Default DICE iPod integration.. DON't Like it!

Just put the DICE iPod integration kit in my LS. Can't stand it. I cannot currently remember which I put in my ES 330 but I will be replacing this one. The speakers go THUD when I switch to FM or AM and you can't control for ****. The manual says you can but there is a published one second delay which gets quite irritating. If anyone has suggestions on short cuts I am all ears. Right now to go to a play list or selected artist I need to unplug the iPod. Otherwise I am at the Dice's mercy as to whether she wants to work or not. Sounds great though....

I'm fairly satisfied with the VAISTech SL2Vi. Maybe you should try a VAISTech iPod solution.

Is it pretty easy to go through not only playlists but through artists? The problem with the DICE is that I cannot go through anything simply and there is that one second delay that really throws me off. I ultimately end up unplugging the iPod, finding what i want to hear and then I plug it back in.

With the SL2Vi, if you want to flip through artists, you would have to create one playlist per artist. Each playlist is a "disc", and each song is a track. Those are your only 2 methods for scrolling through songs.
