[CA] SR 50 to Jensen sirius-ready radio connection

popeyetsman,

Unfortunately, your beliefs concerning your stereo head unit's Sirius/SiriusXM-ready features appear to be incorrect. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing this subject. Should you consult Jensen's support team, you will likely find confirmation that the Jensen stereo head unit is designed to be interfaced to a SiriusXM receiver such as the SiriusXM SXV300 Connect Vehicle Tuner identified within the referenced FAQ. SiriusXM receivers such as the SiriusXM SXV300 Connect Vehicle Tuner are designed to support digital command / control, data, and digital audio communications with the stereo head unit. In contrast, SiriusXM Marine Weather / Satellite Receivers are reliant upon a compatible MFD to perform all digital command and data communications with the SiriusXM Marine Weather / Satellite Receiver and are only capable of producing analog line output. Such analog line output is exclusively suitable for serving as an auxiliary input to a stereo head unit, amplifier/pre-amp, or amplified speakers.
