Pros Great sounding, feature rich head unit with the world's first built in XM tuner.
Cons Mediocre XM quality, not enough buttons for easy use.
Recommended it? Yes

Hello everyone. I'm thrilled to be able to write this review. I'm also a bit scared to write this review because car audio is one of those highly competitive areas when people spend hundreds and hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars to create a heart stopping steel boom box. I too was once in... Read full review »

Great XM all-in-one in-dash..but horribly dim display

Pros Excellent sound quality; superb build quality; Alpine knows car audio!
Cons Very dim display that could not handle full daylight in my experience
Recommended it? No

I bought this unit at Crutchfield's because of Alpine's reputation for excellence in sound quality and because the XM tuner is built-in to the head unit. The XM selection of stations is everything you could ever hope for. The XM sound is good, but may take a little fiddling with the sound controls... Read full review »

Pros Controls are intuitive. Media Xpander is plus
Cons Lack of face color choices No remote.
Recommended it? Yes

I don't know how much you like listening to local radio stations but if you are like me and have weeks where you put 1500 miles on you get tired of trying to find local FM stations with good music or finding a strong AM station with a talk show you care for.

Great, except it always resets on me.

Pros Great sound, love the built in XM
Cons Wish it had a remote, reseting issues SUCK
Recommended it? No

I seriously LOVE this unit, but have one MAJOR complaint about it. If you are slipping through sources and hit XM, and try to change the band before XM is fully initialized, it powers off. And when you power it on, ALL your settings, presets, etc are lost. That SUCKS. Read full review »

Display to dim for daytime use

byjimbo1169 May 3, 2004
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Excellent reception for both XM and FM. Easy to use.
Cons Lack of adjustable display brightness.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this unit for my wifes car. We picked the Alpine because it didn't require a separate XM tuner which would have taken up trunk space. In theory, it should be cheaper this way because of the simpler installation. The unit was $350, and the final price after installation, antenna, etc... was... Read full review »
