    Good stuff. We worked pretty hard on it! :)

    Did you get it as a Christma-kwanza-kuh present? (I try to be PC sometimes)

    It was more like a x-mas gift to myself...and also the third xm sat tuner in my household.This one sounds the best by far.

    I agree with the thumbs-up, but I do have two issues with the receiver. First, the display is very hard to read when browing channels/etc from any more than 5 ft away or at any kind of angle. The second isn't really a problem, but something that I would have liked on the unit, would have been a headphone jack right on the front of the unit. I like lying on the couch with the wife while she watches tv and I listen to music with headphones. Since the AV recevier obviously needs to be on TV for her to watch TV, there wasn't a way for me to actually listen to the xm. I was able to solder together a pretty cheap headphone amp that fixed this issue for me, but it would have been nice to have it right up front (my TurtleBeach Audiotron has a headphone port up front, which is awesome).

    Other than those two things, I LOVE my xrt12 :)
