Functionality and Style in One Very Small Package!

byTeach2 Feb 22, 2006
18 Helpfuls 19 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Lightweight, Many Different Functions Available, Portability, Programming/Customization
Cons None Yet! Will Update if I Have Problems!
Recommended it? Yes

To me, the Sirius Satellite Radio (SSR) S50 is the definition of functionality and beautiful design! With the constant boom in IPod-like devices, SSR has surpassed the standard when it comes to radio and portability!

I've had SSR for about 5 months now and about 2 months back I caught... Read full review »

Not quite ready for prime time...

Pros Very sleek, attractive unit. Recording radio is surprisingly handy.
Cons Locks up constantly, ergonomics need work.
Recommended it? Yes

After anxiously awaiting my Sirius S50, I have spent the last 2 months getting familiar with it. It has also been my introduction to satellite radio. All in all, I love the programming but must admit, I'm disappointed with the technology (especially considering the steep price).

First of... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

I was worried about getting this since I read reviews on this site and a couple others and people tended to either love it or HATE it. I told my installer this and they promised that if I didn't like it, I could return it and they would de-install it for free. I really couldn't lose. If you have... Read full review »

Satellite radio joins me at home, and on the road

Cons Budget quality construction, challenging to get signal reception (home kit), cumbersome...
Recommended it? Yes

Purchase through Set-up: I purchased the S50 about a month ago, at Best Buy. It was on sale with a manufacturer's rebate ($50), so I felt it was a pretty good deal. This is my first foray into the world of satellite radio, and while I debated which service provider to go with (Sirius vs. XM), I... Read full review »

BROKE AFTER 4 MONTHS

bymbhthomas Nov 29, 2006
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Supposed hard drive to record/pause programming.
Cons Not user friendly. Hard drive not perfected.
Recommended it? No

This is my 2nd Sirius product. My Sportster broke after 2 years, so I guess that's not too bad. I then purchased the S-50 because it has a hard drive which allows you to record. Unfortunately the hard drive malfunctioned after only 4 months of regular usage.

Luckily, I had purchased the... Read full review »

6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Portability, size, sound quality, "music refresh" from broadcast
Cons model is being closed out, replaced by Stiletto
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this player a couple of weeks ago an I love it! I also bought the home dock so it is easier to setup to record shows from Sirius radio. I've then listened to the shows on an airplane or while walking. Great portability! The sound quality is good, the reception is good. The controls take a... Read full review »

Pros portable, pause,Rewind,FF live music, mp3, can store favorite songs, records
Cons Wires are a pain in the neck
Recommended it? Yes

Got this for Christmas and was a little overwhelmed at first because it is capable of so much. Once I figured it out I was glad I got it because I've really enjoyed it. The portable feature is great and the commercial free music is even better. Read full review »

Pros Sirius channels, portability
Cons freezes, deletes songs
Recommended it? No

I installed the S50 in my car in April. I fell in love with this gadget right away! Sirius has some pretty amazing channels. As far as receiving a consistent signal it works fairly well, although I found it impossible to record a song when I was going under a bridge or any drive-through. I am not... Read full review »

Pros Great look, great features, great combination package, good sound quality.
Cons Slightly cumbersome at first, why no video with that screen?, no MP3 resume.
Recommended it? Yes

I have been quite happy with the unit. I received it for christmas and have been using it since.

I love the look of the display, the quality of the audio and the range of music that Sirius gives.

I have had one problem so far of the unit not working properly, but after undocking... Read full review »

Save Your Money

Pros Stores MP3's.
Cons Requires dock all the time.
Recommended it? No

All excited about this thing having an FM tuner and being able to load your own MP3's. Upon receiving it ALWAYS update the firmware. I guess these are quite buggy. Turns out the FM transmitter is only available while docked. WHY??? The whole point is to not have to wire anything up to the existing... Read full review »
