Customer Ratings & Reviews

I live out the boonies, and this antenna works great. My only issue with it is it should come with a coax cable. It does state on the box, that it doesn’t have coax. But most people don’t read the box. The sales person said it came with a short cable.

I've tried several different indoor antennas, I would get 5 to 6 channels after scanning, and don't let it rain, this became very frustrating for my wife and I. Picked up this antenna for BB, install/config, and voila, I picked up ~50 channels, I was astonished, so much so, that I ran the auto scan again to be certain. This antenna is the bomb.dot.com, and I highly recommend it as an indoor antenna option. I went directly to antennasdirect website this specific model is out of stock if that is any indication. Hope this helps to eliminate frustrations expereinced by others. Peace and blessings, Azeke

I bought the Indoor/Outdoor HDTV Clear stream 2Max OTA Antenna just to test it as an outdoor antenna. There was no doubt in my mind that it would not work as well as I wanted it to, and that I would return it. So I put it on my roof but did not mount it down and pretty much got the same channels I was getting before. I went back and adjusted the antenna slightly in another direction, rescanned the channels again and WOW!, I could not believe it, my channel line up went from 29 channels to 44 clear channels with no pixels. the digital indicator on my Yamaha 6.1 receiver indicated digital source and the picture and surround sound is incredible. Grant it , it is still Winter and the leaves are not on the thousand trees I have in my back yard, but right now everything is great. I am getting channels 60 + miles away. This Clear stream 2Max OTA Antenna for me is a keeper.

This antenna is very easy to hook-up right out of the box. Pulls in a great signal with better picture quality than the local cable company provided. It’s sitting on an end table in front of a large bow window. I have it positioned facing the towers in my area which are about 10 miles away. I returned the first antenna I purchased @ Best Buy. It had a built in amplifier and performed less than satisfactory.I Should have saved myself the inconvenience and bought the Clearstream 2 Max from the beginning. I get all the local channels and then some!

So, spending $80 on an antenna for Over The Air broadcast was a little off-putting and I went into this with high hopes, but low expectations. Upon opening the package I was actually a little worried as to its performance due to it's relative small size and seemingly weightlessness to it. It just feels like hollow plastic with a couple sticks that you can adjust (either up or down) on its sides. A feeble attempt to set it up indoors fell short of any channels, as expected. Not a single one came in. Lots of interference and I totally expected nothing. So, with a satellite dish already installed on the house from previous owners I decided to utilize the already installed mounting bracket for this antenna. Basically the same setup that comes with the 2MAX, but I didn't have to do the hard work, just removed the dish from the mounting post and placed the 2MAX in the same spot and faced it in about the same direction the dish was at. Basically pointed it towards the open part of the yard. Ran the channel search option on the Vizio TV (after running the antenna wire through the basement and directly to the TV) and after about a 3-5 minute scan I had broadcast TV! And way better quality than when I was a kid! I expected some channels to come in, but I didn't expect HD quality pictures, which include NBC, PBS, FOX and some other channels. A good amount to select from and all equally as good HD quality. I know location has a lot to do with it and relative distance to the broadcasting antennas, but if you've got those working with you then this antenna is a sure hit. Lightweight, easy install, extremely simply design. Just make sure you get yourself a long enough antenna cable if you have to install outside. I got the 50' wire for about $15 from bestbuy and it works great too.

This antenna is the perfect setup for really clear local channels.

Bought this and brought it home, ready to install and enjoy some tv. Nope... Product does not come with the needed coax cable to connect to the television. Installation instructions state that the cable is sold separately. Nowhere on the outside of the box does it say a coax cable must be purchased separately. Will be returning this and will never buy another Clearstream product.

This antenna works great! I was using one of those "paper thin" antennas and it would always cut in and out. This one picks up way more channels and doesn't cut out at all. Signal strength is excellent! I'm using this inside my house right next to the TV. Very excited about this antenna!

Yeah I didn't want to spend a lot of money, though buying this was well worth it. I no more than took it out of the box fastened the coaxial cable to the TV and to the antenna. Pulled up the arms, and set it/ wedged it a spot on a shelf. Turned on the TV/ settings/auto scan channels. Boom, double the channels of my previous flat leaf antenna. Boom Boom, all of them had picture/sound and of quality. I can say that I am in a third floor apartment, and have had trouble with a few different antennas this one is excellent right out of the gate. Also it's inside, though close to and outside wall. Now I will just need to fine tune a more fixed and permanent placement for it.

