 About as basic as it gets October 22, 2008
MW (Miramar, Florida United States)
This device works okay, but it definitely has major limitations. For example, you cannot set your favorite artist or song so that it will let you know when another station plays them. Even my 3-year-old Roady II did that. Yes, it sets 10 of your favorite stations, but you can't just go straight to one of them. You have to push the one button available (the middle one) and keep punching until you get there. Note that there are no 1-10 buttons on the device; again, even my old Roady II had this, which finally bit the dust and I had to switch. Looks like I'll have to switch again...this thing barely makes the grade. No wonder it's so cheap...as the saying goes, you get what you pay for...
 A major dissapointment! August 30, 2008
A. Maier
I've been a XM subscriber for several years now, and added this as a second unit. While I like the basic interface (keeping in mind that we SHOULD be keeing our eyes on the road!), I just about give up on the audio quality. Static is a major issue, and I am using the FM Sureconnect cable system.... and unlike my normal way of doing things - I actually read the manual (don't tell anyone!) to see if I did anything wrong and so on. br / br /It seems as though I can't find a true dead spot on my Alpine HU to no avail. It works until I start moving, then static due to interference comes back - change dead channels... then down the road, static once again. Next step is a direct connect cable. Meanwhile, I am paying $7/mo for a gadget that is setting on the freezer in my garage. br / br /If there was a remote control available, I'd swap it with the unit I have in the house. Overall I am very dissatisfied.
 THE radio for no frills XM July 14, 2008

If you're looking for XM radio at home or car, this will fit the bill. I use mine as a component to my home stereo, and I drag it out to the car for trips. It works well both places. It is important to note that XM service is equal no matter what receiver you use. Why anyone would buy anything but this model is a mystery to me. The unit has not broken on me, and it seems rather hardy provided you handle with care. One bad thing about this product is that it does not come with a wall adapter, which makes its home use prohibitive without purchasing one a la carte.
Great little XM receiver May 20, 2008

I just bought 2 of these: One for home, one for office, both to be used with a docking station. I have no complaints at all, except for the fact that you cant manually enter in the station numbers, like I can do on my roady. Other than that, I really like this product.
 Affordable xm unit that works well May 2, 2008

I have wanted XM for a long time, and I found that this unit may be inexpensive, but gives me the access and features I need. It has 10 preset favorites, bright lcd screen that displays artist and song (or baseball scores), built in fm broadcast if I'm not able to directly connect it to the car I'm in by auxilary jack, and fm sureconnect kit for better non aux connection. This also uses many of the Xpress family accessories such as the boom boxes, bonus (Altec Lansing XM3120 Docking/Speaker System for Audiovox Express and Delphi Roady XT or Audiovox XMB-10 XM Boom Box for Xpress XM7 Satellite Radio Receiver) br / br /There is some fuzz using the fm transmitter at times, but that is a hazzard of that feature if you are traveling. Utilizing the Sure connect feature virtually eliminates any crackle in the transmitter. In some cities the fm frequency are more clean than others, so that also effects performance also. Overall, the most bang for your buck if you just want access to enjoy XM.
