The BEST XM receiver yet? October 12, 2008 I tell you what, I used to want to get a new stereo with built in XM, but I don't think I'll ever find one that will do even 1/2 what this one will.
Pros.
1. The screen. Crisp, clear, clean, and MEANINGFUL! This screen shows everything for the channel you are listening to, AND it shows everything for the "last channel" you were listening to. You can set it to show what's playing on all of your "favorites". Absolutely perfect.
2. Major minor features. The unit has a "jump" feature to go back to the last channel you were listening to. Simple menus, simple settings.
3. Recording. I had one other unit before that let you pause the station you were listening to, and this unit does that but better (it keeps track of the last several songs, displays the artist/title of them), and you can easily go back and play what you want. This is cool and all, but this unit goes a step further. Hear something you like and want to hear it whenever you want? Fine. Hold down the main button and it gives you the option to record the song. You can have 10 songs recorded at once, and listen to them whenever you want. THis feature is hands down the best on the unit.
Cons.
1. Very minor, but the antenna and the power ports are on opposite sides of the unit. Makes wrapping and hiding the cables difficult.
2. The "fav" button is at the end of the 1/10 buttons. Makes you accidentally hit it occasionally while changing your stations. Also very minor.
3. The FM modulator sucks, BAD. I bit the bullet and hard wired my unit, with the unit only 1 foot from my radio, it could barely pick up the FM transmissions. Hardwiring is better of course, and I'm very glad I did it.
Overall, I can't recommend this unit enough. Amazing quality, amazing features.
Excellent Sound with Convenient Pause October 11, 2008 I bought the XpressRC because I wanted a reciever that had pause functionality. Now when I'm listening to something of particular interest and get interrupted, I simply click the Pause button. The XpressRC is a huge improvement in sound quality of my old Roady2. My only complaint is that if you happen to switch chanels, the buffer gets cleared. I've done that more times than I care to admit. A dual tuner such as what TiVo uses would have earned this receiver a fifth star. Another big improvement over the Roady2 is the ability to see what's playing on the other chanels (either the adjacent chanels or my favorites) without having to tune to those channels. The alerts seem like a nice feature, but I seldom use them. It's a nice receiver, but not worth paying retail price of $169.99. Shop around!
This is not a "Plug & Play" October 6, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
I cannot rate the product because I cannot use the product! The ad forgot to say that this product CANNOT work properly without additonal stuff! I purchased this product as a replacement for an earlier model that I purchased 3 or 4 years ago for the same vehicle that I had 3 or 4 years ago. I plugged it in, called XM to switch receivers only to find out that unless I purchase the special adapters, this receiver will not work. It will not "plug & play" ...ugh..... So, I went to my local audio dealer to understand the differences between the two options. The Sureconnect adpter runs additonal wires and the dealer told me that I would be back because of the poor reception, or FM switch box that connects to the back of the radio. I am now talking about installation! The plug and play only works if you radio has the input line on the front panel. ...UGH...
Terrific!!! October 5, 2008 This is everything I hoped it would be. Very easy to operate & great features. I especially like the artist alert, it will inform you whenever one of your favorite artists or songs are playing on another channel.
Just a great XM Satellite receiver. Big improvement over old models. October 5, 2008 easy to install in a car (and even move to other cars). very simple to use. stock quotes a big plus. favorite artist feature should be available in all satellite receivers. display is easy to read and can be formatted in multiple ways. antenna smaller and better than my old one. i would highly recommend for any road trips.
