Sirius SR-H550 Satellite Radio Review at CNET
CNET has this review written up of the Sirius SR-H550 Satellite Radio Receiver. The editor gives it a 6.9 out of 10 rating, which is good.
The Sirius SR-H550 is made specifically for your home, as it is a table top tuner. There are not too many dedicated home models available, and of the ones that are, the Sirius SR-H550 is one of the most affordable, coming in at around $270.
Dimmensions are 2″ x 14.75″ x 13.63″ (HWD). The easy to read 6-line display in the center of the SR-H550 constantly shows the channel name, number, artist name and song title. This satellite radio holds up to 30 channel presets. Like some other Sirius satellite radios, the SR-H550 also has a Game Alert feature to let sports fans know when their favorite teams are playing. The SR-H550 also has the ability to set parental controls and channel lockouts in case you don’t want your kids to hear certain stations.
The editor was not all that impressed with sound quality, comparing it to a low-bit-rate MP3. Sound quality of the SR-H550 satellite radio was still better than that of FM radio.
A better home satellite radio option might be the Tivoli Model Satellite radio.
