Alpine CDA-9885 Car CD / MP3 Player

I got this to replace my Sony Xplod stereo that was stolen from my truck.  I really liked the Sony so I was skeptical about this one, but as it turns out I like this one better.  The controls for bass/treble/etc and for my iPod are really easy and take much less time to navigate than the Sony (and my wife's Pioneer Premiere) so there's less time my eyes are off the road, which is a plus.  It is a high quality system for the money and sounds awesome when paired with my JL 6x9's in the door.  The only thing I wish they'd done different is give a better faceplate case (the plastic hinge was already cracked after a few uses) and provide a remote.
