    So the cobalt comes with xm, but I have a sirius radio. I'd like to keep the xm and the sirius, but I'm worried that I only have one imput that can be used and that it is being taken up by the xm radio.

    Do they make splitters for something like that or am I sol. Because I could connect an auxillary input adapter that way I have on on the radio and then one on the adapter, but I'd perfer to not have to do that if there is another way.

    I had the same problem with my Sable, only 1 input and was being used by cd changer. I got the JL Audio Cleansweep which has an aux input for the sat radio or anything else. But I have aftermarket amps. Im not sure it would work with just the stock setup. It would work great if you are going to use amps.

    The cleansweep removes all equaliztion from the factory unit so you get a flat signal. I guess you could add an EQ after the cleansweep. It does come with a calibration disc. I must admit it does sound very nice, I cant complain, it really enhances aftermarket speakers and subs and it sends 8 volts to your amp so you get a nice clean signal.

    I've looked into it, I mean can't go wrong for the price. And the reviews are pretty self explanatory.

    like I said I cant complain, everything sounds very nice. My only complaint is when using the aux it does not allow for fader control so if your rear speakers are more efficient than the front you get more sound fron the back. All I did was switch the rcas and fixed the problem. Yes the gains are set pretty low but still very loud and clean. No complaints on sound quality.
