 Great boombox, many options/features |
| Review Date: October 23, 2008 |
| Reviewer: Tristan B, CA, United States |
Ordered this earlier this week, at first I received an XMAS100 boombox. Amazon was quick to overnight me the correct XMBB1 though once I reported the error. This gave me the opportunity to check out both the XMAS100 and the XMBB1.
I have the Delphi XpressRC headunit to be using with this boombox.
The quick and the short is I prefer the XMBB1, here's why. It's antenna has a neat little setup so it can be sleekly mounted on the rear of the unit flush with the surface, or you can extend it the full 21 feet to put it near a window etc. The XMAS100 only has the plug and no sleek interface to store it inside/on the unit, so the XMAS100 in my mind is for more of a permanent setup location. Also the XMBB1 runs off 8 C batteries, or the plug, whereas the XMAS100 only runs off the plug. These two features make the XMBB1 very portable, can take it to the beach, park etc and its all compact with its antenna and running off batteries. The XMAS100 does have a remote, but many of the XM headunits you'll be attaching to this come with their own remotes anyways. The XMAS100 does look more sophisticated with its brushed aluminum finish, but the XMBB1 isn't too bad either. Also the price of the XMBB1 is 33% cheaper than the XMAS100 right now. They both have AUX in for connecting another audio source if you wish. The sound on the XMBB1 is great, as is the XMAS100, can hear the base and its very clear. Hope this helps you decide. |

I purchased this with my Prime account on Amazon and got it via next day delivery.
The boombox comes with the adapters for the skyfi2, inno/helix, xmp3, roadyxt and of course all the xpress tuners including the XpressRC, which is what I have.
The SQ is really good, which surprised me since it was on $99. The handle makes it very easy to carry from room to room or even on outdoor outtings. It comes with a home antenna, which gives good reception. You can use 8-C batteries, which in my experience depending at what volume you listen generally last at least 10 hours.
By the way it also includes an aux-input if you wish to connect an mp3 player ect. It has an headphone jack as well.
If you have one of these XM Radios above, then I'd certainly recommend this Boombox. |

| I am extremely pleased with this product. It has very good quality sound and is very easy to use. Overall volume and bass are great. I bought it for my parents (age 70+) along with the XM Express radio receiver and they love it. They live in an apartment building and I was worried they would have difficulty receiving a good signal, but they get a great signal and excellent quality sound. The boombox is so handy. You can take it anywhere and the antenna can either be stored right on the back of the boombox, or it can be detached with a fairly long antenna cord if you need to put the antenna closer to a window if the boombox is more centrally located in a building. The receiver dock is on the front/outside of the unit which makes it really easy to work the controls of the receiver without having to use a remote (again easy for the older folks). Definitely would recommend this product as an easy way to get satellite radio into your house and still take it with you if you travel. |
XMBB1 Great Buy

| Got my XMBB1 XM system today. Docked my XpressRC but couldn't get a signal downstairs and have no southern window. Took it upstairs and placed the antenna on a west window - got a signal, activated the system and took off. The sound is terrific and I'm picking up hundreds of stations. So, the radio is great-but, the antenna that comes with it is most likely not a "high-gain" antenna and the company is not responsible for my tall trees or how my house sits. So 5 stars it is. Now to get a high gain antenna or outside antenna with wireless receivers. I'd say anything under a $100 on this unit is a bargain, plus it's portable. |
great portable
