One of the other unique features of the XACT “Stream Jockey,” is that it can be used as a stand-alone receiver, connected to speakers or headphones. Or, it can be wirelessly connected to a vehicle’s in-dash radio, or home stereo system, like other Plug & Play satellite radios.
“All you need is to get the satellite signal, and you’re ready to go,” said Ben Lowinger, Senior Vice President of XACT Communication. “This product gives the listener the ultimate flexibility. You can use it in a vehicle, boat, home, or office."
The Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) will be $99.99 for the unit itself, and $59.99 for the universal docking station that can be used in the car or the home. Separate docking stations for car and home will be sold for $49.99 each. Prices for the boom boxes will be announced at a later date.
