First Satellite Radio Receiver July 15, 2010
J.D. Surf
I should start by saying this is the first Satellite Radio system I've tried. I'm impressed so far. I've been less than happy with the local radio stations in my area for quite some time. I've been listening to MP3s almost exclusively for about 4 years now. It is very refreshing to have a source of music other than my MP3 library. I am happy with my purchase.
As for the receiver itself: It is pretty easy and intuitive to control. While this entry level receiver lacks some of the advanced features of the higher priced models, I don't really feel like I'm missing out on much. The only feature I would like to have that this model lacks is a buffer. There are not many tunnels in my area to cause loss of signal, but I have noticed that driving under a highway overpass does cause a brief signal loss which could be remedied with even a small buffer (would have given it 5 out of 5 stars).
The unit is well designed and I especially like the dock feature. I used the provided swivel mount and bolted it cleanly to an empty space just above my cigarette lighter and below my stereo deck. I used the aux port on the device and routed the wire into the aux in on the back of my stereo deck. I like the fact that the swivel mount base has holes already drilled in case you want to mount it permanently as I did. The double stick film that comes on the base mount seemed adequate enough (it was very sticky and solid all on it's own), but I tend to overdo things sometimes.
The installation was very easy and the wire attached to the satellite receiver was plenty long enough to mount at the top of my hatchback glass window. My car is fiberglass and the provided magnet obviously didn't stick. The only con (which also contributed to my 4 star review) that I found in the installation was that they don't provide you with a double sided sticky pad in case your car is fiberglass like mine. I had to go to a local hardware store and find an alternative to mount the receiver to my rear windshield.
I have had it installed for nearly a week now and have not yet found myself searching my local radio stations or even plugging in my MP3 player as of yet. Activating the receiver on the XM website was very easy and fast. I even found a promo code online for free activation (saved $12.99).
So, all in all, I'm quite happy with my onyX. It might not be the top of the line, full-featured XM receiver, but it is a far, far step above being stranded with what passes for variety and good music that's recycled day after day on the boring local stations I've been stuck with over the years.
Thank the Gods of Music for Satellite Radio.

The little radio that keeps on taking July 12, 2010

Stay away from this receiver. The cost of repetitive defective out-of-warranty replacements will become very expensive. Expect to replace every 6 months.

XM XDNX1V! Onyx July 5, 2010
Darryl Burton
Wow, I gotta tell you, I had been using the Rhoady XT (2 of them) since XM started service. My first Rhoady lasted 4-years. When it burned out, I purchased a refurbished one. That lasted 6-months so I would not recommend that too anyone. Given that I purchased a lifetime subscription when XM offered it (about $330), there was no way that I was not going to get a new system. I delayed making this purchase, researching, reading Amazon reviews etc. I am glad that I made this purchase. The unit is small enough for the car and large enough to read the stations in the home dock. It has easy to navigate menu features. Great color options to change on screen. It does not come with a remote control and I note that a number of reviewers have commented on this. That is true and is a real bummer because the buttons are a bit stiff to push. So if you're driving and attempting to change stations on your presets, that is an issue. One secret for those of you owned a Rhoady and have that remote-it will work on this unit. I had mine hardwired at Best Buy for about $99. 60 days since purchase and find myself still very happy with the decision.

Cigarette lighter adapter doesn't work with Saabs either June 6, 2010
K. Kilsdonk (Massachusetts)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

As the reviewer with the BMW discovered, the lighter adapter is too short to make a good connection in my Saabs. This is the case in both a 9-3 and a 9-5.

I'm not up for the dime trick because I use the lighter adapter for other things, so I'll visit You-Do-It Electronics and see if they can come up with something, another adapter or cut the end off and go for hardwire to the fuse box...otherwise it's going back.

Annoying, I guess these folks don't want to support European cars (even though my Saabs are actually GM vehicles ;)).

Lacks a few features June 5, 2010
G. Helt (Kansas)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Overall I am very pleased with this receiver. It would have been nice if it had come with a remote. The one that you can purchase does not control all features. It would also be nice if it showed the time and the ability to get sports scores and stocks. The color screen and chose of colors is nice and it is very clear. The lack of features does not out way the quality of the receiver. I would still recommend this as a nice entry level unit.
