Sirius radio quality vs redbook cd player

Just returned from an errand in the car and focused on the quality of the SiriusXM and have to say it was pretty good. I don't think it would be fair to place all the blame on the signal. Surely, the car audio system has to be partly responsible. That said, I am not disputing the earlier comments about the low quality signal as heard on a high end system.

It's OK for listening in the car, but comparing it in my car to both FM and CD it is not nearly as good. It seems to have a brightness and hashy highs to it now that I never noticed in my last car (traded in during March). Still, for listening on the road in a non-critical environment it's acceptable.

Classic 95 said it well. After my experience w/them I will never ever do business w/them again. Proceed w/caution. Nightmare to cancel and billing issues. I could go on and on, but do some research on the internet and you can read all about them. As far as sound quality, I thought in the car it was fine. Not worth the hassles though.

Slacker radio sounds acceptable plus its fully customizable with creating stations, skipping songs and even fine tuning how dig they deep into a artist or genre. Its a great program. Sound and interface is better than Pandora.

I too enjoy Sirius...mainly listen to classical. First, if are enjoying in the car then the extra 3 dollars to stream at home is clearly a winner. I use it all the time on my Ipod touch and stream the digital into either an HRT Istreamer or into a Marantz SA8004. No not like a great CD or SACD but still good in my opinion. Maybe me but the classical stations sound better than the and other selections.
