Great Network-Ready AV Receiver
I've owned this AV receiver for a couple weeks now and am quite happy with its performance. I opted to network it by connecting it via Cat6 cable to an 8-port Gigabit network switch, which is then connected to a universal WiFi adapter that is connected to the 5-GHz band on my dual-band WiFi router. I have been able to stream Pandora, Internet radio (vTuner), and audio/video via AirPlay from my MacBook Pro with iTunes without issue.

I can confirm that the user interface experience is a bit dull (e.g. grey, no on-screen keyboard, etc), but it functions well enough, so I can't complain. I have other devices (e.g. Roku 2) with better interfaces that I'll likely continue to do most of my streaming from. The HDMI overlay setup menu is an independent mode, but I'm not sure why others are finding that to be a fault as I would not want a video stream to be playing in the background while I was trying to read the white text of the setup menu and make changes.

I was a...

Excellent Receiver
Okay so I received mine and have been using now for about 3 weeks. This unit is fantastic. Every feature it claims to support, it does in fact support. Sound from the unit is more crisp than other receivers I have used in the past (mainly Onkyo). I bundled it with a Polk audio RM510 5.1 speaker system for $450 on Newegg.com (a total steal considering the receiver itself is $400). It shows how to use the Pandora directly in the users manual, no internet searching necessary. I would hardly consider this an "incomplete product" because it has more features than I even bargained for, like midnight mode. Midnight mode is great if you live in a dorm/apartment and want all the dialogue loud in the movie but don't want the action scenes waking up your neighbors. If you are like me I used to watch movies late with the volume remote in my hand and constantly adjusted throughout the entire movie. Bottom line, this S. R. Lingala guy has no idea what he is talking about.

I have had my Pioneer VSX-1122-K for about a week now, and I love it. My previous receiver was a Pioneer VSX - 1021-K, and I had allot of HDMI handshaking issue's as well as a few other bugs that were very frustrating. Given all the issues I encountered with my previous receiver, I was hesitant to get another Pioneer. I am happy to say that I have NO issues with the VSX-1122-K at all! The handshaking issues are gone, and I have NOT encountred any bugs. The overall quality of the VSX-1122-K seems to be far superior to that of the previous model year. The Airplay feature is awesome and makes listening to my favorite music easy and convenient. The 2012 Icontrol application for the Ipad is very cool and allows you to turn up the bass or dilague during movies and TV shows without having to change any settings on the actual receiver. This model has a front HDMI port that allows me to hook up my HD video Camera without having to climb behind the TV stand with a flashlight. Pioneer...

Excellent product
I am a long-time owner of iHome-based products. I have had mixed experiences over the years... some good, some not so good. When I recently had my prior iHome clock-radio fail (prematurely, in my opinion), I was not sure if I would use iHome on my next purchase.

Well, I did some research on today's product landscape, and I settled on this iHome for several reasons:

- Good reviews across a number of sources.
- iHome as a company are keeping their products up to date.
- Some of the problems I found/experienced with their previous products have been fixed in these newer models.
- ** IMPORTANT FOR ME: This is one of the few Apple-compatible clock-radios on the market that still has an AM radio!

I have been using this for a few weeks now and am thoroughly happy. It works well, integrates properly with the compatible iOS apps, has good sound, and was easy enough to program (even without using the handy apps). I find the volume to be of good...

Happy with my purchase
I have had this little docking station/ radio for my iphone for about 3 weeks now and it is a nice little system. It is easy to use and there are apps that you can download that go with it. The sound is clear and has a good volume range. the remote makes it convenient and I like the many different levels of brightness on the illuminating face. I cant sleep with lights on and you can turn this one off or place on a low setting. The only thing I dislike about it is the FM radio antenna but this seems to be the norm these days. It does not have great reception but of course you have to kind of try and play with it to pick up the stations. I know these days a lot of people dont actually listen to live radio anymore lol but I do as my daughter is an intern at one. All in all this is a great buy for the price and I would recommend it to others.
don't waste your time
I should have listened to the other reviews on this site. The iHome iA9SZC was dead on arrival. I tried changing the batteries, different wall outlets, etc and the thing never turned on. It seems to be a pattern with iHome, read the other reviews. Alot of people have had bad experiences with this manufacturer.
The return process through Amazon was easy and fast.

Pyle Home PHIT84BK iPod/iPhone 2.1 Tower Docking Speaker System with FM Radio
The PHIT84BK is an innovative new tower speaker system from Pyle Home that works great with your iPod or iPhone. Simply cradle your device in the dock, and listen to your favorite music with high-fidelity, full-range sound - it even charges your device while it's docked. And this dock doesn't just sound great… it looks great, too, thanks to the elegant tower design that fits well in any room. Fill the room with sound from your iPhone, iPod, set up to 20 presets on the FM radio, or send video to your television using the composite video jack. You can also plug in any other audio player or audio source using the 3.5mm auxiliary input jack. And if you want to play your music on a larger speaker system, use the stereo RCA output ports on the back for expandability.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Love this
I just got my order, early by the way....I plugged it in and the system is exactly what I was hoping for. It works great with my phone (Iphone 3Gs) the sound is incredible. I ordered it because my hairstylist had an iCraig similar to this in her salon. I could always hear it above the dryers and the sound was great. They don't make iCraigs anymore but this looked so similar. I got it and the sound is GREAT. It plays with all my programs (Pandora, Ipod, and Spotify) The Bass is great, the remote works great. I have not yet tried to hook it up to my tv but I am sure it will sound great. It also came with a connecting cord for another mp3 player. Great product so far!
