Hi guys, I am having some trouble locating an AM/FM clock radio dock with a headphone jack that accommodates an iPod nano 6th gen. I have found a few but none explicitly states that it has a headphone jack (output of course) or any with images that show a headphone jack.

I'd like to use this on my nightstand as an alarm clock and to, obviously, dock my nano, but also listen to AM radio while in bed via headphones.

If anyone has seen anything that fits this description and could let me know, that would be a great help!

Thanks
 
Wow, 777 views on this thread and no one has responded? It's not like people didn't know the question since it is the tread's title... why did 777 people read it at all if you have no answer to the question? Lol Maybe I am missing something
 
I have this Boston Accoustics unit and it sounds awesome. It's a little pricy but if you want sound quality, it has it. The all-around touch snooze bar is pretty cool too. And, you can dim the display to your liking (not just high & low). If you want to know more, holler.

Price is a bit steep. I guess I forgot to mention I'd like to stay at or under the $100 range if possible. Thanks so much for the response, though. Were it not for the price it would be perfect for what I'm looking for.

I can't say why others didn't leave comments or suggestions ... only why I didn't. When I saw your post title, I was about to offer my opinions of the alarm clock/dock that I just bought. But then I realized that you wanted a headphone jack output ... not input. I've personally have never seen such a thing, so instead of polluting your thread, I didn't post.

I don't think the lack of posts is due to a lack of interest. I think it's more that no one really knows of any such products.

I really hope you do find something that fits your bill. If you do, make sure you update this thread so that someone else may find it useful.

Good Luck!

Thanks, I guess that makes sense, but 777 people, jeeze. Anyway, I'm still on the search. I actually did find one that fits the bill but people have said in reviews that it's not reliable (an alarm clock needs to be reliable) and makes a high pitched noise. I guess that's to be expected for $27 lol
