Our verdict

An internet radio made only for the SiriusXM Music for Business service, giving shops and offices licensed commercial music without a satellite dish. A separate business subscription is required and consumer plans do not work.

Overview

A shop, salon or office owner gets a corded internet radio that streams licensed business music over an Ethernet connection. It feeds speakers through the audio output, and schedules can be set remotely.

Choose it when a business wants licensed, commercial-free music with no satellite dish and a simple wired setup. The limit is that it works only with the business service, so the subscription is an extra purchase, and the listing is vague on the display type.

Who it's for

A retailer, salon or waiting room owner wanting music cleared for commercial use will use the licensed channels and the remote scheduling. Home listeners, and anyone without a network cable near the unit, should look at a different kind of radio.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Licensed for commercial use
  • No satellite dish needed
  • Wired Ethernet connection
  • Free trial available
Cons
  • Subscription sold separately
  • Business plans only, not consumer
  • Display type listed two ways
  • Not water resistant

Performance notes

The radio streams over the network, so audio quality and reliability depend on the connection rather than on reception. A wired link avoids Wi-Fi dropouts. Channels are programmed for businesses, and schedules set remotely change what plays without anyone touching the unit.
