Thanks again Josh for getting back to me so quickly regarding this issue. I guess we should have called TSS-Radio instead of the manufacturer. Your quick response is greatly appreciated!! Great service!!

There is two audio levels for the HON-SC1 and the TOY-SC1. A HIGH and LOW setting is built into these units.Which is toggled back and forth with the steps above. This procedure will work with a TOY-SC1 as well, but the TOY-SC1 will ship from the factory with a LOW setting.

The volume is low because of a factory preset on the HON-SC1 piece; this can be resolved by:
1. Turn stock audio system on, switch to SAT operation.
2. Rapidly enter on the stock radio PRESET buttons the following code: “162534″.
3. The audio level will toggle to the new setting, which you will hear immediately if the code is entered correctly and quickly enough.
4. If no audible change, enter the code again.
5. Check the audio level on similar channel from Sirius vs. FM, then try CD.
The HON-SC1 ships with a factory setting of HIGH, but it may have been toggled into LOW by accident. If you have any questions or if this does not work feel free to email me directly Josh@tss-radio.com

I purchased the Acura SIRIUS Connect HON-SC1 to replace the XM that was originally in the car. I had it professionally installed and have not been happy with it. The volume when the sirius is on is so much lower than my regular radio or cd player. I practically have to turn my volume all the way up to hear it. I took it back to the location where it was installed and they called the manufacturer. The manufacturer stated that they have had this complaint before and there is nothing they can do about it. Wouldn’t recommend this product unless you like constantly adjusting your volume.
