  • QuestionDoes my home antenna have to be in or by a window or will it work 10 or so feet from my patio door which faces south ?

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer The antenna needs to be either directly at the south facing window or door or often outside of the window or door. Many windows and doors have bug screens or metalized reflective coatings that will block the satellite signal. Placing the antenna a long ways inside and away from the south facing window will greatly narrow the angles where the antenna can 'catch' the satellite signal and risk the signal being completely blocked as people walk past the antenna. Extension cables are available so you can keep the antenna at the patio door and still have the Satellite radio a longer distance away.

  • QuestionI have Sirius in my car. I want to add a unit in my home. Do I need to purchase an additional subscription?

    Asked by curious.

    • Answer Your subscription includes streaming so you can use your streaming credentials on video products such as Roku, Firesticks, Apple TV and on Active speakers such as Sonos. Alternately, you can listen on your iPhone or Android all of these will accept your SiriusXM accounts streaming credentials. You can also purchase our SiriusXM Table Top Radio model number GDI-SXTTR3 from BestBuy, SiriusXM's estore and other resellers. The TTR3 uses your streaming credentials and has its own speakers or you can connect the TTR3 to your stereo. Or you can purchase a separate Satellite Radio with a Home kit to use at home but this option will require a second subscription.

  • QuestionWHAT ITEMS ARE NEEDED W/ONYX EZR RECEIVER TO BUY FOR HOME USE , WE HAVE SUBSCRIPTION IN OUR VEHICLES

    Asked by GREEK.

    • Answer Possibly the best option for use at home would be the GDI-SXTTR3. This is out tabletop internet radio which uses your streaming account already included with your subscription. This internet radio can be used anywhere around your home wherever you have access to Wi-Fi. Alternatively you could use the Onyx EZR with Home kit but this will require the included satellite indoor/outdoor antenna to be located on the south side of your home where it has an unobstructed view of the southern sky. Often this needs to be mounted outside of a window to avoid any metalized coatings on the window or metal bug screens which will block the satellite signal.

  • QuestionIs the onyx ezr compatible with docking station model sxabb1

    Asked by Booha.

    • Answer Yes the SXABB1 is compatible with the Onyx EZR

  • QuestionHow does this work

    Asked by Jim.

    • Answer The radio comes with everything you need to use the radio in your home. Just dock the radio in the included home dock and attach the antenna and plug in the included AC adapter. Then place the satellite antenna in a window with an unobstructed view to the south. If your window has metallized coatings or metal bug screen mesh then you will need to run the antenna to the outside so it can 'see' the satellites to the southern horizon. The Onyx EZR has line level stereo audio output so you will need the connect to a home stereo amplifier with RCA input jacks using the included stereo cable.

  • Questiondoes this come with 12 volt connection

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer The Onyx EZR with Home Kit comes with an AC power adapter that supplies 5volts to the Onyx EZR home dock. If you want to use your Onyx EZR in a vehicle then I recommend you get a SiriusXM universal Vehicle kit Model #SXDV3. This kit includes the magnetic antenna you will need for a vehicle as well a vehicle car dock with mounting adapters for vent and dash and a 12v power adapter that plugs into the vehicle dock.

  • QuestionIs it pssible to purchase an adapter for use in auto outlet?

    Asked by Linda.

    • Answer I tried to get this radio to plug into my surround sound system. Did not work. I ended up buying the sound dock speaker. To get music to my surround system, i bought a new Roku and got the XM Sirrus app. Now it plays on all the speakers. The auxiliary out is very limited. My car was XM ready. I pay for the car subscription separately. I know that is what you are trying to avoid.
