I simply placed this unit upstairs near a window which has southern exposure, and the signal is very strong which allows me to use my XM Radio in my basement. I'm using my XM Radio in my basement with a home theater system, and there is no window with southern exposure. A great product which is very easy to set up.
The instant purchase was for a second antenna, so I can receive the repeater signal in two places in my house. This product works like a charm. Works great and I would certainly recommend it.
The repeater seems unfazed by the cabinet doors and the radio gets perfect reception. I installed the Delphi XM Signal Repeater inside an enclosed wooden cabinet near a south facing window (with the antenna in the window and the wire leading through the back of the cabinet). Jacks fit, etc. I have my Polk Audio XM radio tuner in a room where I was unable to get reception with the antenna that came with the radio. I didn't have enough cord to reach a south facing window (approximately 30 feet away), nor did I want wires strung through my house. The hardware interfaced with the Polk components without any problem.
However, an antenna sitting in a south-facing window combined with this repeater lets me put the radio anywhere in the house without running long antenna wires. My house has an aluminum roof which effectively blocks the XM satellite signal. It would be better if it had an On/Off switch, but it gets the job done.
I have the delphi boom box for my Delphi SkyFi radio. The Amazon price sure helps. Delphi XM Signal RepeaterThis product has given me the freedom of using my XM Radio anywhere in my home. I have set the radio's home antenna along with the transmiter in my upstairs bedroom by the window and placed the boombox with the kit antenna in my kitchen and it works great.
