and maybe some others, it not working at the moment so I can't remember exactly.

I don't use SiriusXM mostly because the sound quality is not good.

Also, up here in the northern part of USA, the signal is weaker and experiences frequent drop-outs, especially when we drive up around Canadia.

I much prefer using Pandora subscription. For $5 a month I get high quality streaming that I can play using multiple devices, not tethered to one vehicle.

All 3 of our cars have good enough stereos in them that we can tell the SQ difference.

I use it in a boombox and i did notice it sounds highly compressed which is disappointing. But since its free for a while at least ill manage. I use it for background music anyway. I'm able to get decent signal where i am in basement level

I had to retrofit the XM reciever out of a Cadillac deville, antenna out of a Pontiac Montana, and head unit out of a grand prix into my Malibu to get it to work how I wanted as if it were factory (these never had it), but it works and I love it. The sound quality through my monsoon system is great and much better over FM, and its worth the $10 per month. So yea, despite all the work it took to make it work, I love it and the music selection.

That's awesome Alex! Your Malibu is such a cool car, clearly built with lots of love 

My 04' Volkwagen Jetta has a Monsoon stereo. The sound quality and bass richness is just as good as the Harman Kardon stereo in my new '16 Subaru Legacy. I love having a premium stereo, really makes a difference.

Channels 70 and 105, Hallmark and Holly Christmas music respectively are done for the season. I might choose two other classic rock/jazz stations to take their place until next December. Sirius XM is so great! Channel 62 is the Bluegrass channel and they have really uplifting Gospel music each Sunday morning 

My vehicles came with receivers, but are not active, since Alaska is outside of their coverage area.  However when I'm at home, I do sometimes tune my TV to the select Sirius channels I get over Dish.  In the car, I usually either use radio, my iPod or streaming (Amazon Prime).
