5 out of 5 stars Excellent Product   July 13, 2008
I am not sure why there would be no so good reviews about this product. I have had it for over a month now and it does exactly as was advertised and the price was excellent Looks good anywhere and works great.


3 out of 5 stars Works fine.. could be better - Worthless Remote   July 13, 2008
It's a docking station. Enough said. It looks pretty good - the whole Sansa line does. It connects easily to my receiver. It recharges the unit easily. If that is all you need, it's great. Hence 3 stars.

But, here are my faults with it. One, the stupid useless remote doesn't really do anything for you... plus it NEVER stays in the "remote holding slot" ...

Operationally, two things bug me that I feel should have been engineered in as an integrated product (it works pretty much like a "universal" dock):

(1) The signal to the Receiver should be clean - not sent through internal sound/volume processing: (Is there an option?) For example, when I first turn it on, I have to remove it, manually turn up the volume on the unit, and replace it on the dock. It defaults to 50% volume on the unit, which forces you to turn the receiver to dangerously high levels (god forbid you forget to turn the receiver down before changing the source selector to 'Radio'!! Can you say blown speakers?) You cannot even adjust the volume with it ON the dock.. so again off...up..on! No matter what output source I use (stereo, computer, etc.) I am going to use ITS sound processing and volume controls! Stupid.

(2) When it is ON the dock (i.e. NOT battery-powered) it should have an option to keep the display on if the unit is on (similar to Palm/Pocket PC). As a result, when I shut off the stereo, the Sansa is still on - and I don't realize... it basically goes into sleep mode as if on battery power. So, to change the song you have to push a button to awaken the unit, and again to change the song.

And the remote is worthless....

In summary, it works, its good looking . but, nowhere near a flawless gem of a device.



3 out of 5 stars Sansa Docking Station   June 4, 2008
This unit was wasy to install and easy to operate. I am very happy with my purchase.


4 out of 5 stars works as advertised   May 29, 2008
As in the other reviews, controls are basic. First base station ordered the remote did not work. Sent back through amazon, second base received worked fine. Had to update software on Sansa player. Instruction OK fairly painless.


4 out of 5 stars Good product   April 15, 2008
Does the basic job no frills. I read many reviews before purchasing so there were no surprises. Does about what i expected for $50. If i wanted a better interface I would have spent the money on a sound bridge. But to answer a question that i read on a review: the difference between this and just plugging an rca jack is huge. This has an integrated amp so you don't have to work your amp so hard and the sound quality is greatly improved because it's a digital feed.
