    new HU install- won't give me an option to select Sirius?

    thanks input jrwalte - i've checked and double checked all the connections and still get the same result - however i will say that the cable that connects the HU to the clarion sirius box did get bent a little when we were putting the HU in the dash so maybe there is a pin loose?

    new HU install- won't give me an option to select Sirius?

    The manual is pretty vague, but i've tried everything possible that it says and some things I just hoped would work and still no Sirius. The manual simply says to press the source button until the 'radio selects your satellite' which i assume to mean that as i cycle through tuner/usb/cd etc...

    Audio newbie in need of some speaker selection help

    Thanks for the suggestions guys - Guess i should have given the info on the HU and Amp. I've ordered clarion DXZ585USB and I have a friend local that is selling me an older Alpine V12 4 channel amp. He's not online right now so I can't get the wattage from him. The $300 budget is just for...

    Hi guys - Just joined a few days ago and I've been reading up as much as I can in my off time but I still need some help. I just picked up a 99 Miata that has the stock Bose POS system in it. I bought this car to drive daily because it gets 30mpg (suburban was killing me @ 16). I drive...
