I have no idea if this is in the right place or not; apologies if it isn't.

I have an iHome dock/radio/alarm clock, and I like it in general, but the alarm clock doesn't wake me up. I really need something that blasts me with a startlingly loud noise, or else I sleep right through the alarm. Is there a decent dock out there (with radio functionality) that has this sort of alarm?

Dont' worry , try and get in to a pattern. Try and wakeup 30mins earlier every day. Keep water by your bed and throw it in your face in the morning. Don't drink late at night.

LOL
I don't think the OP was looking for sleeping advice.



As for a iPod Dock, I know SONY had this new one up which has a increasing volume option. The Alarm keeps getting louder and louder and louder the longer you ignore it. Unfortunately I don't remember the model number. I will try and find out for you...
 
I bought this iPod clock radio and it is GREAT! One of the best sounding products out for the price. It is also well built and easy to use. You can custom set the alarm for any volume. It will get VERY loud! It is kind of expensive, around $169 at most on-line retailers, but it is worth the money in my opinion.
