Review on ๐ŸŽต Enhanced SiriusXM Wi-Fi Sound Station GDISXTTR3AZ1 by Jason Childs

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A great way to listen to SiriusXM internet radio channels

I bought this radio to listen to SiriusXM internet radio channels on a dedicated device rather than relying on a smartphone or tablet. This radio is very easy to set up and works very well. The sound quality from the built-in speaker is quite good, but since the device only has one speaker, the sound is mono. I wish it had two speakers instead of one to get stereo sound. This isn't a problem for me though as I don't use the built in speaker - I use the RCA line out jacks on the back of the unit to connect to an amplifier so I can hear the audio in stereo. The radio also has an auxiliary input and a headphone jack. I was also pleasantly surprised to see that there is a built-in audio equalizer that can be accessed from the on-screen menu. The equalizer controls the tone of the built-in speaker and headphone output - neither the equalizer nor the volume controls affect the RCA line outputs. 12V electrical system, you can do it very easily. And the last thing I would like to note concerns the Wi-Fi support of the device. Another reviewer said that this radio is not compatible with wireless routers that use WPA2 security. That is not true. Although the box says it supports "WEP and WPA security", a little research shows that WPA2 is backward compatible with WPA security. I have successfully connected this radio to various wireless routers that use WPA2 security with no problems. Overall I think this is a very good radio with a lot of flexibility. There aren't really many options for a dedicated device capable of streaming SiriusXM internet radio channels.

Pros
  • Compact Radios and Stereos
Cons
  • Some little things
