Roady Xt Remote Control Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This remote is an excellent addition to ther Roady XT receiver. It reduces the frustation of pushing those tiny buttons on the receiver. But in the cold winter weather the remote will not function if left in the car overnight: until its internal battery warms up.

Directed Electronics SP3TK1 Sportster 3 Receiver with Car Kit for Sirius Satellite Radio Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Within the first year of my Sirius subscription I am having problems with my 3rd Sportster 3.

1st radio - power supply cord for car malfunctionedafter 3 weeks
2nd radio - Antenna began malfunctioning after 1st month
3rd radio - This one was ok for first 6 months however none of the buttons on the unit itself work now except for the knob which can only be turned.Without the remote the radio is useless.

I am happy with the subscription however I would definately buy any other brand of radio.Sirius dock and play radios are terrible.

Sirius SDSP5V1 Sportster 5 Dock and Play Radio with PowerConnect Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Good radio, easy to install.The Pros: can change colors for display, however, display picture is the same (with Howard Stern looming in the background).Comes with remote, which can be handy, depending on where you install the radio.Easy to see display during the day and at night, even with polarized glasses (some reviewers stated that this is not so).For reference, The Xact one I had before this had a blue display which was close to impossible to see during the day, in particular with polarized sunglasses.The Cons: the FM transmitter is a lot weaker than the one from my previous radio (Xact).Activation:The legendary bad SIRIUS customer service sure was confirmed trying to activate this radio.I bought this as the replacement for my old radio which stopped working correctly.All I needed SIRIUS to do was deactivate my old radio and activate this one.It took about 1.5 hours to get this fairly straightforward task accomplished, mostly because I was put on hold several times for what felt forever.Best tip I can give: IF YOU BUY A NEW RADIO AND WANT TO REPLACE YOUR OLD ONE WITH IT, CHOOSE 'CANCEL SERVICE' WHEN YOU CALL SIRIUS.Otherwise, you will experience the same odyssey I went through (I chose "CHANGE SERVICE"):You first get transferred to Bangalore (I assume) where you are told that they CANNOT swap your two radios (i.e. cancel one, activate the other).They WILL tell you that you need to first activate your new one, which (of course) they are very happy to help you with.They will try to upsell you (no surprise) and tell you that you have to pay an activation fee.And since I had two radios, I got a discount(lasting for how long it takes to cancel the other radio).I explained in the beginning what I wanted to do, but of course they just go through their script. After the activation I requested to connect me to the 'department' to cancel my other radio. Of course I was put at the end of the waiting queue, after a few minutes my connection was lost, so I called again and chose the "CANCEL SERVICE" option.After about another 20 min of waiting, I was connected to the US service site and told the person that I needed to cancel service on a radio.After logging in to my account the person noticed that I had two radios, so I explained what I wanted to do.The good news is that the person got upset about how this was handled and talked to her supervisor (again I was put on hold).She then told my that my activation fee for the other radio would get reimbursed and that my old radio was cancelled.I hope that this radio will last a few years so I don't have to deal with their customer service any time soon...

UPDATE: as of today (12 Nov2010) I still have not received my promised refund for the activation.

Sirius Slbb1 Sirius Stiletto Boombox Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)THis is a nice boombox for the Stiletto, looks cool, sounds good and is very loud with good bass. If you have a Stiletto1 do yourself a favor get the Slbb2 boombox for a couple extra bucks. You can use both the Stiletto1 and Stiletto2 with it, so when your SL1 kicks the bucket and they stop making it, you upgrade to the SL2 you can still use your boombox.

SIRIUS Stratus 6 Dock-and-Play Radio with Car Kit (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this to replace an Audiovox PNP2 radio purchased in 2004...after wasting tons of time and effort trying to make it continue to work properly. I had purchased three home docks and one auto dock for the PNP2 so I was not thrilled when it started to fail. I could not get consistient reception with the PNP2 even after placing the antennae in various places outside my home. I even bought an antenna extender so I could place the antenna on the roof, free from obstruction...no dice. I listen to Sirius all day long so reception problems were driving me nuts!

I ordered the Stratus 6 (with car kit) and a home kit from Amazon because they had the lowest pricing and free shipping. I only ordered one home kit to be sure everything worked properly. After spending a short time connecting everything to a receiver on the first floor I was ready to take the antenna outside for a test when, to my surprise, I heard music! The new antenna was pulling a signal from inside the house! I was completely floored and soon realized that the technology has been enhanced quite a bit since the days of the PNP2. I now keep the unit on top of an organ next to the receiver and keep the antenna curled up, pointing at a wall, and I get all three reception bars! Moving to another stereo in another part of the house is so simple that I don't even need to purchase additional docks. I wish I hadn't waited so long.

The car kit is just as great...I plugged the supplied 3.5mm to 3.5mm connector to my AUX IN, ran the antenna through to the trunk, and found a convenient spot on the dash for the dock. WAY better reception than the crappy PNP2 car dock!

I was able ot transfer my lifetime subscription to the new unit in about five minutes ($75 fee for that but worth it to call all the way to India for assistance ;-)

The blue display is so easy to read and the 10 pre-sets are adequate to get me around the dial quickly. Sound is stellar! I highly recommend this unit!
