whatup? i just joined, i need some advice. i have a 2005 mustang gt with the shaker 1000 system. i have a PIE aux input adapter, with my mp3 player hooked up to it. i also want to connect my sirius tuner to it, but there is only on input on the aux adapter. i was wondering if i just put 2 splitters in, and then ran another cable to the sirus tuner, if it would make the sound quality bad. my other option is this..

i am kind of leaning towards doing it with the soundgate tuner, im thinking the splitter and extra wiring will have a negative effect on sound quality

 

I don't know if this will help, but I have a really large entertainment system in my room and I have split one RCA input on my surround sound 4 ways to accomodate video game systems and have not noticed a loss in sound quality vs. having only one hooked up. Just don't run both extras at the same time and you should be fine. I think I would just split it to save money. Just my 2 cents.

 

i found out that having both connected at the same time could damage the output on one or both units, so i ordered the switch. only $41 on ebay

 

Sounds great, let me know how it works out. I've been wanting to hardwire my roady XT for a while now. I have a Peripheral Ipod Adapter hardwired and it sounds awesome, i'm getting tired of the FM transmitter for XM.

 

well here we go; i have had my updated peripheral unit for 11 months and today my instrument cluster went crazy;;; i had to disconnect the battery for an hour and disconnect the peripheral unit; all is ok now but if yours has not screwed your car up yet iT WILL -- be warned and if it is still under warranty tell them it went crazy and get your money back.

Now i am looking for another option - i am also confused with the new PIE - gotta find out if it works on the 05's or not; if you know please post.

 

th best thing would be to buy the switch, will help with sound quality

 

um how could something connected to the radio have anything to do with your gauges????


the switch works great by the way, but its all coming out next week, i just bought a pioneer avic z1!!

 

the guages and the radio are both tied to the PCM so if one thing goes wrong the system starts coughing

 

just buy a NAVI and be done with it, like it did lol.
