Dual XML8100 Review

Dual XML8100 Review by starman

For a great price, this radio does the job. I plug in my son's Ipod Touch and listen to online music stations. The radio seems to pick up local radio stations very well. The Aux input with the Iplug adapter works well with my daughter's cd player. I've not played with all the features but am satisfied with the radio so far.

Dual XML8100 Review by Nikolaus Arnold "studionyc" (NYC)

A. Does not fit in dash: dock needs clearance in order to fold out. Unit must stick out over 3/4". Looks awful (metal cage and screws remain visible).
B. Radio reception not hot. I get three stations where factory radio had 20.
C. Ipod-dock sounds beyond poor: constant hiss and white noise audible at all times (except at HIGH volume).
D. Cheap plastic, UI poorly conceived as well (audio controls are literally 'folded away' when using dock!).

I wanted a dock minus the cable etc. (great concept here) but unfortunately it looks and sound like......a cheap head unit!
Maybe the new double DIN unit will work better, this one gets 2 stars for A+ concept, but unfortunately it will only
make sense in a 800 dollar junker...My DUAL 8100 will soon go the way of the DODO bird...

Dual XML8100 Review by DaveH

Great radio for the Low $.. Bought the DUAL XML8100 @ Best Buy for $89.00. This replaces the stock radio in my 2006 F-150 work truck.
I gave up using a FM frequency converter for my Ipod awhile ago (they're junk)& I don't really like using a Blue tooth earpiece if I don't have to... Sound quality is Good, Ipod dock is sturdy , Could it be better ...Maybe? but for $89.00 it's a Great deal and it Included the BTM Bluetooth Module in the box.. Can't complain..
