I bought this interface with a Jensen VM9424BT head unit. Little did I know that this is ancient XM technology. My professional installer had no way to program this unit, so I have taken on the task. I have tried to access the drivers and the Audiovox servers are always down. My Jensen plays great radio but no XM. Had i known that the new XM tuners would not work with the head unit I would have never made the purchase. AVOID THE AUDIOVOX CNP2000 AT ALL COSTS!

I hired a professional installer to install my Jensen VM9424 in a 2009 Jeep Wrangler. That part went great. He wouldn't even attempt to program the Audiovox CNP2000UC XM Program Interface Adapter. He says last time he tried it took him 6 hours. I said, OK, I can do it. Can't be that hard. I've followed Audiovox' on line instructions, tried installing the driver on 32 bit and 64 bit PC's running Windows 7. I've been at it about 5 hours now, and nothing works. I'm no dummy on computers. This device is junk. If I can get it working, I'll re-review. If this is the only sat radio interface your new radio is compatible with, buy something else.

Everything when in the way it was support too and have had no problems with it so far. I will say go to the Audiovox web site before doing anything because label on the unit tells you to connect the unit via USB first then go to web site which will not work, you need to download the driver before connecting the unit or things don't work right

The idea behind this device is sound. It's programmable to run a number of different head units XM capabilities, creating an all-in-one tuner. It's a nice idea.
The problem comes with programming. You MUST have a Windows PC running XP Pro that can also produce enough power to turn this thing on with USB 2.0. The tech I talked to at Audiovox said that most laptops won't do it, and despite that their packaging says XP Pro or newer, it actually only supports XP Pro, not Vista or Win7.
I finally got frustrated and am in the process of sending this product and the Sony head unit I bought with it back to Sonic Electronix (which is a shame, because I hear wonderful things about the head unit). So far Sonic has been awesome in my return process and I can't speak highly enough of their customer service. Unfortunately the same can't be said about this tuner. Don't waste your time, get a tuner that's pre-programmed for your head unit.
