I am still undecided if I have a broken tuner or did a bad install or missed something completely else.

My reception is ok to very good (3-5 bars all the time) but the sound is pretty cheap. There is hardly any real noise, but it almost always sounds as if you were trying to reach a station almost too far away when listening to FM.

Same with AM, there are not many stations around, but I do get some - again as if I'd be trying to listen from the other side of the globe.

I haven't used an antenna power wire before, my old head unit was only connected with the regular DIN connector... that is where my Empeg is now.
