Delphi Boom Box Audio System for SkyFi/SkyFi2/RoadyXT Review

Just drop in your SkyFi2 and you have Satellite reception no matter where you go. Used it in a ski place in New Hampshire (no regular radio reception)- just took the antenna outside (it has about 20 feet of cable) - had great reception. One caveat - you have to make sure your SkiFi unit is firmly seated in the cradle that holds it to make connection with the plug at the bottom of the cradle. Didn't work initially until I figured that out - then no problem.

This boombox is awesome but it could be a bit louder. However, I love the boombox looks!

The antenna wouldn't pick up a signal, despite repeated attempts by an XM customer service rep to refresh the satellite signal.

I had a party in the park, and used the boom box for the music. Switched channels to fit the needs and it is plenty of volume to cover it.

Signal reception is the real shortfall of this type of radio, it pretty much must have a view of the sky to get signal but the long antenna cord makes it easier. I have found that the radio must sit near a window or at least get the antenna over to one and you will be fine. Bass response isn't all that great but for a carry around radio for working outside, beach, etc. it is just fine. It does have a faint hum in the audio which seems to be a common complaint.
