i use this tuner with my Onkyo receiver. Its easier than attaching a inno though RCA.
It got excellent reception. Displayed all of the relevent information. This product worked as promised. It plugged directly into my reciever. No need to place the antenna in the window.
Luckily Amazon customer service is awesome and they are taking the device back. Therefore it only makes sense to purchase the home docking kit and tuner if you don't plan on buying a portable receiver. I purchased the XM home docking kit and tuner under the impression I could use the tuner in a portable device as well as with my home stereo system. It turns out that most, if not all, of the portable devices out there already have a built in tuner and come with a home docking station. Thanks Amazon, great as always.
Is about the size of 2 quarters put together. The home docking station is required to use this unit and can be purchased seperately. I purchased this little unit for a Polk I-Sonic. This tuner can be moved receiver to another receiver that is XM ready. I believe this unit will work in automotive applications as well. I'm already an XM subscriber and can be activated online. The XM Mini Tuner is a must.
I even called back the next day just to make sure it was finally resolved, and that rep confirmed that I no longer owed anything. I call back and the rep tells me the same thing and apologizes for my inconveniences. This week I called 6 times, 3 of which I was promptly hung up on for no reason, and was told each time that it had been resolved. So then last month I start receiving COLLECTIONS NOTICES. I advised one of the reps to wait a week for the payment, payment was made. They offered me 3 months of free service to come back, anyone who cancels can get this by the way, and I refused. The week prior to it being turned off I started receiving 3 calls a day for payment.
I explained to the bill collectors I owed nothing and when offered to reactivate the radio I told them not to bother, at this point I wanted nothing more to do with XM. I call in and state I never reactivated my radio, thus I don't owe for reactivating my radio and the 2 months of service that would have followed. So hopefully this time it really is. The customer service rep told me that it would be taken cared of, 2 weeks later I get another bill. Back in November my account was turned off due to a billing issue.
This apparently has taken care of the issue, though I never received the call back. 40 dollars. YOU HAVE ONE MONTH TO PAY THIS BEFORE IT GOES TO COLLECTIONS. I called in and was promised they would look into it and call me back. 2 more months go by and then I start receiving a bill saying that I reactivated my radio and owe for 2 months of service and all the late fees that go with that. I have been a subscriber for 4 years.
The 3 calls a day continued for the next week, I was informed that it simply takes a week for your name to fall out of their automated system. Calls stopped for another week. The radio was then turned off and the 3 calls a day started up again. To anyone considering XM I suggest you just get an MP3 player.
