Well, you won't have to turn K band off on your 9500ix, since the autolearn will quickly take care of the false alerts for you.

Yes, but that's only on my V1. I run my 9500ci with all bands enabled, along with my V1.
Re: I bought the 9500ix today
DJ, you even run with X band enabled on your CI?

What is "db" and what does it stand for?

Yes. No reason not to in my opinion. All of the false alerts are locked out anyway.

"db" stands for decibals. The ratings are actually negative. The more negative, the better. -108 db is very good. Jag42's 108 db is a complete guess on his part and in my opinion, a huge overestimation. I highly doubt it's anywhere near 108 db. That would make it about the same sensitivity of the 9500ix, which from what I've seen of Whistler RDs, the 9500ix is wwaaaaaaaayyyy more sensitive than any Whistler.

Bet you can't wait for your first C/O radar hit! Now you need to hardwire that baby up high and you're set. I personally would never leave a detector in plain view like that on the dash. Do you know how to hardwire it?

It's really not that hard to do. I figured out how to do with help from the guys here.
[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2D4EizMUhsk]YouTube - How to Hard Wire Your Radar Detector[/ame]
I'd try mounting it to the left of your RVM. Even if you mounted it low, a hardwired detector is so much cleaner of an install and more practical than a cell phone cradle mount. Also the thing with hardwiring is that it is like riding a biking. If you learn how to do it once then you can do it a million times. Most members here recommend hardwiring RD's. If you don't feel comfortable then they can be installed in your car by Bestbuy (or any car electronics store). I'd say you will need 30 minutes to get the main part of the install completed.
Here is what you need:
Add-a-circuit (can be found at Napa Autoparts) Less than $10
Smartcord (Bestbuy) $30
Credit Card to run wiring
Needle nose pliers or anything to fasten add-a-circuit
