Anyone here set up a car stereo with XM? Is there a sound quality difference
among tuners? There are tuners matched to brand, such as Sony for Sony, Pioneer
for Pioneer. There is also one called XMDirect that is less expensive ($50 as
opposed to $100) and can be used with any of the head units that support XM,
but then it requires a separate adapter (which is rather expensive - $50) for
each head unit it's used with. The price is the same or a little less, but it
can be kept if you switch head units later. How about XM antennas? thanks

There had been several discussion about XM radio in this forum.
Here is the most recent thread initiated by Dr. Richman and it is
a good one.
