 As Advertised April 5, 2007
The other reviews have it pretty much right. The product is what it is. It is a nice way to hook your zune up to your speaker system rather than buy a very expensive boombox. Very easy to set up and gives you the added bonus of a wall charging feature. Good sound and not so good picture, which is to be expected from a 3 inch screen translating itself onto a much bigger one. The remote is small and functional, with a good setup, and I love that it is a magnet. The base is sturdy and the whole package in general is pretty slick looking. Overall, very functional, and a good companion to your zune if you plan on doing a lot of listening at home.
 I'm loving it. March 18, 2007
Works very well as advertised. I like that the remote control has a magnet for sticking it to the fridge. I was able to "teach" the remote commands to my Sony Remote Commander, so my Zune is now fully integrated with my home theater system! Charges when in the cradle. Sound is awesome. Video... hmm. not so great, but that's due to the Zune's poor video output and not the dock.
If you have a home stereo, don't bother buying one of those integrated Zune amp/speaker systems. Get one of these!
A/V is better than I imagained. March 7, 2007
I'm really happy with the A/V pack, it works exactly as advertised. My only gripe, and the reason why I only give it four stars, is that the sync cable it comes with is no longer than your standard sync cable, meaning that you have to set you dock fairly close to your power supply.
But something that should be mentioned is that all of the official Zune accessories that I've used so far have been of very high fit and finish, and the dock is no exception with far more heft than it at first appears to have. And the tiny details that are built into the accessories are just fantastic like, in this case, the magnetic remote...brilliant.
 Nothing great about the bundle February 22, 2007

Dock: I bought the AV pack mainly for the Dock and wall charger. The dock's A/V output does not work without power.
Wall charger: Does what it is supposed to do. supports 100-240v. So the same wall charger will work in US as well as Europe. I feel it is a bit bulky.
AV Cable: This is the best part of the pack. I connected my Zune dock to my AV receiver and it sounds great. Havent tried the video part of it.
Remote: The Volume controls works only with the center controls and not with the volume control buttons at the bottom. Is this just my remote or all the ones? So there is atleast 1 defective item in this pack.
Sync cable: Just a back up. I don't really need this.
Home AV Kit--Replace docking station January 30, 2007
4 out of 15 found this review helpful
I loved this home kit. It works great with the stereo and it is nice ot have the plug charge for traveling. The only down side is that the dock was a waste for me. I wanted a durable zune case that would look good and protect the zune screen at the same time. The Toughskin case does all three and is EXACTLY what I was looking for protection. The only down side to the Toughskin case is that the zune will not fit in this docking station while it is in the case. I believe that is an engineering problem of the docking station. This is NOT a bulky case, it fits the zune perfectly, however, even with removing the insert of the docking station, the zune does not fit the dock while in the case. Why they didn't make a docking station that would accommodate a zune in a fitted case, makes no sense. No one is going to want to take the trouble of removing a case each time they dock their zune. They should take these docking stations back from customers who feel as I do and replace them at THEIR expense with something that works! As for the Home AV Kit and the Toughskin case, I highly recommend both; the other cases just didn't seem to offer this quality of protection while also having a nice professional appearance. The rest of the Home AV kit is worth it. I am giving the Home AV kit only three stars because they need to get back to the drawing board on this docking station.
