I am considering getting a SIRIUS SIR-ALP1 for my Alpine CDA 9827.

player is tempting with the SIRIUS SIR-ALP1.

I have a Pioneer DEH-P3500 with a IP-Bus connection.  Do they make a IP-Bus
to RCA?   I have a sirius system and no input into my head unit.  The only
RCA are outputs one for the sub and the other for the Front.

I've got an Alpine 3555 4 channel amp.  Channels 1 & 2 drive a set of
components up front and channels 3 & 4 are bridged and drive a 10" sub.

My daughter just bought a 99 Buick Regal with a Monsoon stereo system i
it. The rear speakers are blown? When the bass is turned up she gets

Who all here has satellite radio?
I have Sirius and love it!  I think it is great that you never have to

Sorry. I hate to ask for opinions on this but I can't make up my mind
