Five Great Accessories for Zunes - Monster CarPlay Wireless Plus
(Page 2 of 4 )

If there is anything better than good music, it is good music played at a ridiculously loud volume.Monster, a company literally devoted to powerful sounds with dynamic range and clarity, has teamed up with Zune to create one mean, green listening machine -- well, it’s actually black, but you get the picture.Monster’s CarPlay Wireless Plusis an amazing accessory for anyone who usually suffers through a long commute, takes road trips or simply loves listening to music in their car. Monster’s CarPlay for Zune enables users to wirelessly listen to their Zune through their car’s FM radio while charging their device at the same time. This road trip-friendly device also features full FM tuning and three programmable “favorite station” present buttons, allowing users to enjoy their digital music no matter where they drive.
The system’s built-in digital FM transmitter allows great sound anywhere, and unlike some FM transmitters, Monster CarPlay Wireless can be tuned to virtually any FM station, so users get the best sound, free of interference. Often, car devices such as these are so complicated and difficult to figure out that they are hardly worth the trouble. That is not the case with Monster’s wireless Zune device. It is as simple as tuning the radio to any clear FM station, tuning the Monster CarPlay Wireless Plus to the same station and then hitting play on the Zune. Monster’s CarPlay isn’t as expensive as other FM tuners; at only $79.95, it’s an accessory worth looking into.
Premium Headphones

It could be argued that an MP3 device is only as good as its headphones. It doesn’t matter how many songs your device holds, how many videos it is capable of holding, how vivid the screen is or how intuitive the interface -- if you’ve got bad headphones, you’ve got nothing. The headphones that are included when purchasing a Zune perform well above average and are quite attractive, but serious music lovers interested in stellar sound quality should look into and consider purchasingZune’s Premium Headphones.
Zune Premium Headphones feature noise-isolating design intended to drown out everything but the player’s media collection. The headphone’s in-ear fit allows users to block out any external sounds. It comes with four sets of in-ear inserts so that users can find their best fit according to their unique ear-shape. Zune’s Premium Headphones are also characterized by their superior bass response, crisp highs and excellent balance, all fine-tuned to enhance the listening experience.
As small and harmless as headphones are, they are capable of causing a lot of frustration. Surely everyone has had the wire to their headphones tangle so badly that it basically renders them useless. That won’t happen with Zune’s Premiums. The buds clip together magnetically, keeping wires from tangling, and the headphone clip allows users to conveniently wrap their headphones for easy storage in their storage pouch. The $39.99 price seems like a small amount to pay for a premium listening experience; hopefully users will feel the same.