I installed the ClearStream 2 MAX antenna in my attic with a 4 way amplified splitter in my basement. I receive 43 good clear channels on 4 televisions without ever moving the antenna. I also use a stand alone DVR with its own built in splitter (RV in and RV out) which has it's own tuner for recording any of the 43 channels. This antenna is connected to 5 different television tuners counting the DVR. I can record one channel while watching another at the same time. I couldn't be happier with this antenna and its performance.

I have tried other antennas and had no luck with pointing and receiving all the channels in my area. Sometimes they were there and then they weren't. No matter how much i tried adjusting the antenna, I just couldn't get all the channels I should have been receiving. But with this antenna I didn't really even have to point it. I just roughly faced it towards the known location in Tampa and got all the channels perfectly. I am getting even more channels than expected, Scanned 65 channels in total on my first scan.

I was hesitant to pay almost 100$ for a tv antenna. I had been using the flat ones without good results and couldn’t even get our local NBC station. Resorted to Hulu live. Which was going up again and costing around 50$. Brought this home and it worked pretty good inside but still no NBC. Took it out to my screened in porch with cable out the window. Works perfect. Now get NBC. No pixels and when it stormed the other day and my internet went out I could still watch TV. Now just waiting for landlord to allow me to drill a hole for the cord to the outside. Well worth losing the Hulu live bill. Now just have regular Hulu, espn and Disney + for 12.99 a month!

Let me first say I own 3 generations of this antenna. I consider this to be the 3rd generation. All three generations look different and perform different. What sets this antenna apart is the performance in the vhf band. In Detroit all the networks broadcast in the UHF band except channel 2.1 Fox Network which is vhf. I could not get Fox. With this antenna I get Fox and all the other channels/Networks. **This antenna is a "Directional" antenna and Must be pointed in the general direction of the Broadcast Towers. Fortunately all the networks broadcast in the same general direction. Bottom line is I am happy. Enjoy free tv while you can because our government is taking it away in 5 years with the new tv standard with encryption and authentication not backward compatible with existing tv's. Bottom line is all the tv's and drv's will be useless. Enjoy free tv while you can. The FCC approved the change Nov 2017. You can Google it.

Bought this antenna to cleanse my spending. Dish was $90 a month.. So happy! This antenna pulled in all stations ( dependent on antenna direction. On the roof, I used the app, antenna point, before I committed to mounting. Watched a video about this Clearstream 2 and one other before rooftop mounting. Awesome! Disconnected my Dish, added a splitter to one other tv, and I am loving it! Experience level; Confident beginner. Tools Required: Basic toolbox with skills on how to use tools.

It was challenging to get set up. It's working, but not mounted on the roof or attic yet. That seems to be even more challenging. Do you offer installation service?

We mounted this on a 8' piece of conduit in the ground and it picked up many many channels within a 60-80 mile radius. We do live on a hill but considering it is just 5' off the ground I think it does an excellent job!

Easy to install. Great range. I picked up 66 stations with just this antenna. When I had basic cable, I only got 25 channels . The picture comes in so clear, way better than when we had cable. Also the sound comes in much better. I don’t have to turn up my volume as high. Would definitely recommend buying this and ditching cable tv.

Tried a few different cheap indoor antennas with no success. This one was recommended by The Antenna Man on YouTube. It works perfectly. Can now get all four local major network tv stations plus sub channels and a few more. This antenna and a basic Sling subscription with ESPN is all I need for football and sports.

I bought this antenna to save on monthly cable bills since I usually just watch basic cable TV shows and all my other subscriptions (Amazon, Hulu, Netflix). I was choosing between this and the "stick-on-the-wall" slim type of Antennas but in the end decided on this since it at that time, it claimed to have the most reception/capability amongst all its other brand competitors. Size wise, it is quite bulky, but not too bad. I hide it behind my TV so it doesn't bother me at all. You will have to download an app to help you find the right direction to face it, but overall, reception and quality of HD TV has never been better! This is worth it! Though humans as we are, you might still want more from the product. so ALWAYS do your research before making a purchase!

This guy is the "upgrade" over the earlier model. Its smaller and it drops the directional cage. This is good and bad. You'll pick up more channels, but not as good reception. Comes with tons of mounting points. Recommend putting it as high as possible. Be SURE to use RG6 coax and not the cheap stuff
