There's a saying that 2 is better than 1. When 2 can get together it's special. The new JVC NX-PN7 clock radio is very special. It accommodates two iPod players side-by side with its integrated dual-dock technology, charging them simultaneously and offering playback from each through the dock's speaker system. Supplementing iPod playback is an AM/FM tuner, and adding to the unit's versatility is a clock and timer. In addition, there's an analog audio input for connecting other devices for playback. Though the NX-PN7 handles two iPod players, it measures a mere 13 inches wide. It features sleek and sophisticated styling, with a black cabinet and speaker grille, and controls arrayed clearly and logically in a band along the bottom. Adding a bit of flair are two illuminated strips, one under each docked iPod. These can display one of nine colors - including white, blue, red and others. The included remote control features dedicated iPod control keys that simulate the iPod control wheel layout, so users are able to easily shuffle, repeat, scroll and select songs from the iPod menu. Back illuminated LCD Analog audio input lets you add other MP3 players if you don't have an iPod Remote Control (also controls iPod when docked) iPod Play Mode - Shuffle / Repeat Also works with iPhone Unit Dimensions (WxHxD) inches - 12 9/16 x 5 7/8 x 6 1/8; Weight - 5.8 lbs

Summary: Great For a Couple
Comment: My wife and I each own an iPhone and we always wanted a dock with speakers. It just so happens we found this one with a double dock. Now we take turns playing songs for each other. There is also a video out port so you can hook it to your television. I love this thing!

Summary: Great Buy
Comment: I love the sound and quality of this Audio System, setting it up was a little frustrating at first because you have to do it with the remote control but once you get the hang of it, it is easy.

Summary: Missing two critical functions
Comment: First let me say that the dual dock is awesome. I use this unit with my 3g iPhone and iPod Color. This unit has great sound, and good functionality. for instance, from standby, pressing the play button once, not only wakes up the unit, but also starts playing the last song played on the iPod, nice and easy!
However here are two critical flaws that no one else has mentioned.
1. There is no "Snooze" function! What kind of clock radio has no snooze????
2. Even worse, to use the wake up timer, you have to and I quote the users manual, " Turn off the unit (on standby)". On Standby the unit displays nothing but a blueish glow, THE TIME DOESN'T DISPLAY and can't display if you have a wake up time set. What???????
So just to make sure that you understand, when setting a wake up timer, (which this unit has 3 of) you cannot have the ability to display the time and have a wake up setting active. So rolling over in the middle of the night to glance at the time is not an option with this thing. How lame!!
Other than these 2 (in my opinion) huge functional missteps, this would be the perfect dual ipod AM/FM clock radio.

Summary: The JVC NXPN7 is a great product
Comment: This is a great product with amazing sound. I charge my blackberry next to it and you don't get that static like some units. There are 2 negatives ... the time display is too small and the time does not show when playing the radio or iPod ... you have select "display" from the remote to display the time instead of the radio station or the iPod that is playing. However the sound quality and ability to charge 2 iPods or an iPod and an iPhone out ways the negatives.

Summary: Quirky in some ways, but no other way to get two iPhones in one dock!
Comment: My wife has a 1G 16GB iPhone that she carrys in a leather belt holster. Nothing else we found would let her dock the phone without removing the phone from the case. Well, this one does: just leave the adapter out and cram the phone down into the dock.
Which brings me to my first complaint: for the price this should include a full compliment of dock adapters for the various iPods and iPhones.
The different colored lights are somewhat useful because it shows us clearly which dock port to use for each of our phones (hers in the case and my 3G outside of the case.)
The sound is reasonable for a clock radio.
I'm dissappointed that a lot of the functions have to be operated from the remote (sleep timer?) and that the remote is a cheesy "chicklet" type.
Would I buy again? I did! I got a second one for our second bedroom in the house...
