Our Delphi receiver broke and we found the TAO which is functionally identical to the Delphi model. The major difference here is the styling. I like the way it fits in your hand. It just seems nicer and tougher than the Delphi. It may be an old school XM radio without a color screen, but it has the stock or sport ticker at the bottom. It can be programmed to show you scores from your favorite team and when and what station they play on XM. MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, NCAA, golf, nascar or follow stocks. Using the vehicle cradle and the optional home stereo, we get home and mobile XM with one radio. You can record XM programing on the fly by hitting the 2go button (basic record start/stop button) to have music for times when you are somewhere without reception or for your favorite tunes. You can tell it to tell you when a song is playing on any XM station so you can turn to it. Nothing else new really impresses me more than the original Myfi's and the TAO is the best of the three.Read full review
This receiver was a Christmas present in December 2006. It has been taken care of well and always handled with care. It is always either plugged into its base at home, or plugged into its base in the car. The screen print size is too small to read from a distance while driving in your car. The number keypad/numberpad is small, with two numbers on each key. The way the numbers are positioned makes it quite difficult to change the station unless you are right on top of the receiver. If using this receiver in your vehicle, you really have to use the remote to change stations. I have had to buy a new battery, and now the base does not work with the receiver any more. Lots of money spent for such a short lifespan. If this receiver and base are still made, I would not recommend the unit.Read full review
Bought this to replace a unit that died after years of service. Transferred the service from the old radio to the new one and was up and running in less than 10 minutes. Looks like a new unit and everything was included.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
WHEN I BOUGHT IT THE FM TRANSMITTER DID NOT WORK AND I AM HAVING A HARD TIME FINDING ANYONE WHO CAN REPAIR IT. THAT ASIDE I DO LIKE THE MY XM RECORDING FEATURE THAT RECORDS UP TO FIVE HOURS. SCREEN IS CLEAR AND BRIGHT AND THE SOUND IS GOOD. RECEPTION IS BETTER THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE. I THINK IT WAS WORTH THE MONEY.
This was to replace one I have had for years that failed. I love the portability of it. We do not have cell phone app service in our state and this is the only way to have portable XM. I use it when walking in the mornings, in my car, at home and work.
