Any suggestions for an amplifier ? I'm running an autocom (active plus) with a zumo gps and serius radio. Need more volume as I wear earplugs.
Thanks

There are several options. I personally use the Amplirider (google it) and am satisfied with it, and especially with the maker's customer service. Mine is mounted on the blank radio panel on the left side of the RT fairing.
There's another product, Mix-It, which I know nothing about. I notice Aerostich has them on sale.
There's a third product popular with a lot of riders, but I can't remember the name.
Here's a clickable photo of the Amplirider installed. The volume unit is underneath; the rest of the unit, with input/outputs, is under the seat; plenty of wire to run it where you want.

I use a Mix-It with my AutoCom, and it works great. You can run it off a 9 volt battery, or use your bike's power.

I use a boostaroo and I have been happy with it. I picked mine up on Ebay for short money.
I have the Amplirider, or Pocket Amp. It uses two AAA batteries, rechargeable, which the pocket amp comes with the AC plug to do so. Volume is LOUD in my custom molded sound monitors. I have a SkyFi2.

Just a thought, the Sirius unit has a volume control built into it. It's one of the settings in a menu. Is it up all the way? That may get you the audio gain you need with out spending $$$.
