XACT COMMUNICATIONS XTR3CK Sirius Satellite Plug + Play Receiver and Vehicle Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought mine 1/8/06 (Bestbuy, $29.95 on sale) and also bought the home kit at the same time ($49.95).Got home, went to the Sirius website, signed up for service and had the sweet sounds of their programming in my home all within 30 minutes.

I opted to utilize the built-in FM transmitter to link to my home theater receiver, and was satisfied with the sound quality.I got lucky with my antenna placement because the window closest to my stereo faces North-West, exactly where it needs to be for reception at my Florida location.

Running the antenna in my car was a bit of a pain, but it was worth the hour I spent installing it.Again, I use the FM link to listen in my car.

As for user features, I must confess to being one of those lazy people that learns a few favorite channels, then uses the remote to directly access them.Over time I may actually read the manual and program the pre-sets.

Overall, I'm very satisfied.The unit fits in my shirt pocket, and I use it every day.I don't understand some of the complaints from the other owners.All I know is that I wanted a cheap unit to listen to Howard in my car & home, and the XTR3CK with the XS052 home kit got it done for $80.00.The bonus of all the rest of the great Sirius music & programming lets me easily justify the monthly subscription.

Xact XTR1 Sirius Satellite Plug and Play Receiver Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First off, the XACT is a very nice receiver.I have owned a PNP2 and this receiver and I prefer this one.The XACT, while not wearable, is very portable.You can even buy the Powerpod and take it anywhere you go.The size of the receiver does come with setbacks though, there are only 10 S-Seeks compared to 20 on most of the other receivers.The screen is smaller (although very nice), and the presets require a little more work to set.The greatest thing though is the service itself.It is great not to hear any commercials, and the music streams are top quality.The Talk, News, and Sports are also great.Sirius recently added a Maxim channel, which is quickly becomming one of my favorites.Sirius's sports are great, I am a fan of football and there is nothing like hearing your team that is normally not carried locally.In the end I recommend this receiver and Sirius.
