speaker.......2007-11-14
We have a 6-speaker surround sound audio system in our family room. Just one of the speakers went out, so I found it on Amazon and ordered it. It came to us brand new, wrapped, and in perfect working condition. I'm thrilled.

There's more to high performance than meets the eye. Today, it's possible to enjoy high resolution sound from precision bookshelf speakers and home theatre surrounds, but the challenge is finding a compact speaker cable that maximizes the sound quality of these smaller high-end systems.

Its performance and size make it ideal for music lovers who want audiophile performance in a sleek yet functional design.Z1 features six bass conductors and several mid/high frequency conductor networks wound around Monster's patented Magnetic Flux Tube specially designed to control distortion-producing magnetic fields for better clarity and soundstage. Meticulously constructed using Time Correct windings, Z1 ensures that low, mid and high frequency signals arrive at the same time for smoother, more natural sound and improved imaging.Z1 incorporates Monster's famous MultiTwist construction, an ultra-tight winding of conductors resulting in enhanced sonic performance and superior noise rejection throughout the audio bandwidth. Combined with specially formulated PEX dielectric, Z1 offers incredibly low dynamic noise and startling realism in your favorite music and film soundtracks. You'll hear details you never heard before - from nuances in vocals and dialogue to high frequency detail like the rustling of leaves, to the low-end rumbling of the loudest explosion.Z1 offers exceptional performance in a smaller speaker cable designed for audiophile music and home theatre systems. It recaptures the full dynamic range of today's music while maximizing the sonic reproduction capabilities of your speakers. The neutrality, clarity and delicate musical balance of Z1 makes it one of the finest cables available in its price range.

Enjoy high-capacity AA batteries along with rechargeable convenience and fast charging times with Emerging Power's handy and potent EP-SC4 charging kit. The charger aims to be a universal source for portable power, so you can use it with AA or AAA rechargeables, either NiMH or Ni-Cd (the supplied batteries are NiMH). And, with UltraQuick smart charging, you'll only have to wait two hours between drained and fully charged batteries.
The supplied AAs are rated to last up to three times longer than their Alkaline equivalents, and you can charge them up to 1,200 times--so they're perfect for high-drain equipment like digital cameras, MP3 players, and personal digital assistants. The charger itself is pocket-sized for easy transport.

Battery charger, 4 NiMH AA batteries, and a product data sheet.

Excellent charger, batteries last a long time...but Sony is bettery.......2004-07-21
EDIT IN 2007: my company has switched to the Sony BCG-34HRMF4 charger, and I'm in charge of providing and charging batteries for 45+ office users. The Sony charger includes an easy refresh cycle (discharge/recharge) as well as four *independent* charging cycles, which means you don't have to do batteries in pairs. The Emerging Power charger is okay, but the Sony BCG-34HRMF4 is much better -- it has an easy, clear user interface showing percentage of charge (opposed to a few blinking lights on the Emerging Power unit), a simple refresh cycle (opposed to a poorly labeled switch on the bottom side on the Emerging Power unit), and the ability to charge one battery at a time. Overall I have to recommend the Sony BCG-34HRMF4 over this Emerging Power unit for any use!
OLD REVIEW:
This is my first Amazon product review, but I feel that this battery charger is worth it. I do tech support within a small office and we use AA and AAA batteries constantly. After some staff bought Bluetooth keyboards which use EIGHT AA batteries, I felt we had to stop tossing batteries in the landfill. So I bought this charger and several packs of Emerging Power brand batteries to see if they could really replace standard throw-away batteries.
Three months later, I couldn't be happier -- the charger is quick, the batteries hold an excellent charge, and the whole package is very small (the charger is about the size of a cassette Walkman). And no more throwing away batteries when they're done -- staff just drop them in a "to be charged" tray on my desk.
The one drawback on my model (EP-SC) is the switch on the back for discharge/charge mode. The charger has a discharge mode to deplete batteries, then charge them to full capacity (recommended once every three months for optimal battery life). The problem is, the switch is labeled "1" and "2" which is meaningless without the included instruction pamphlet. I wrote "charge" (by "2") and "discharge" (by "1") on my charger with a Sharpie -- problem solved.
Great Product.......2004-03-30
I purchased this charger and batteries for my digital camera and they work great. It charges the batteries very quickly and the included batteries last for a very long time. Highly recommended!
