I've got a 3-month XM trial in the new van, but it's due to end in another couple of weeks or so. I'm not likely to renew because on ongoing sound quality issues...

From an old post of mine.....

Just an opinion regarding XM.....

I was a HUGE fan of XM several years ago....touting how great it was to friends and family, etc... But once they started their "number of channels" war with Sirius...dividing up their FCC-alotted bandwidth into smaller and smaller (and more and more compressed) chunks.... I've given up on them completely because of poor sound quality. XM doesn't even sound as good in my car as it used to, and with the Polk reference tuner on my Axioms, it sounded horrible. It was a big issue for me, as I felt I invested $$$ in equipment only to have them lower the quality from the the level that I signed up for...and invested in...
