Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I was looking for a "cheap" car stereo to replace the factory head unit in my 2001 Mustang. I wanted AM/FM and CD, with mp3 compatibility, a USB connection, and an AUX in. Additionally, due to my car's unusual factory sound system, I needed preamp outputs with a high pass filter and a low pass filter for the subwoofers. The Alpine satisfied all these requirements, and it's been great so far.
Pros: cheap, sounds good, easy to install, plays mp3's on both data CDs and USB sticks, and supports iPod connectivity with optional cable as well as audio AUX input on the front panel.
Cons: User interface is a bit clunky.
Notes: I have a Mac, and to get songs to play properly and in the correct order on a USB stick, you have to copy them to the stick in the order you want them played, and then *remove* all the hidden files that the Mac copies as well. The Alpine will skip these hidden files, but it takes a few seconds for it to realize it can't play them.
Also, my unit does not seem to like Memorex CD media. A burned Memorex CD plays fine at first, but then in the middle and toward the end of a CD it starts to skip, drop out, and eventually stop playing altogether with "error" on the display. TDK media has no problems at all with everything else being the same.
