Overall, Tunewear s Stereo Sound Recorder isn t a strong enough fourth entry in the iPod voice recorder category to leapfrog any of its competitors.
Though there are reasons some users might initially prefer SSR over Griffin s iTalk Pro, namely Tunewear s inclusion of switches rather than on-screen menus, as well as a Belkin-like USB port for charging and synchronization, SSR s implementation of both features leaves something to be desired, and its microphone-based sound quality isn t very impressive.
That said, it does a good job when connected to an external audio source, and at least attempts to be aggressive in its suggested retail pricing. If you re shopping someplace that only sells iPod accessories at full MSRP, and using an iPod classic or third-generation iPod nano, consider the Stereo Sound Recorder a decent, not fantastic option.
With the fifth-generation iPod and second-generation iPod nano, it s a clear fourth-place finisher given the sound quality and functionality of other options that are out there.
