 great product August 11, 2008
A. Wilcox (ny, ny)
very happy with the clock dock. the sound is absolutely amazing for the price, even turning the volume up high. much nicer looking and sounds way better than the ihome. remote works well. ipod fits nicely and there is an adjustable piece the back rests on. the brightness i agree is a bit too much. but the way i have it set up it doesnt bother me.

This is functionally a well thought out product wrt to being both a clock radio and an iPod docking station. The sound is most adequate, but not that of the Bose iPod dock station which cost about 3.5X. The adjustable back support is a nice add-on when pressing iPod buttons.
 Simple, Reliable iPod Clock Radio With One Annoying Drawback March 24, 2008

I was looking for an iPod clock radio for over a year. My requirements were specific, which is why it took so long. It had to have the following:
1. It had to be white in color.
2. It had to have dual alarms, since my partner and I don't always go to work at the same time.
3. It had to have decent sound quality. It didn't have to fill a room, but it had to be good enough to sound as good as desktop PC speakers or any other stereo clock radio costing $100.
4. It had to have a snooze bar.
5. It had to cost less than $150 including tax and shipping. Under $100 would be ideal.
Clock radios that met these requirements were few. The first-generation XtremeMac IPD-LUN-00 Luna Alarm Clock Audio System and this Sony Clock Dock were immediately the front-runners.
The first-generation Luna had chrome knobs on top of the unit, which always showed fingerprints. Also, the Luna radio tuner got poor reviews here at Amazon. Meanwhile the Sony had about the same audio quality, a better-reviewed radio tuner, and no silver buttons. So when MacXtreme released the second-generation Luna in black, with no white version offered, my decision was made for me.
I like Sony products, and the Clock Dock is a good example of a Sony device. Being made in china, it doesn't quite have the solid feel that the Dream Machine clock radios of the 80s had. But it seems durable enough. But then I found an annoying problem - the display is too bright.
The snooze bar is used to step the display through three brightness settings (low-med-high). But even the "low" setting is far too bright for a dark room. If you prefer to sleep in a dark room, with as little outdoor or indoor light as possible, this display will drive you nuts. Being a full-face "glow" display, it lights-up a room like a flashlight. I had to install a piece of fabric over the display to keep it covered most of the time (lifting the fabric only when I wanted to know the time). It is a poor solution, but given that I like all the other features, it is an improvised solution I can live with.
Now if only Sony had add a fourth step in the display setting: OFF. They probably thought that would confuse users. But really, if this uniit had the option to turn off the blue-green glow in the display, the Sony Clock Dock would have been perfect.
If you are looking for a quality, white, iPod clock radio and you DON'T need 2 alarms, then you have more choices. At the high end (over $300), the Tivoli iYiYi High-Fidelity iPod AM/FM Stereo System (White/Silver) is great, as is the Creative Labs Cambridge Large Radio with iPod Dock - White (CD745i). And in the more affordable range (under $100), the iHome iH6 Clock Radio for iPod (White) is very popular, as is the JBL On Stage II with RF Remote
I am happy with the Sony Clock Dock. I just wish it had the option to turn that display glow lamp OFF. One software feature. That's how close to 'perfect' this unit was.
