ATTN: all '96 A4 owners with Aftermarket Headunits
I know that i should post this in the audio forum as well, but i figured that my question pertains more to the A4 than the stereo itself.
A few months ago I purchased a Blaupunkt casablanca headunit and could not get either the AM or FM to work. I tried nuerous powered antenna adapters to no avail. I had it tested to see if it was defective and it was perfectly fine. Yesterday, after selling the blau, I purcahsed a Pioneer Premier P330 headunit along with an MTX amp and a JL sub. Once again I have no AM or FM reception. Is there anything I can do to boost reception? how did you other '96ers do it?

Are you installing yourself? I took mine to Tweeter and mine works. Let me just say that
my reception isn't 100% like it should be, but it's very good.
A friend of mine's '96 has slight reception problems, but for the most part it's okay.

Re:Installed myself
I installed the first radio (the blaupunkt) myself and the AM didn't work at all and the FM went in and out as i was driving. I had a very good local shop install my pioneer Premier this time around due to the fact that i though it could have been a problem with my previous installation. But the same exact thigns occur with the radio. This whole while the stock radio (delta) has perfect reception.
