skyfi2, audiovox XC59, Roady2, or XM commander
anyone have any of these units? from searching back through old topics looks like a lot of people recomended the skyfi2, and thats probably the way i will go, but i thought I would ask in case people had good experiences with other units. 11/3/2005 4:02:36 PM |

Just go with whichever's controls you like...they are all same performance wise...unless you plan to buy one today and hope that it lasts for 10 years. 11/3/2005 4:40:41 PM |

this going in your car and only in the car? why not just use it thru your deck...or upgrade your deck to one that supports it
remember you can listen to all your Sirius channels through the website so that *almost* defeats the purpose of getting portable units...depending on how often you are near a computer

upgrading my deck would cost more tan i want to spend
the only reason im doing this is cause its cheap and im tired of the radio stations around here 11/3/2005 7:26:24 PM |

Here's another vote for the Roady2. I'm quite fond of it. 11/3/2005 8:08:08 PM |

I'd go with the Roady or SkyFi2... but I like the SkyFi2 better because it has a better display and is easier to control 11/3/2005 9:18:23 PM |

if the skyfi2 was amber i would take it without thinking twice
i like that the roady2 has amber but the controls feel a little more clumsy 11/3/2005 9:54:30 PM |

Any particular reason you need amber? The SkyFi2 display is very clear even during the day; the original SkyFi was impossible to read during the day. 11/3/2005 10:43:45 PM |
