Delphi SA10101 SKYFi2 XM Satellite Radio Receiver and Remote Control

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Car Electronics
from: Delphi Products


This is a replacement unit for a 4yr. old SKIFi2 that no longer worked. So far it is working fine. I like the features on this unit; it's larger print display allows a quick glance to view info so less time is taken away from attention to driving.

Mio MOOV 300 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth GPS Unit with Optional Traffic and Text-To-Speech

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Car Electronics
from: Mio


I bought the Moov 300 because it was on sale for $150. At this price, its a bargain. The interface is excellent, its easy to use, and seems durable enough. However, my delight was gone when I tried to find some common points of interest (POI) and when I tried navigating from my office to home. Strangely, this unit had very few museums in it, which is strange because people like to visit museums when they are on vacation and more likely to use a portable GPS. It didn't list either the Children's Museum in Denver or the Denver Museum of Science and Nature, though it did list the Denver Zoo. This was a real deal killer. To top it off, it suggested 17-18 mile routes to my office, when my regular commute is 12 miles. I returned this unit after ... Read More:

Garmin nvi 550 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Car Electronics
from: Garmin


So, finally I got my nuvi. It was a tough choice: many GPS carriers are available, and each has many models that come in vast variety of flavors. I've narrowed it down to Nuvi 550 for the following reasons:

1. Text to speech to me is really annoying. I want my GPS to tell me when and where to make a turn, and not worry about spending extra time looking off the road to confirm street signs.

2. I wanted my GPS to help me out more than just driving directions. I hike, I camp, I travel all over, and not just North America. I wanted the versatility of being able to navigate and pin point my location on the highway, in the mountains, offroad, and not just be able to locate nearest gas station. Before Nuvi 500/550 I would ... Read More:

Black & Decker 10 Watt Power To Go Cordless Compact AC/USB Power Supply #CPI10B (Black)

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Car Electronics
from: Black & Decker


I commute to NYC 5 days a week. I use this product to charge my MP3 player while I am riding on the bus. This way during the hour I no longer run out of tunes before my bus ride is over. Without tunes an hour on the bus can get very long. This product is well worth the money.

Garmin 010-00401-10 StreetPilot c330 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Car Electronics
from: Garmin


The greatest thing for the wrong turn person. I wonder though how it chooses it's routes sometime. When it tells you to make a right and you know that the left is quicker. But then, I use it when I need to go somewhere new. It is even better now that I upgraded the maps. ($70.00) It will be in my car forever.

Pioneer GEX-XMP3 Portable XM Satellite Radio Receiver w/ Home Kit

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Car Electronics
from: Pioneer


I replaced my Delphi MyFi XM2go Satellite Radio with this radio and the old one just now looks like a boat next to this new sleek Xmp3 from Pioneer. I had big power/battery problems with the Delphi even after the battery recall and so far that's the only problem I'm having with this new radio, it seems to burn through battery power quickly (4 hours for live play isnt enough for me). Everything else is terrific. it's very easy to use, very intuituve once you get the logic of it. I love the small size, the low and the low weight. The built-in antenna is great. The ability to record more than one program at a time is terrific. This is a great player at a good price.

Boss Audio 534UA In-Dash CD/MP3 Receiver with Drop-Down Front Panel

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Car Electronics
from: BOSS AUDIO


I've been living with this for two weeks. I think it's a great product. Sound quality is superb. AM and FM radios work fine. The full-size USB Type A port finds all the MP3s on my flash drives. The big volume knob is easy to find and use. I love the basic functionality - I can easily listen to all digital media, not just commercial CDs like my old car CD player which cost $600 in 1997.

But this stereo comes with several annoyances. The front panel displays a visualization of your audio in red lights. It doesn't affect night vision, but it's cheesy and distracting.

Two buttons that I never use - mono/stereo and loudness - are big, red, and backlit. Buttons I often use - mode, next/prev, band - are small, unlit, and hard to find. Disp ... Read More:

Pioneer TS-A1672R 3-Way 6.5-Inch 220-Watt Speaker

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Car Electronics
from: Pioneer


I took out my stock speakers in the doors of an Acura CL and installed these pioneer 1672's. The sound is so much better over my stock speakers. I am driving these with a pioneer 4900 head unit without amps, so I can't really say how well the bass would or wouldn't be with more power. For my system the speakers do a fine job with bass and excellent with mid range and high frequencies. I highly recommend them for an upgrade from factory speakers!
