The iTrip FM transmitter

The iPod has revolutionized the way people to listen to music all over the world. Although the iPod was not the first portable music player, it is by far the most popular digital music player on the planet. In fact, the iPod is perhaps the only music player that has accessories manufactured by third party companies. With so many iPod accessories available in the market, it can be difficult finding the right iPod accessories for your iPod. Here are few ‘must have’ iPod accessories:
The iTrip FM transmitter
The iTrip is one of the most widely sold iPod accessories. Not all car audio systems support auxiliary input, and the iTrip allows an iPod owner to ‘transmit’ music on a predefined FM channel. The iPod owner can then ‘tune into’ the FM channel that is being transmitted by the iTrip. The iTrip is manufactured by Griffin and Apple, and is a ‘must have’ when it comes to iPod accessories. The iTrip also has multiple broadcast modes to ensure greater quality and distortion free music.
iPod speakers
A large number of companies produce iPod speakers. Unlike other digital music players, iPod speakers are available in a variety of formats. Most iPod speakers are available in a ‘dockable’ format where the iPod is docked into the speakers, with the speakers on either side of the iPod. Like most iPod accessories, iPod speakers are compact and portable. Klipsch Audio is currently offering iPod speakers that sport a 3.5” aluminum woofer and .75” titanium dome compression driver and an 8” subwoofer.
iPod travel case
Irrespective of the make of your iPod, an iPod travel case is a must. Most iPod travel cases have separate compartments to carry cables, an iTrip and other iPod accessories. Make sure the travel case you buy is made from weather resistant materials and has enough space to carry all your iPod accessories.
iBoost battery pack
Instead of looking for the nearest power outlet or USB port, you can carry a battery pack with you when you are on the go. A battery pack is nothing but stored energy for your iPod. Using an intuitive interface, an iPod can be docked into the battery pack while keeping the playback going. If you are planning a long trip, the iBoost battery pack is a must.
iSplitter
The iSplitter is perhaps the smallest of all iPod accessories. The iSplitter is a ‘Y’ shaped jack that allows an iPod owner to split the output from an iPod so that two people can listen to music at the same time. The iSplitter has a gold plated jack for better signal quality and clarity.
iSkin
If you are bored with the way your iPod looks, then a look at the iSkin is a must. The iSkin is available in 9 colors and allows easy access to all outlets while protecting the screen and keys. Made from high grade silicone, the iSkin has a clear screen protector and also has small pores that allow your iPod to ‘breathe’ during extended playing sessions.
i-Station docking station
The i-Station is a one gadget fits all solution for any iPod. The i-Station comes equipped with portable speakers, a USB port, FireWire port and a charging port. An iPod owner can listen to music, synchronize music and recharge their iPod at the same time through the i-Station. The i-Station comes equipped with a sub-woofer, tweeter speakers and 3D surround sound processor.
Portable charger
Like the iTrip, a new iPod accessory is the iCarPlay Wireless FM transmitter. The iCarPlay allows iPod owners to play tunes from their iPod via the car audio’s FM channel. In addition, the iCarPlay also allows iPod owners to recharge their iPod through the car’s cigarette lighter. All in all, the iCarPlay is a fantastic solution for a long road trip.
