Griffin iTrip LCD Customer Review(s):


Summary: Pretty Good. Worked for me.
Rating: 4 (out of 5)
Comment: Going thru net reviews, found so many mixed reactions. Some great and some extremely dis-satisfied.

I am a happy customer though.

Have metal sun film on my car and that was a non-issue for me.

I am in India here and there are only 5 fm stations here. Tuned iTrip LCD to those signals. iTrip completely overshadowed those FM stations. Maybe the FM signals here aren't that strong or whatever.

There is a slight noise but it isn't irritating. Once you start enjoying the music, it just disappears. On slowquite music, it will be slightly audible .

I have read reviews that some iTrip users were not able to hear even faint sound from their car audio. This is a guess, but they just might have not clicked once the station they wanted to tune to was selected. You have to click the silver dial inwards once you select the station you want to tune too.

Got a battery life of 5 hours with some juice left (indicated so by the iPod battery indicator).

If your sensitive about the sound quality (audiophile). Do not consider iTrip LCD. The sound quality I would rate as good as any FM station .

My car stereo has FM signal strength indicator. On regular FM stations I have to pull out the antenna to get a strong signal strength. I placed the iPod+iTrip below the car stereo in front of the stick shift. I got a strong signal strength there. Could be because the wiring is concealed around that area. I suggest you experiment with the location within your car around the car stereo.

Hope this helps in your buying decession.

Summary: works okay
Rating: 3 (out of 5)
Comment: this thing works about as well as you'd expect. I live in a metro area (Salt Lake) that is pretty saturated station wise, so there aren't many available frequencies. That said I found one that worked adequately (107.1). If this is your only option, it'll work. Biggest problem I noticed is I had to turn the volume up too high on the radio, which makes static really annoying during soft sections of music, breaks between songs, etc. If you turn the ipod up lounder I found it sounded even worse. The itrip is supposed to adjust volume levels automatically, this feature doesn't seem to work very well.

You can find a decent car stereo online with an aux jack for about $80 at crutchfield, which is the way I'm going. The itrip works, but it makes your ipod sound like an am radio.
