iHome iP88

Two slots for iPod

Specializing in accessories for iPod and radio alarm clocks, iHome offers in iP88 a model with two sockets. Is this a good idea? With two slots for iPod, iHome iP88 will (eventually) meet a couple since everyone can recharge his favorite gadget and eventually woken up by the music it contains. Obviously, you can also combine two devices you own … The downside, iHome iP88 is relatively bulky, at least in depth. His aesthetic we were not particularly impressed but it is obviously a matter of taste. The functions are very comprehensive and enjoyable use once you have understood the principles. In contrast, the FM radio does us little seduced by its reception capacity, the display also gives 200 kHz which is excessive in Europe.

Sound quality disappointing

Better be worth rather then rely on your iPod … Listening, without correction, it is rather in the basic clock radio with a predominant medium. By adjusting bass and treble and avoiding stereo system expansion, it improves the situation somewhat but it is impossible to obtain realistic stamps. The model is clearly not meant for amateurs in sound reproduction … In the background is very acceptable, but even if it can deliver superior sound rather long, better not ask him (in less if you have sensitive ears). Certainly attractive in its dual base for those to whom this provision will remove a thorn from the foot, the iHome ip88 unfortunately disappointing in sound quality delivered. As you know if it has importance to you and especially your ears.
