CD quality sound, Meh,,,, Its sorta close... Close enough and way better than without it. BTW, My headunit says AUX not P.I.E when I'm using it?

Thanks for all the info guys!

 

It just reads it as a Auxilary conection than a P.I.E., altho im no where near a pro at PIE or any junk like that but that would make more sense.

 

Same here, display reads AUX. Whatever, it works and sounds great.
This is the way to go. Love that XM !!!

 

I'm assuming your talking about an adaptor to run your XM directly through your factory head unit and not the antennae....

Where do you pick them up and how much?

What is involved in the install?

Will it work with Terk's XM Commander?

Thanks for the info but this is what I've been waiting for.

 

I just bought mine this morning for $78.00 with free shipping, from eBay. I can't wait for it to get here so I can hook up the Sirius/iPod to my radio the proper way instead of FM modulation. It sounds like crap right now...

 

Dont expect too much bro! It aint CD quality by any means. But, Its better than your set up is right now and I was ok with that.

 

Set my iPod up with the Pie and the BlitzSafe Universal iPod adapter. Sounds great to me. Just as good as any cd. Mp3 or audio.

 

Gotscrewed did you try adjusting the audio adjustment on the pie?? it makse a huge difference

 

As long as it sound sbetter than the muffled crap I have to put up with now, I am cool.

 

Yeah, I have it on the lowest setting. When I adjust it up I get terrible distortion! Why? I dont know.

 

Check your grounds. Also check your spelling in your sig

 

Soooo how'd it go?

 

FYI:

The PIE unit can and will drain your battery if left long enough. I had a two week hiatus from my truck while working over here in Missouri and arrived home to a VERY dead battery.

I'll be doing some serious searching here and running a wire from Mr. PIE to a wire that is only hot when the truck is on very soon...

Yeah... I know it says constant but... I think some folks have installed it in another manner haven't they?

 

I used keyed hot on mine and it works great
