How to improve XM Radio audio quality?

I've just hooked up my xm radio set to home stereo rig. Other digital sources and analogue sound better. How to improve XM radio audio quality - any suggestions?

Many thanks,

The fidelity on that channel is amazing. I mostly listen to XM Pops, Ch.113, because I like that type of music a little better, BUT the sound quality is not as dynamic. I wonder if the difference is because of the quality of the recordings. This is true with XM 70 - "Real Jazz" where some of the recordings sound like Mono (the real old stuff). As far as adding a DAC, I just purchased an Audio Mirror D2 and will hook that up to my xrt12.
