Sirius isn't included in any receivers made today, though I've heard that Kenwood will be integrating Sirius into more products going forward and I presume that will eventually lead to some audio recievers.
Unfortunately, Sirius doesn't have good relationships with any of the bigger home audio manufacturers yet, though I suspect they'll develop them over time. XM got Yamaha (and related companies) pretty early on and has pushed this technology into their products.
In the meantime, there are a few Sirius tuners that can be plugged into any receiver's AUX input. Sirius, Audiovox and Kenwood make some that are priced between $250 and $300 and are -- like many Sirius-capable products -- pretty identical except for the cosmetics.
There are also a couple of really expensive multi-tuner systems available that are designed for expensive multi-room systems.
All of them here: http://www.sirius.com/servlet/Conte...=1130351706512&
Personally, I just use my Clarion PnP unit plugged into the receiver. On the inside all these receivers are pretty much the same and I can't see spending extra money for the cosmetics.
