Product Review

The iWake clock radio allows you to wake up to your iPod's music. It also will power and charge your iPod as well.

Amazon.com Product Review

Tired of waking up to obnoxious morning DJs or depressing world news? Turn to the Memorex iWake clock radio, which includes a built-in dock that powers and charges your iPod. It's the perfect way to get your day started off on the right foot. Simply drop your iPod into the universal dock, which powers and charges your iPod 4G, iPod color, iPod video, iPod mini, or iPod nano 1G and 2G. Once docked, you have your choice of waking to your iPod, radio, or buzzer--whatever gets you in the mood for work or play. The iWake also offers dual alarm settings, so you don't have to reset the alarm once your partner or spouse gets up. And thanks to the line-in jack, you can also connect other digital audio devices, such as MP3 players or personal CD players, for out-loud playback.

The iWake's sound quality is enhanced by its SRS WOW enhancement system, which improves the dynamic audio performance of your iPod tunes. SRS WOW accomplishes this by providing a panoramic, three-dimensional audio image that extends the sound field in both the horizontal and vertical planes. In so doing, the technology lowers the perceived low-frequency response so that your ears hear more bass despite the small driver size. It adds up to an immersive, high-quality audio experience that fills any room in the house.

Other details include a slowly ascending wake-up volume, a sleep timer that lets you fall asleep with the music on, a super-sized LCD display, an integrated button interface with a prominent snooze bar, a full-function wireless remote control, a battery backup function (requires two AAA batteries), and a sleek black housing that looks great in any room, from the bedroom to the kitchen. The iWake clock radio measures 10 by 2.5 by 5.3 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a 90-day warranty.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too many gotchas for me, February 6, 2007

This unit was my second try at an ipod clock radio. My first, the iHome, turned out to only have 1 alarm. This one has two, so far so good. And, I think the iWake sounds better, too. So much for the good stuff.

When you read the comment from an earlier reviewer about the volume going up, you have no idea how bad it is. It is NOT gradual awakening over 60 seconds, it is the volume going up a notch every 5 seconds to MAX. So unless you put this right next to you, expect to be scrambling so the entire neighborhood isn't calling the cops. Memorex calls this a feature in their manual ("no need to set the alarm volume"). Haha, very funny.

Next, don't plan on putting the unit above eye level, or you won't be able to see anything but a nice lit rectangle instead of the time. The display is like the old black and grey LCD's that were very directional (although this one is well lit). Trouble is, there's no adjustment for the viewing angle.

My third gripe is the...Read more

I purchased the iwake for my daughter in November. Although it worked well for the first 3 months after that the buttons just stopped working. For instance you would place the iPod in the docking station and hit the power on button... nothing would happen. All of the buttons would not work. You could not set the time or anything. Please do not buy this piece of junk.

(1) The face of the clock is very bright, even on the dim setting.

It's like having a nightlight, so may be fine for a child's room.

(2) The alarm is a bit annoying, as it increases in loudness every five seconds. (Mine is across the room, so I have to hurry to turn it off)

(3) The worst complaint is that there is a high-pitch buzzing sound that comes from the unit-mostly the plug! It drives my husband nuts, so if you have sesitive hearing, it's not for you.
