Rating  - Good for $25, not for $80.
I like this boombox, but expect what you get. It's only $25, and works perfectly with my XM. The speakers are nothing special and if you ever open this thing up you will find it it's a lot of empty space underneath, could be fun to mod.
The design is very sleek and much better than the other options I've seen out there. Easy to get everywhere and use :) The extendable antenna is very nice, but gets hard to keep on the back once you take it off the first time.
My only major complaint is that the box will not power my wireless headphones. Drives me crazy at work where all I want to do is eliminate wires.
For $25, it's a steal. For $80, it's a lot of fluff.
Rating  - My XM...on the go!
I'd been wanting to expand the coverage of my SkyFi2 for some time now... and with the INCREDIBLE price of $24 for the Delphi Boom Box, I couldn't hold out any longer. And once out of the box, I can't stop playing my XM radio. By the pool... to the beach... or just in my living room... my XM now goes where I go. And is no longer chained to my car.
The Boombox is stylish in design, doesn't have the greatest of power but is more than adequate for my needs, and is light and extremely portable (obviously). And swapping out the SkyFi2 unit is simple and effortless.
My only complaint is how the antenna cable is handled. I only have to unravel it when using it at home (since my living room doesn't get as strong a signal), but having to remove the battery cover, which is almost the entire bottom of the unit, and then manually unravel the cord from around the two pegs is VERY tedious, and quite archaic. Retractable self-winding cords have been around in our products for DECADES! So how is it neglected here?? Not only would it save space in the unit, 99.9% of the owners of this Boombox would love it 10 times more if they had included such a feature. As it is, I find myself with 20 feet of cord, lying in a pile because I'm tired of winding and then unwinding it over and over again as I take it from home to any other mobile use. Very annoying.
Overall, though... for all that it does, and at THAT price, I can not complain much. It does exactly what is expected of it... allows me to take my XM wherever I go, and make the most out of my monthly payment. Awesome. :D
Rating  - Great Boombox for the price!
As other reviewers have said, this is not a $300 BOSE radio system. It's a $25 Delphi boombox. The sound is very good for the price of the radio. It gets pretty loud and is great for indoor listening. Easily fills my bedroom with the sounds of XM. It looks great and can fit in anywhere in the home.
Overall, this is a great radio! I would recommend it to anyone who loves XM and wants good sound for a great price!!
