Polk Audio XM Radio Reciever A Winner

Running the optical output from the Polk XM to my Levinson 360s smokes the Delphi SkyFI (analog only outputs), as well as the analog outputs from the Polk XM (as one would expect). I've been using my Polk XM for almost 6 months without any problems.

I recently ran a signal from the Polk receiver's digital out to the DAC in my new Resolution Audio Opus CDP and the improvement was dramatic. It sounded as good as a cd, that is a cd in my old cd player. Then I compared it to a cd played through the Opus and it came up short, by a lot. Great for casual listening but it is not a high-end piece, at least compared to my new CDP. I will be adding a Monarchy DIP and will see if that improves it. I would not be without an XM radio. It is a huge blessing for the variety of music it offers and there are no commercials which is a big bonus for me.

I am very interested in purchasing the Polk XM reciever but I heard you cannot "link" that subscription to your present account, and have to open up a seperate XM account for that reciever at full price. Does anyone know if that is true?

I think that additional receivers can be added for $6.99/month. Go to the web site or call them.
