Great sound

bybpearsa Jan 28, 2004

Pros Outstanding sound quality, good ergonomics, lots of great sound options.
Cons Bright display, knob is too short to use well, features hard to find.
Recommended it? Yes

AMPLIFIER AND SOUND:
I used to be running an Eclipse head unit in my BMW, powering 5 1/4" components in front and rear, but this Alpine takes the cake. The 60W x 4 amp is incredible. It's my experience that to get the most full sound out of a speaker, you have to have a very powerful amp... Read full review »

A Cut Above the Competition

Pros Excellent sound quality and muscle, well built, mp3 playback
Cons too many lights and colors, a bit pricey unless you shop around
Recommended it? Yes

When I finally got fed up with my old cassette player, I went with a brand of CD player that I learned to trust years ago: Nakamichi. After installing a CD-45z, I was amazed at how unimpressed I could be by a CD player. It had to go. And, went it did. I decided to go with the new Alpine CDA-9813... Read full review »

Alpine CDA-9813 In-Dash CD Player

Pros Awesome construction and sound quality. A good bargain retail or online.
Cons Lighting is just a little much, but this is nitpicking.
Recommended it? Yes

As with other reviews that I've read regarding this unit, the first thing that struck me out of the box was the quality. Other CD players I've owned have felt and somewhat looked toyish. No this one. It's well made and looks really sharp installed in my '98 Ranger.

As far as lighting... Read full review »

Pros Great sound. High power. Ergonomic design. Powered Control/display tilt. Tasteful...
Cons May look too attractive to thieves.
Recommended it? Yes

I installed an Alpine CDA-9813 in my car today. I bought it in Ottawa Ontario for $550 Cdn, which is about $120 more than I had originally intended to spend. I looked at quite a few other decks before deciding that this one was the best for me. Some of the other decks that I considered were the... Read full review »

Overall very good head unit

bypolyman Aug 12, 2004
11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Great sound quality, tons of features, remote is easy to use
Cons Display hard to read in direct light, low RCA voltage
Recommended it? Yes

Going from a stock head unit in my 1997 Acura TL, just about any HU would be better. After reading reviews and playing with head units at car audio shops, I ended up buying the Alpine 9813. In the end, it came down to the Alpine 9813 and the Pioneer 8600 (which was a new model for Pioneer). People... Read full review »

This HU is awesome.

Pros Enormous amounts of power. Many useful features, time correction, and built in crossover.
Cons Pricey, but worth it. Takes long to figure it out.
Recommended it? Yes

Overall:
Great deck on alpines part. Recomend to everyone. Alpine decks are great for the sound fanatic, but lack the cosmetics of other cheaper decks such as, JVC, Sony, or Pioneer.
Pros:
Face plate tilt is a great feature to show someone that they dont have it and brag. Of course... Read full review »

Good, solid unit - some surprising minor shortcomings.

bygottleib Mar 8, 2004
11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Powerful, well-equipped for expansion, accurate playback, feature-packed, good manual &...
Cons Ten character display, short volume knob, inadequate dimmer, somewhat confusing...
Recommended it? Yes

The pros:

Very powerful at 27 watts RMS per channel. So much power that it has its own tiny cooling fan. One slight installation note: this is a very high-draw unit which is recommended to have its own power wire rather than being connected to the factory wire. I ran mine from the factory...

Pros Very attractive, Crisp sound, Good Organization and Great Functionality
Cons A bit expensive, but I got mine for under $350 Canadian so I am happy.
Recommended it? Yes

I just picked up my Alpine CDA-9813 last week and I am quite happy with the quality of sound that this car deck outputs. I put my older model Alpine CDA-W550 in my wife's car. I purchased it at 12 Volt Car Audio & Security in Toronto, Ontario, (416-748-5803) and they even helped me tune it so that... Read full review »
