Lithium and The Highway for me. How about you guys?
Unless you are a deplorable peasant and don’t use Sirius . Jk, I’ve only had two cars with it and it’s only average.

I have multiple SiriusXM subscriptions. Why?
1) Liquid Metal
2) All of the comedy channels
3) Octane
4) Ozzy’s Boneyard.

Reception gets spotty and stations are kinda compressed sometimes. Otherwise, I love it. Only radio I use.
Every single car my family owns has a Sirius subscription though.

Spectrum, XMU, Alt Nation, classic vinyl and classic rewind are my most listened to.

Alt Nation is pretty decent, gets a little pop-y for me sometimes though.

Willies Roadhouse, Outlaw, Octane, No Shoes Nation, Comedy Central.

Octane is one of my saved presets, but I rarely listen to it.

I mostly listen to XMU now because of that. I’m not even a hipster by any stretch of the imagination but it’s definitely something when you listen to the alternative alternative channel

they’re all compressed. if you have an old Sirius receiver, you’re using a shitty old codec (PAC, developed by Lucent) which falls apart at the low bitrates they’re using (like 24-40 kb/s.) XM receivers use a more modern codec (ct-AACplus) which has to deal with the same bit rates, is better at doing so. After Sirius and XM merged, practically all receivers transitioned to the XM band.

It gets a bit repetitive after a while, and the hosts do suck, but I don’t mind the music. I also forgot Bluegrass.
![]() 05/19/2016 at 21:37 |

POTUS, Lithium, 90's on 9, and Bluegrass Junction... I know. I'm weird.

Lithium is awesome. Perfect mix of music, from Tool to Dave Matthews Band.
90's on 9 is pretty good also, I only use it when a song I don’t like is on Lithium though haha.

Jam On, Chill, The Joint, PRX public Radio, 90's on 9, Faction, the spectrum, Alt Nation, Classic Vinyl, insight. those are all my presets and I listen to them on or off every day.

Comedy Central and Raw Dog are MUSTS for long drives.

dude, spectrum has been killing it lately. Started finding my self there more and more over the last few months.

I usually listen to Alt Nation for trips around town and I’ve felt the same. Alternative rock is now indie pop rock apparently.

OUTLAW COUNTRY

The alerts for favorites drew me in. They play a solid variety of old rock and new. It’s really great to get away from the sometimes pop alt nation
![]() 05/19/2016 at 21:48 |

Whenever I have a long shift, the last couple of hours depend on Comedy Central.

yeah, I’ve learned music becomes tiresome so I’m trying to fill some space with podcasts and such.

it’s left of Jam on and when they get into those 25 min+ jams and not being on mind altering drugs get bored 1o min in it’s the first I hit when I browse for something new. it use to be very boring adult contemporary so I never stayed much. they really have explained into like you said some solid rock lately. It’s so varied too it keeps it fresh.

Not just that, but after 10 hours by yourself in a truck, you need some humor.
![]() 05/19/2016 at 21:55 |

lol yeah, I always find myself tuning into those stations when I’m 8+ hours into my drives for Texas or coming back.
![]() 05/19/2016 at 21:56 |

Octane, BPM, alt nation, lithium. I bounce between them. I don’t consider it worth the subscription but I’ve got a couple of weeks for free right now so I’m using it a bit.

It’s weird though, I use it all the time in our work trucks, but I rarely use it now that I have a car with it. Granted, the quality is spotty.

41 Faction but only when it’s not Douchebag time - Jason Ellis sucks. His callers sound like the kinds of dudes who still drive Yellow H2s with chrome 22s on them and listen to shitty nü-metal bands. You know - the kinds that have a one word name and 127 songs about how crazy the lead singer is.
Also Spectrum and Underground Garage. And Liquid Metal. And Lithium sometimes.

I mostly just tune into XM when I’m traveling. If I’m doing trips around town I don’t typically listen to anything.

I always have to have music on, it’s just a habit I developed early. I could daily an LFA, and music would still be playing.

Turbo is good, 314 I think.

I flip between the following: Alt Nation, 90s on 9, Pop2K, 80s on 80, SiriusXM NASCAR, SiriusXM Fly, Lithium, The Highway, Y2Kountry

Nice, have you had any clutch weirdness?
Whenever I “creep” it, the car shudders much more than it should and that’s kinda strange. I've only got 3,000 miles so I'm hoping its break in period stuff.
![]() 05/19/2016 at 22:51 |
|
Don’t think I’ve had any clutch issues, no. Are you sure the shudder your experiencing isn’t just the engine lugging as you let the clutch out with little or no throttle applied? If so that’s perfectly normal.

Maybe, none of the manual cars I’ve owned have done that though. In the A4 and A6 it would smoothly move forward, not vibrate.
I'm still getting used to the gearing, they're all too tall.
