Sirius integration

As I am contemplating purchasing a new RDX, the fact that I dont have sirius as an integrated option is a bit frustrating. XM completely sux in my opinion, and I dont want to give up my sirius. The fact that I may have to use an external kit is not an issue for me, but I have had the fm modulated radios in the past and the sound quality is atrocious.

Has anyone found a sure fire way to integrate sirius in the RDX without suffering the quality loss?

Thanks

Check out this discussion thread. https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=587

U can use the aux jack and a 1/8 x 1/8 jumper cable. Sounds great.

I agree. XM is not for me when it comes to sports. No NBA or NFL. If I need news, I listen to the AM stations. Other than that I dont really listen to the the radio. Sirius would have been a better option for me. Not sure why the Honda/Acura didn't use the Nissan/Infiniti approach in giving buyers the option between XM or Sirius. Does anyone have an answer for this?

Yeah, you can use the AUX port but it's not as nice as an integrated solution. I would mind if XM just carried the NFL.

I'm not impressed with the XM Radio. I can't believe all the commercials for 12.95 month.
I do like the comedy, thats the only thing I'll miss. I give enough of my money away for cable crap

Yeah, comparing to what I pay for cable the XM+Nav the price of $18.00 didn't seem like it was worth it to me; the price exceeded the utility for me. I only drive at most 3 days a week. If the XM is fixed in your car, I think the price should be half compared to what you have to pay for a portable XM radio. But even if I could take it with me there still wasn't much for me to listen to.

Sirius announced today they intend to roll-out a TV service next year. Hold tight to your steering wheel! Talk about distractions...
