The Belkin XM Boombox is a rugged high quality portable sound system. Hate to see it go out of production. I knocked it around in the truck from job to job , 4 yrs before it tanked, so was very happy to locate another unit. GREAT Sound--superior to the Audiovox. The original 12V power cord is the only weak link, but that is easy to replace.

The radio itself is perfect, however I have gone through two remote controls and several batteries and a couple of hours with customer service with Belkin & Amazon and nobody has a replacement unit (all out of stock)and was informed this radio may not be manufactured anymore. Too much of a headache to deal with anymore...

I am very happy with this boombox. It was more than I expected. It arrived in a timely manner and looks and works great. I also got a remote with it which I wasn't expecting It was a pleasant surprise. I love it and use it all the time.
I wasn't expecting much, but I figured the Belkin F5X007 would give me another way to maximize the monthly XM payment for using my Audiovox Xpress other than just listening in the car. First, it's bigger than I thought it would be - but more importantly, sounds much, much better than expected. This thing gets fairly loud with decent bass (bass & treble adjustments are made on the Audiovox Xpress unit using the included remote control). I can't address any battery life issue since I've only had it 2 days, but I don't plan to use batteries that much anyway. It'll mainly be used on the patio while BBQing & partying or hauled around inside the house - both times plugged into a wall AC. For other outdoor occasions, there's always the car's cigarette ligher socket to plug into. As expected, for indoor reception, it must be placed near a window; or place the unit wherever you want, plug in an external XM antenna that's run to a window, & you're in business. At any rate, it's well worth the money & highly recommended.
Admittedly I was not going to purchase anything made by Belkin, I was looking at the two boom boxes made by Delphi. I'm glad I could not find a Delphi in stock. This radio is great. It really looks a lot better in person than in the online pics. The sound is really great. Once I tweaked the base and treble it sounds awesome. The internal antenna is also really strong. It is nice that I can use a home antenna if I needed too though. The volume does a good job and is plenty loud enough to play outside. Even turned to the max at 30 the sound is pretty clear.
The only things I am not fond of is the AC power cord. It has a power converter(like a laptop plug but smaller)that is about two inches square. While listening to the radio it is not a problem but there is no storage for it on board the radio. It will fit in the battery compartment with a couple of mods to the battery door.
Anyway this is a great radio. Buy one.
