Guide Review - Review: XM2go Live Antenna Headphones
I'm extremely pleased that XM Satellite Radio realized that the standard external antenna that comes with the XM2go portable receiver was somewhat clumsy and inadequate.
The XM2go has an antenna within itself but the external antenna also provided is helpful in pulling in a better signal. Unfortunately, it was one more wire and you had to figure out where to put it.
On a walk, I would have my headphones plugged in, with the external antenna clipped to my baseball cap - running down my side with the wire plugged into the XM2go as well. It was one more wire than I wanted.
With the XM2go Live Antenna Headphones, you get a neat package with less wires and better reception.
I purchased mine at $24.99 and feel I got my money's worth.
