At the Polkfest had a chance to hear and really demo the Polk XM tuner, I was impressed to say the least, been toying with the idea and pulled the trigger today. The sound quality of this tuner, along with all the music channels offered make it a great way to really hear some different bands and some of my favorites. But it is the chance to get hear different bands and sample their stuff before plunking down the coin for the CD with some good sound quality that makes it such a nice piece, looks good too. Been a long time since I have been able to listen to the radio as something more than "background" music.
