    I have a mid level Pioneer HU, Pioneer receiver, and (mostly) aftermarket speakers. Anyhow I've been hearing a sound resembling a cd skip on the few stations I listen to. I will try and listen to other stations since I found this can be station specific from time to time (google). I know its not the HU or speakers since the ipod and cd's do not experience this problem.

    IMO it sounds like an antenna reception issue.

    It may be the antenna, it may be getting noise due to low voltage, check your connections, maybe add a relay. If it only does this on xm then it most likely inst the hu
