Pros: Allows HD Radio iTunes Tagging. Very good reception. Dual alarm clocks. iPhone and iPod  compatibility. The Jensen unit’s remote control and integrated buttons are easy to figure out, and tuning of the HD radio is easier than competitors. Easy to use controls. Polk Audio I-Sonic ES2 is a competitor, but the Jensen system has almost as good  quality, for a much lower price. Good overall sound quality, but the sound is not “spectacular”, but considering the  price, the sound quality meets expectations. The Jensen is an extremely good value for the price. Reviews of the Jensen JiMS-525i HD Radio indicate it is a top pick for consumers looking for an affordable clock radio and speaker dock.

Cons: AM digital radio reception is poor. Nothing special design wise.

Comments : Jensen’s JIMS-525i antenna and tuner more intuitive and useful than the competing Polk’s ES-2. The Jensen enabled a user to automatically find HD Digital Radio stations on the standard radio dials without the user having to press a special tuning button.

The Jensen 525 deserves a high recommendation because of the great value it offers to those looking to test HD Radio, and the functionality it provides to iPhone and iPod users.
