Does the 06 Legacy Limited 6 disk changer have an aux in?

Recommended Posts

Can anyone with an 06 Legacy Limited verify that the 6 disk changer has an aux in on the back of the head unit? I'm on the fence whether to buy on 05 leftover or an 06, and this may be a reason to go with the 06. I know for a fact the 05 does not have one.

 

Thanks!

no, nothing that is already with a standard plug.. you can get an FM wireless module instead like what I did:

I got this one:

I bought the more expensive one for the gold connectors and the gold-plated plugs.

I did search... couldn't find any info specific to the 2006 model year, just 2005. I read somewhere that Subaru was going to add an aux in for 2006. Just wanted to know for sure....

i don't think gold connectors will overcome the crappy sound quality of an FM transmitter.

 

the factory stereo was a big hangup for me as far as buyin the LGT - i was leaning towards the STi because of it, but i'm so glad i got the LGT instead.

 

there are two solutions:

-use the JL Audio Cleansweep to add an aux input (and "fix" the sound of the stock stereo)

 

-buy an aftermarket stereo, the required wiring harnesses, and the AVO DIN adapter

 

i went the second route. i got a stereo with two AUX inputs. i ran the front speaker outputs of the stock stereo into a lineout converter and into the new head unit. the other AUX input has a cable running to it from the center console (drill a hole in the bottom of the storage compartment, install a grommet). i have this connected to a portable MP3 player. could also use a Sat radio tuner, etc.

 

for about $600, i have an MP3 CD packed full of my favorite driving tunes in the aftermaket stereo, 6 CD's in the factory stereo, and 40Gb of MP3's in the portable. i was also able to add my powered sub box using the sub output of the aftermarket stereo and control the gain from the headunit. a good quality unit will also give you high and low pass filters, EQ, wireless remote, and other features you just won't get from the stock stereo.

 

i was concerned about appearance, and the unit i got looks stock - if you shop around you can find something that matches, or ones with adjustable colors. here's a pic (the display in real life is the same whitish-blue color as the factory stereo / climate control displays, but doesn't look that way when photographed). it takes a little work, but its worth it. :)
