I don't know of any head unit that's 6 channel compatible. And as for which head units are compatible for XM radio, you can hook it up to your OEM radio thru an FM modulator.

u can power 6 speakers with a 4 ch deck but ur going to hook up 4 of the 6 into pairs. and make sure the ohm load is 4 ohms. as far as sat radio goes i have nevr seen a deck with built in. you would have 2 purchase a separate unit that hooks up to your deck. one question tho when u said 6 speakers did u mean 2 tweeters and a 2 mids and 2 rear speakers?

Your front dome tweeters should be crossed over with the front 2 doors (Factory setup), plus the aftermarket harness made specifically for a your car will plug right in to the factory harness and have all the same color wires on the other side of the harness for the stereo. Now for the XM satelite, you will have to get the Xm control module that is made specifically for the head unit you decide to buy. So just find a stereo you want, the Xm satelite Module for that head unit and the wiring harness that is specifically for your car

many higher-end companies make radios with built in xm radio. you still have to pay the monthly fees obviously, but it is a much cleaner look

Sort of correct there has only been one head unit (alpine CDs-9821xm) hat had the tuner built in and that was discontinued years ago but you can get most any brand cd player and a direct plug in hideaway xm tuner for it.

thats what i was thinking of, sorry. ya it does require the xm "brain" i guess it would be, but displays on the head unit itself
