I have done a decent amount of upgrading to the stereo on my 04 SEEG over the years so that I can hear my iPod. The sound quality of the iPod being connected from the head phone jack is pretty poor. I orginally added some Hog Tunes, but I kept blowing them from turning the volume up to loud. Then I added the Hawg Wired Amp and a set of the Hawg Wired premium speakers and the iPod still didn't sound very good. Compared to a CD the sound quality was horrible. I was ready to give up on the iPod.
I realized I was trying to make something sound better after I had degraded the signal so I started researching on how to get a better signal from the ipod. I started looking at options to use the 30 pin connector on the bottom of the iPod for the audio out. This is a line level output so I was hopping that it would eliminate the sound quality issues. I purchased a
PIE UNI-POD on ebay for $70. I installed it last week and wow what a difference. Now my iPod actually sounds better than my cds that I play. I can hear the stereo with the ipod playing at all speeds with ear plugs in and the short stock windshield. It has a variable output that adjusts with a dial on the unit. I played with it a little bit, but I actually set it to where it was set when I opened the box. The other great thing about the PIE adapter is that it charges while it plays so I only have one cable coming out of my fairing now. I also did the aux input upgrade of adding a second input in the back of the radio. The PIE unit fit right next to the amp on top of the stock radio. I used the same power sources as the amp and have no noise problems. I would recommend this to anyone that wants better sound from their iPod.
