The factory-approved dealer-installed XM package is the same Delphi "XM
Commander" unit you can purchase from aftermarket shops for a lot less than
Honda sells it for. It uses an FM transmitter to transmit the sound through
your system by having you tuning to an unused radio station. The sound
quality is less than stellar.
You're better off going to an aftermarket shop who can install a hard-wired
system using a SoundGate adapter. It will cost less and sound better.
