SiriusXM - Stratus 7 Satellite Radio with PowerConnect Vehicle Kit - Black

I had bought this a few weeks back, and absolutely love it! My bf and I travel a lot and it helps when you don't want to listen to the sane old same old. The deep tracks station is the best!!!

Works great! And comes with everything that you need to hook it up.

This is a replacement for my current model. I am very pleased with its performance

Had gotten same unit from Sirius as part of a deal when I turned in my prior car, the replacement had no Sirius, so this was their deal to keep me. I then decided I would like to have the flexibility to move this to my wife's car; moving all the attachment and wiring would be a pain, so there is a unit that contains the attachment and wiring (Powerconnect Kit). However, Best Buy was actually selling the entire unit for about $10 more, so decided to do that - the extra radio sits in storage "just in case" but now both cars have the installed mobile attachments and they work pretty well. Both cars actually have the Sirius "shark fin" antenna, so I decided not do the instructed deployment for the included antenna and just mounted it in the front windshield magnetically attached to a speaker grill. That works about 90% of the time. If this gets annoying, I may opt to have the Shark Fin wiring pulled to this Sirius Unit.

I drive for a living, and my vehicle did not have a SiriusXM receiver. I found this unit on a Deal of the Day sale for only $15. Installation is fairly simple and fast. For best reception, the wired antenna unit must be installed on the roof of your vehicle and run in thru the door to plug into the unit. However, I have found that it usually works pretty well to just lay the antenna on my dashboard. No service is included, but inexpensive intro offer for the first six months is offered on the Sirius XM web site.

I never really believed in paying for radio. I always thought that paying for radio was some sort of sin or something until a recent road trip that I took. The car we used had Sirius XM and I actually loved the content. Decided that when I got back home that I wanted to try it out for myself in my own car but didn’t want to invest a lot of money into a device. This device was a “deal of the day” on Best Buy’s website so I couldn’t pass it up. Installation was super easy. Fortunately I already had a FM transmitter in my car so I didn’t have to buy anything else. I called in to activate service. Took less than 30 minutes from install to using service. I would recommend this to anyone. Will probably be looking into upgrading the device in about a year though. If you don’t have an AUX cord in your car radio you will need purchase a 3rd party FM transmitter for this to work in your car.

My husband bought this because he just got a job driving trucks and wanted to listen to music without constantly having to change radio stations. He is not assigned to any particular truck, so he can't install it permanently. He just puts the antenna on the dash and it works fine. He plugs it into the aux and listens through the radio. You do need a Sirius subscription to listen to music.

This portable Sirius radio was on sale for $19.99; a very reasonable price for this radio. I'm very pleased with how the radio works and with the quick install into my vehicle. There was no added expense in installing the radio which made this purchase even better.
