With the Audiovox XMB-10 XM Boom Box for Xpress XM7 Satellite Radio Receiver you can bring your Audiovox Xpress XM7 receiver with you and share your satellite radio with friends and family wherever you go. This sleek boom box provides big stereo sound in a compact and lightweight body.
The Audiovox XMB-10 has a built-in dock for the Audiovox Xpress XM7 receiver, and requires this receiver (purchased separately) in order to provide you with XM satellite radio. The XMB-10 features enhanced sound reproduction from its high-quality 4-way speaker system, and an integrated XM satellite antenna that removes the hassle of attaching an external antenna and fumbling with it to achieve the best signal. This boom box features a stylish black and silver body, a digital volume control, and separate remote volume control capabilities.
The Xpress XM7 receiver has the primary controls for your XMB-10 boom box, with its own buttons, including display, search, menu, rotary/select knob, power/IR eye, memory, preset/direct, jump, and 10 presets/numbers. The display button lets you choose between artist, song, title and data service info, while memory lets you store up to 20 song/title/artist combinations so that later you can look at something that caught your interest. Not only does this receiver provide plenty of music and radio stations with dynamic means of searching for desired content by artist, genre, or others, but it can provide you with a stock ticker that allows you to monitor up to 20 stocks, plus it offers information extras so you can follow things like the scores for your favorite sports teams. Furthermore, you can set your XM7 receiver to automatically turn on and off when power comes on or goes off, and can have it turn off via a sleep timer that can be set to 15, 30 or 45 minutes, or even 1, 2 or 3 hours. For added convenience, the XM7 has an IR remote control that can operate most of its features, with buttons that act the same as those on the receiver.
The Audiovox XMB-10 Boom Box includes an auxiliary input connector that allows you to hook up an MP3 player or other peripheral audio device, and headphone output jack so you can listen to your XM7 satellite receiver without disturbing those around you. The XMB-10 runs from its included AC power adapter, or can be made portable via eight D-cell batteries, which can also be recharged while your boom box is plugged in if they are appropriately rechargeable batteries. This unit weighs only 6.8 pounds, measures approximately 19 x 8.5 x 7.5 inches (W x H x D), and is backed by a manufacturer's limited 12-month warranty.

No boombox for Satellite Receivers sound better than this one
There was a time you couldn't have given me for free anything manufactured by Audiovox, but this unit has completely changed my mind with regards to the quality of their products. This boombox has a deep, rich, loud sound without distortion and I have absolutely no reception problems.

I've owned it now for about 20 months and couldn't be more pleased.
If you own the XM Xpress, you need this boombox! Every other boom box pales by comparision. It was actually the quality of this unit that was the reason I chose the Xpress in the first place because a quality boombox for me was a necessity. I use the Xpress unit indoors and outdoors in the boombox much more than I ever use it in my car.

2 1/2 years of ownership now and still going strong! Looking forward to the future merger with Sirius and will hopefully be able to pick up the NFL broadcasts- the only thing Sirius carries that I'd like to have.
Loving my XMB-10
The XMB-10 is a great way to listen to my XM Audiovox receiver at home. The boombox is slightly larger than I desired, but the sound is great, it's easy to use, lightweight, very portable and nice looking.
Excellent sound, great unit
I am using this with the xpress EZ model, and as far as I know, all three of the audiovox xpress line will work with this. I can not tell you how pleased I was to find this unit and that it worked witht he inexpensive Xpress EZ unit. I purchased this boombox at a large chain retail store for about half the amazon price on clearance, and it is quite possibly the best value I have ever scored. I am now able to have portable XM at home, office, or even the beach and campground. It uses 8 c batteries or a cord that is included. The reception works as well as any other portable unit. I have used portable delphi units also, this is equivelant to that in reception and portability, but the sound on this boombox is better to me. Richer bass and treble mix. Finally, this has an auxilliary input that will allow you to utilize these speakers for an MP3 Player also, another nice feature for those on the go. A well rounded value.
