HouseParty 24/7 iPod alarm clock

Gear4s new HouseParty 24/7 2:1 stereo system for iPods looks a little like a cassette deck. The product integrates an AM/FM radio (which offers excellent reception, although we'd love DAB), and has a 3.5mm line-in port. It also packs that all important...

The HouseParty 24/7 offers good sound, build quality and radio reception, but its remote control is quite complex.

Gear4 Houseparty 24/7

There are much better speaker systems around than this one

Weighty and detailed; great feature list; great remote

Rather rough sonic delivery, particularly at volume

HouseParty 24/7

There's an iPod solution for when you wake, work and relax these days, with DJ mixers for clubbing and Gear4's new iPod alarm clock/radio for the morning after.

Good sound, build quality and radio reception

Supplied instructions are too brief, remote control quite complex, not built for travel

If you are looking for an iPod alarm clock, do consider the HouseParty 24/7. Nice to look at and well constructed, it offers all the functionality of more expensive systems and delivers a good quality of sound. Setup should be fine for people who have...

Really good clock/radio

Couldn't be more disappointed

Straight out of the box I noticed things wrong with this machine. Firstly one of the feet had come unstuck and needed reapplying. The light was too bright, even on dim. Don't be fooled into thinking there is an alrm on this clock; there isn't. It will...
