SiriusXM's latest dock and play product boasts new features and capabilities; Delivers SiriusXM's 150+ channels in an easy to use way
NEW YORK, June 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- SiriusXM today introduced its newest dock and play radio – the Onyx EZR – which delivers several new features at an entry-level price.

Another improvement over the Onyx EZ is the addition of TuneMix™, which allows Onyx EZR users to listen to a mix of songs from across several of their favorite channels.
The Onyx EZR delivers subscribers all of SiriusXM's 150-plus satellite-delivered channels of world class programming, including commercial-free music from virtually every genre, plus Howard Stern, and a wide range of entertainment, news, comedy, live sports and more.
