    "Looks nice, but no dice"

    by MadRobin on November 2, 2006

    Pros: Small compatc unit; fits needly onto sony phones; no need for its own battery; pretty orange lights; flashing light can be turned off

    Cons: insufficient signal strenght; silly flashing light has no real purpose; does not work for stated purpose

    Summary: At first I thought my unit was defective. My car radios would not pick up a signal, no matter what frequency I chose. (Another brand FM transmitter worked fine in both cars.) Then, I took it inside the house, turned up the volume all the way and placed it next to a top quality FM receiver. The FM set crackled a little, but would not lock onto the signal. Finally, I tried wrapping the FM set's antenna around the MMR-60. That worked, although the sound quality was less than I used to get with the other brand transmitter. As a device for getting music of a cell phone music player, the MMR-60is useless.

    It does flash orarge lights when you plug it into your phone. The Sony manual says it sis supposed to pulsate when it makes a connection. I'm curious how an FM transmitter would know that it had connected with an FM receiver.

    I completely agree with MadRobin's review of this product. The MMR-60 is a complete waist of money. I set this on TOP of my clock radio, next to the antenna and it barely received the signal.
    In the car, it barely worked...with the stereo cranked really high, I received a crackly signal that sounded like a 1940's record playing on a monotone stereo.


    In short, don't waist your money or time with this thing.
