Hello all. I have been enjoying the upgraded sound system I put into my Azera, but recently I had been listening to some songs and when the music would hit certain frequencies...I would get a vibration from the speakers. I pulled the door panels and watched the speaker perform during those songs and realized that the adapter ring that comes with the speakers I have (Infinity Kappas) is really cheap, flimsy and adds to the ability for the speaker to vibrate. The solution...pulling the speakers out, removing the adapter rings and re-installing the speakers using 3/4" MDF (hearty birch ply-wood would work as well). I marked an 8" circle, then centered the speaker using the adapter ring as my guide. Cut out the speaker opening, then cut out the ring. I held it up in place, drilled a hole within 1/2" from the outer edge of the ring to ensure it would drill through the door panel as well, ran some 1" screws to secure the ring to the door panel (Make sure you have run your speaker wires behind the ring and out of the way of anywhere you might be drilling or installing screws). I then put the speaker in the opening the way I wanted to mount it, marked the hole locations, drilled the holes, connected the speaker wires and screwed the speaker into place. The difference...watching the speaker handle some of the lower frequencies (when the woofer moves a lot) the plastic ring flexes with the action of the woofer and it's like a ripple effect going into the door panel. With the wood ring, the only thing moving is the woofer cone as the wood is much more rigid, it absorbs the energy from the speaker basket (frame). I think I will pull them off and run a bead of latex caulk under each ring to seal it to the door panel as well. So...if you have done the speaker upgrade and you get a "buzzing" noise when you listen to certain songs...that could very well be a very low cost, simple solution to resolve the issue. Let me know if you come up with the same results. Mike |

When I bought my ipod a couple of weeks ago, the Apple salesperson went online to determine cable needed to hook up with 2007 Azera sound system. Bought the cable, but see nothing in the manual re installation. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Was sold Monster iCable for Car. Will ask dealer and have them install.

When you say "no installation cost" ... does that mean dealer includes installation in cost of cable, or easy to install myself?

Replying to: rance2 (Mar 01, 2009 8:42 am) Also, post #304 in this forum would seem to indicate no input port to the back of the radio. That would mean that the Monster Cable is not going to work either. |

I just purchased a 2008 Azera Limited. I was going to put in Universal iPod adapter by Peripheral Electronics, but it won't work if the XM tuner is internal in the Infinity deck. Does anyone know if the XM tuner is separate? Anyone one have any experience with the Universal iPod adapter by Peripheral Electronics? I know I can rip out the unit and see, but I would prefer not to until I am ready to install. Thank you for your help.

I noticed from pictures that the '09 radio has a much larger display than my '07. Does it show any more info like artist and song name on XM all the time instead of having to push the "info" button?
