Good Looks; Annoying, Flawed Interface

"I've had the Alpine IDA-X001 for about a month now, and have a good idea about what I like and don't like about it. Let's start with the positives: 1) It looks great.

Music comes through sounding pristine, and the album artwork comes through nicely on the bright display. 3) The USB conne..." Read Full Review »

Great Unit for iPod use

★★★★☆
4.0

"I recently purchased this deck from my local car stereo store. I needed something that would play my ipod touch and would integrate the ipod controllers into the deck since the ipod touch is difficult to use while driving.
