Good product for certain uses

I bought this product mainly because I enjoy working out in the garden or kicking back out on the patio, and want to listen to XM out there. Previously I was using a radio and having my Delphi XM2GO broadcast over FM. For me, these speakers offer a very nice solution. The speakers actually come with new dock, a new AC converter, and a new antenna, so you can keep your other set, set up somewhere else. When using this setup, it has the advantage of also keeping your unit charged.

The sound is decent, but I won’t over hype it. You get the sort of sound quality that you might expect from a nice radio of about the same size. Same with the power of it. Don’t expect to be breaking any glass by turning this thing up to ear-drum splitting levels. It aint gonna happen. If you want more of a hi-fi experience, definitely use the audio cables and plug it into a home stereo system.

The one big drawback to the system, like someone else mentioned, is that you can’t power the darn speakers via battery. Which means that its a whole lot less mobile then it could be.

Update (5/20/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen.

Great product
This desktop speaker just fits its purpose and is small enough to make
it fit in most spaces. The inclusion of plastic fitted compartments for
different products make it useful for all uses. Thanks for the design.

very nice
I purchased this item since old time radio {CH 164} on XM is not available on line. It works very well for the purpose of listening to voice or music. with adjustmens of bass and voume sound is very nice for use as an alternate listening device to a stereo reciever. Do not expect room filling thundering sound but it is very good audio. More like a high end table radio. easy to use. attractive . This review applies only to the DELPHI xmtogo model reciever hook up. It will work with Pioneer or Tao model as well.
