About the XM Direct Satellite Radio Package

Matt Freeman
If you're looking to get XM Satellite Radio in your car, and if you have an XM-ready Sony stereo, this package is for you. It features the XM Direct radio, an XM antenna, and the adapter cable you'll need to connect the radio to your stereo.

If you're looking to get XM Satellite Radio in your car, and if you have an XM-ready Sony stereo, this package is for you. It features the XM Direct radio, an XM antenna, and the adapter cable you'll need to connect the radio to your stereo.

The XM Direct radio is super-compact, so it will fit neatly in a convenient spot — under the passenger seat is the most typical location. The antenna mounts snugly on the roof of your vehicle, thanks to its strong magnetic base. The adapter cable plugs right into your Sony stereo's CD changer port.

Once the XM Direct radio is connected, you can use your Sony stereo to select channels (by category or station number) and view station information (artist, album title, track title, channel number, or channel name) on its readout.

The XM Direct radio is a universal application. It also works with compatible Kenwood, Alpine, Pioneer, and Panasonic stereos. Should you ever switch the brand of your stereo, you'll only have to buy a new adapter cable (for the appropriate brand), rather than replacing the XM Direct radio entirely.

You must have a subscription to XM in order to tune in the digital satellite radio signal. (Satellite radio service is available only within the lower 48 states — not available in Alaska, Hawaii, or U.S. territories.)

Features

Overview: This package includes the Terk XMDSON110 Smart Digital Adapter and the XMD1000 Terk XMDirect Universal XM Satellite Radio tuner with an antenna. The XMDSON110 allows you to connect the tuner to a compatible, satellite-ready Sony car stereo receiver with changer controls.

Compatibility: The package is compatible with a wide range of Sony receivers, please check your radio's accessory list to confirm compatibility.

Antenna: The XMD1000 includes an ultra-thin Micro Antenna with a 19-3/4' cable. The strong magnetic base securely attaches the antenna to the vehicle. Best reception is achieved with the antenna mounted on a metal surface of the vehicle roof in the center of an area with at least 12" x 12" of surface area, and a minimum of 6" from a window or sunroof. Antenna Dimensions: Width=1.769", Height=0.654", Depth=2.323".

CD Changer Integration: If the XMD1000 XMDirect Satellite Tuner and XMDSON110 Smart Digital Adapter are installed, a CD changer cannot be added.

Installation Note: Because of cable lengths, the XMDSON110 should be installed behind the dash within 3 feet of the XMD1000 tuner.
