The KCA-SR50 adapter lets you control a SIRIUS satellite radio with your Kenwood stereo. This adapter works with newer Kenwood stereos equipped with a CD changer connection, letting you control either of the following:

• the SC-C1 SIRIUSConnect universal tuner;
• a compatible SIRIUS portable radio, like the Sportster, Starmate, Stratus, or Stiletto, together with a SIRIUSConnect vehicle kit (available in January 2008).

The KCA-SR50 adapter sends song text to the Kenwood stereo's display, and lets you browse SIRIUS channels by using your Kenwood stereo's controls. The adapter powers your satellite radio and includes a pass-through connection, so you can add another piece of Kenwood gear to your car stereo system. Warranty: 1 year.

Note: A subscription to SIRIUS is also required.
