The only time I use headphones is while I'm mowing the yard, I have a big pair that drowns out the sound of the mower. I have this (http://www.amazon.com/iHome-iH26B-Portable-Travel-Alarm/dp/B000EA0DDK/ref=pd_bbs_6?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1194666780&sr=8-6) iHome in my bird room, it works well. It's not stereo quality, but it works for me.

Here (http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MA045G-iPod-Universal-Dock/dp/B000KBBKKI/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1194666927&sr=1-1) is a dock for $20 on Amazon.

thanks for the suggestion, i don't know why i didn't think of amazon. i'm the first one( human) up 6 days a week, and being very quiet while i'm doing the early am wake up stuff is a good thing. i'm listing the bose quiet comfort 2 on my holiday/birthday list, but it's very pricey, almost $200, but the sound quality is fantastic.

This is what I have for my Ipod stereo player:

It's cheap, but has AMAZING sound quality. I use it EVERY day! =) Hope that helps you out a little bit!

My parents bought me a Altec Lansing iPod dock that also plays the radio. I like it, it suits my needs. I'm not sure how much it is.
And as for headphones, I have those big sound-blocking headphones that you would wear when flying. I love them!
