Customer Reviews

Blew My Mind
Totally surprised. Solid, great sound for a boombox, antenna works great, signal comes in pretty much anywhere. Built-in FM transmitter means you can leave it on the windowsill and broadcast to your home stereo. Kicks a#% for its size and price. Power knob turns on radio and boombox at the same time (nice) and also functions as volume knob, glows blue in the dark. In/Out for my Ipod, awesome. Best of both worlds. You really don't need a home or a car kit with this boombox (because of its FM transmitter). Might look weird, but don't be put-off. Speakers also rotate for customized sound distribution.

Plug and Play Sirius Boombox
The XACT XS025 boombox is a solid performer. It is not going to win any awards for sound quality or looks but it gets the job done and it does it well. If you want to bring your commercial free radio to a party, picnic or beach, this boombox will serve you well. I was surprised I was able to listen to satellite music inside my house. The blue lighted power/volume knob is kinda cool.

I like the fact that you can plug this boombox in or load it up with 700 D batteries (OK 8 D batteries - but it is pretty heavy). You can get about 4 or so hours of listening time with battery power. Good enough for a typical party. If you are going to an all-nighter, bring spares.

Pros - great reception, decent sound, AC/DC option, good battery listening time, cool volume light.

Cons - U-G-L-Y, heavy when loaded with batteries, clunky carrying handle.

Works well
The portable radio works very well. The sound is very clear and crisp. This is not your typical boom box though. If your looking for big bass your out of luck. I am very happy with my purchase. I can take it any where I want and get great music. I would recommend this product for people to buy!!!
