The sound quality is fine if you are not an audiophile. I don't know what a 7th generation iPod is or how it differs from the classic iPod, which I have. This product does not have an alarm function as far as I know, but then I didn't buy it for that, so haven't checked it out for an alarm function.

sound is great. only works with the generations that have the non- thunder bolt connectori think up to gen 4.

Sound is very good, not sure if it works with the generation 7 ipod, but I believe that it will.

Fussy About Clock Radios, If you are looking for an iPod that does not need headphones then I suggest looking out for an iPod Touch. As far as I know they are the only type of iPod that headphones are not a needed item, but the sound quality drops to only okay. iPod docks do have speakers. They also charge your iPod (depending on what type of dock). Some docks can even function as an alarm clock. I hope this helped. Godspeed! ~SWWPD

Yes. I like the clock radio. At first I was worried that the alarm wasn't super loud but it has not been an issue. Hope this helps.

Yes. However, there is an app it wants to download that supports an alarm, just ignore it, the download is not supported on iPad 1, for playing your music etc. it works fine. The app download request appears usually when I have unplugged the ipod from the dock.

I found all the settings the same way. I press and hold the Alarm A or B button, first I can set the time, pressing it again moves to where I can pick the Ipod or CD, the next features after pressing the button asks about volume and if there was a specific track I wanted to set it to. I wake to my Ipod at volume 8.

I am very sure this work work very well. In addition to a standard "iPod" input, this unit also has a separate microphone input which should work very well for you. This unit has two power setting - the default is 0.5 watt which is very powerfull - but if this high power mode interferes with some other electronics, it also has a lower 0.1 watt mode. I use it at home and LOVE it! I am also considering purchasing a second unit to bring with my Mom to her Monday Seniors meeting, and also bringing some pocket FM radios with small headphones so some of the ladies can easily her the leader calling bingo, and reading poems, etc. I am very sure this work work very well.

Sorry I never used the alarm on the stereo so I couldn't tell you. I use the alarm on my iPhone. Sorry I could not be of help to you.

It has a normal stereo plug. The type that comes with normal earphones. If your iPod can take normal earphones it should work as this device broadcasts whatever signal gets inserted

Yes, I don't usually use the alarm on mine, but I checked it out to answer your question. It starts quietly/gently and gradually increases in both sound and intensity. You can also get more info by looking at the users manual online for this model (Sangean WR-5). Page 29 of the manual states: "When the buzzer alarm activates, the alarm will start softly and gradually increase in level. It will sound for 1 min and silence for 1 min in repetition for 60 min unless cancelled." You can also wake to your iPod, FM or AM. I hope this helps answer your question. We have had our unit for over a year and it has been great! Yes, I don't usually use the alarm on mine, but I checked it out to answer your question.

I do not own an iPod, but, if the iPod has an awake alarm feature then it should. I use Pandora on my iPhone to wake me up. You just have to make sure the auxiliary is plugged into the phone (iPod) and the aux is turned on, on the clock itself.

Hi Amy, The alarm was loud enough to wake my husband and I up from across the hall, but my son slept right through it every time. We'd have to go wake him up. Quite honestly the alarm is so loud and so close to his ear I was concerned about hearing damage. You really don't want an alarm louder than this one. The volume is adjustable.

It should work great. I use it with my Samsung Phone and love it. Paired with the dock clock app this becomes my nightstand clock/alarm while I charge my phone every night. This is probably oversized a little bit for an ipod but it should work fine.

This speaker is compatible with all ipod's that have the 30 pin connector. (Except the ipod shuffle, which it doesn't sound like is your concern anyway...) If you were get a newer ipod that has the lightning dock, you're going to have to connect it through the aux (auxiliary) port which won't charge your ipod like the 30 pin connector will. This is actually a pretty good sounding speaker. It runs on plug in AND battery power which is good. It's a pretty nice consideration if you're looking for an inexpensive ipod dock and if you're able to find one on the Amazon Warehouse Deals, you can usually save yourself a few bucks. (That's how I got mine.)

The Griffin works great ! Just set it to an empty frequency, mine is 103.9FM. The sound quality is only as good as the speakers you have already. The IPOD will NOT sound as loud as your radio does, I think there is a built-in volume limiter, but it gets loud enough. I don't know if its the best bang-for-the-buck, but it keeps the Ipod in place and easy to control by hand. Your steering-wheel mounted controls will only adjust volume--thats all

I don't know - this unit stopped working last year. It was my son's and we found the volume was just automatically go from whatever setting to zero after about 30 seconds of playing. And you couldn't get the volume to change unless you powered it off & on again. BTW, he just got a iPod Touch 5th gen - and he loves it.

The users manual states that this system is compatible with the iPod touch 1st & 2nd gen models. I tried it with my 4 gen model and it does not work. Too bad because the system sounds wonderful. Anybody else have this issue?
