XTRONS DAB+ Digital Radio Tuner USB Receiver Dongle for XTRONS Android Car Stereo Head Unit

It works great for the job that I need it to do in my Kia

I have two of these, one was endless trouble, weak signal, noise from the Xtrons head unit. Now after 6 months one stick has failed completely. Xtrons say it only has a 3 month warranty and won't replace or repair it. I am trying to get Amazon to do something about it, but they don't seem to want to know either.The tech support from Xtrons is poor, anytime you have a problem with DAB they just send you the article about installing the [rubbish] antenna. Yes, it is rubbish and has been replaced.So for poor tech support and a product that fails after 6 months, zero stars Xtrons.Avoid this product and avoid the TA709IPL head unit, it puts out so much noise in the DAB band it makes DAB useless.

This is almost essential if you have the xtrons head unit, such a shame it’s not built in. Easy to install and set up.The supplied aerial would pick up DAB+ stations and works when stationary HOWEVER, once you start moving the sound disappears and you get the odd squeal and squelch as it tries to get the station back, I have had to purchase an external aerial and that has transformed it into what it should be, whilst out never lost station / signal once.The unit works very well but be prepared to have to purchase an additional external aerial.

Reviews for this product are mixed but I think the instructions miss an essential requirement. I get great reception but having checked out a lot reviews I made sure I ground back the paint to steel on my screen frame where the copper contact of the aeriel is fitted. This is not mentioned in the instructions. If you have airbags fitted here, best to remove the negative contact on the battery before removing the trim that covers it to avoid setting it off. I get great station detection and reception on all natinal channels and only a few local ones aren't perfect.

Although I rate the xtrons stereo I purchased it is difficult to rate this. It arrived with little instruction on how to integrate with my stereo. I had several adapters to fit to it. It would have been nice to have specific instructions on which one to connect! Regardless. It does the job. It works!

On advice from a Tech-Head I bought the Xtrons DAB+ in a bid to upgrade the Head Unit in our Mercedes Sprinter Motorhome. I have yet to install it but have been told it is basically a plug and play style of installation, ensuring the digital aerial is placed correctly on the windshield. Assuming it works it will have saved us several 100s of $ to replace the existing Head Unit.

I loved this product for 1 hour, it picked up 20 stations and the sound quality was quite good, after the 1 hour that I was exploring the features and all it had to offer it stopped working, no signal at all and I live in a really good area for dab, I checked all the connections before writing it off, got a refund,I should avoid this one.

When it worked it was great but after 3 days lost all stations and repeated scanning failed to find a single stationNow 8 months on from replacing another one has failed !! Who gives only 3 month warranty on things now ?

Ricevitore specifico funziona bene

Installation war sehr einfach. An mein Xtrons Android Radio angeschlossen, Radio eingeschaltet, vorinstallierte App gestartet und Sendersuchlauf durchgeführt. Jede Menge Sender gefunden, sehr guter Empfang und Klang. Ich bin absolut zufrieden, wohne allerdings auch in einer Großstadt. Kann mir vorstellen, dass der Empfang in ländlichen Gegenden schlechter ist, dieses Phänomen kenne ich nämlich auch von Fahrzeugen, welche serienmäßig mit dab+ ausgerüstet sind.

Not sure if it's a software issue for this thing or it's not getting any signal, but because nothing is loading I can't see the problem with it. I would let it run thinking it may just need some time to catch up. All day...nope!

È un pessimo prodotto soprattutto l’antenna in dotazione che non riceve nulla lo sconsiglio anche come prezzo

Guys, Please google how to install it.The copper antenna needs to be placed on the car's metal frame, then it should work well without issues.
