6th ave electronics lies about their shipping dates. The site says 3-5 day shipping. However, it is going to take 8 days for my product to be shipped to my house. When I called 6th ave electronics they were very rude and offered no solution.

Have had XM service for over 3 years now. Recently had to get a new radio because I was told my old one may interfere with other radio signals. So, they talked me into getting the Onyx. I was very specific when I asked if it did what my other radio did, including play in my home portable unit. I was assured it did. Well, it absolutely does not. Nor does it have the same features as my old one. On my old one I could pause and rewind, this one I can’t. And it does not fit either my old car kit or my home kit, rendering the home kit useless and I had to reinstall a new car kit to use it. In fact, with the Onyx I have had nothing but problems with it since getting it. It turns off when it feels like, goes into demo mode (and then you can’t turn it off), the display reads either check antenna or check power supply, neither of which are at issue (have had it checked and installed profressionally). I called to get it replaced. Was told I would be put through warranty and they would handle it. Well, the call was dropped and I tried calling back (since no one bothered calling me) and this time I got someone who could not speak or even understand English very well so the call was never completed – again. To get to the end result, it is now over 3 weeks later, 5 phone calls (all done by me – they never call back!), 4 emails and a request for a supervisor and it is still not resolved! HORRENDOUS customer service, TERRIBLE CHEAP product and not worth the money or trouble.

Great product in every aspect. Super quick delivery, received it in about three days on standard delivery. Great price. As for the receiver itself works like a charm. I have XM and my old receiver Roadie XT would lose signal very easily. However with Onxy I have only lost the signal in the same two spots that I when had a car with XM Radio that was factory installed. As for the installation, it was a breeze. It took me about 45 minutes to run and tuck the thin cables from the back of my truck through the inside to the dashboard. I called XM and activated the radio. Within a hour or so was listening to a wide variety of music and baseball. Great buy.

Very impressed so far. For such a small antenna, which I placed on the trunk lid of my Honda Accord, it sure does get terrific reception. Installation took me about 3 hours, mainly due to my placing the 23′ wire through the trunk, under back seat, and carpeting. I used the AUX connection instead of FM signal, which is what they recommend as a BEST method. I agree. Music sounds like CD quality.

I log a lot of miles between LA and San Diego and I was getting tired of switching stations and the poor reception on my AM/FM receiver. I had been considering getting a satellite radio for some time but the costs of doing so always held me back. Once I saw how affordable the onyx was, I was sold.
Listening to FOX News, CNN, CNBC, and commercial free music sure makes the driving and traffic a lot easier to handle. The reception is fantastic and setup was a breeze. I use the power connect option in my car which just means plugging it into the car’s lighter and you’re done.
There are different channel packages you can subscribe to and I chose to go with the lifetime subscription. That way I just pay one fee and I get to listen all I want forever! I even called customer service to make sure the subscription is tranferable to another unit. It sure is, so even if my radio fails, I can transfer my lifetime subscription over to another radio of my choosing.
