description not helpful enough 
2008-04-24
I read over a lot of boombox descriptions looking for one for my son to use his MP3 player with. This may be a great product but it wasn't clear to me that it was ONLY for Sirius products. I am not totally up on all the technology and new gadgets but not as ignorant as some. I read the info several times and could not determine if it was strictly for a Sirius product or not. It is ONLY for Sirius.
Satellite Boombox 
2008-02-24
I bought the Sportster 5 radio for my wife and I also wanted her to be able to use it around the house- not just in the car. This boombox looked like a good simple, plug-n-play solution. And it allows my wife to move her radio from room to room. It comes with 25 feet of cord on the antenna for convience but also wraps up neatly on the back of the boombox. The antenna thens locks into a slot on the top rear of the boombox.
We are able to get a good signal in the house without placing the antenna outside. That may depend on where we live. It seems to work better when boombox is not placed right next the window. We occasionally have to move the boombox around to get an adequate signal. But it works well and in places where I wouldn't think it could.
The sound quality is good- fm radio quality. The boombox has good frequency range and does not sound tinny.
The unit will operate on 8 D cells but I have not bought batteries yet to try that mode out.
The boombox is nicely designed and very attractive. My only dislike is the power cord. Its a little unwieldy for a portable type device. It has a computer like power cord- the adapter box with a short 120VAC wall cord and then a long low voltage wire that plugs in the back. I would have preferred the voltage conversion built into the unit so that the boombox could have had just a simple wall cord.

The product is very good. I enjoy it. The only problem with Sirius radio is that the reception is not very good. It is very unstable and goes from good to poor very quickly.
It all depends on where you try to use it! No Signal=No Music

The boombox itself is great and has worked awesome everytime I have a good signal. The problem will always be the availability of a good signal.
SUBX1 is Garbage 
2008-01-17
My SUBX1 does not receive the satelite using the supplied antenna. This thing is absolute garbage!!! Note that my receiver works fine in my car with a car kit. This a common and known problem - don't buy a SUBX1.
A great product if it works for you 2008-06-21
Reception-wise, it's hit or miss with this product, possibly depending on the area you live in. In my house, even in the basement, I get great reception without even moving the antenna from its mount on the boombox itself. At work though I had to carefully position it at a window to get decent reception (involving connecting a 50 foot antenna extension cord to it). Make sure you pay attention to the part of the instruction manual that says what way to point the antenna- I found it made a big difference at my office.
The sound quality is excellent. An equalizer would've been nice but it's really overall a pretty good stereo in spite of that.
HIGH WITH BOOMBOX 2008-06-10
I TOOK MY RECENTLY PURCHASED BOOMBOX TO THE COLORADO MOUNTAIN'S AT OVER 9000' AND COULD REACH EVERY CHANNEL, AND DIDN'T MISS ANY OF THE NASCAR RACE'S THAT WEEKEND. I WISH I HAD MADE THIS PURCHAES EARLIER. BUY ONE AND ENJOY.
sirius sub x1 2008-05-29
great lil stereo. sound is quite comparable to the sony disc player.. i like the battery option which last a long time. great to take on the boat or to the beach, camping whatever.....
no problems thus far. 2008-05-21
I have had no problems this this unit thus far. I am able to use it in my office and receive 3 bars 98% of the time. The only time I receive bad reception is during heavy rain storm.
The one downside to this unit is that there is no equalizer.

This boombox is fantastic! It's so easy to use and the sound is incredible. We also bought an auxillary cord from Radio Shack ($6) so now we can hook up our disc man and mp3 player to it. It even comes in great up in the mountains (with a little fine-tuning of the antenna)! I would definitely recommend this product. Can't think of anything I don't like about it.
