With the V-Drive amp you can crank this thing like a car with a turbo comming on to power. Very impresive, very involved in sound. Audiophiles should love this.
I have this deck and all I can say is that Im glad I went with my first gut and stuck with Alpine. It really doesnt get much better than this. While there are other decks with more features, (1/2 of them most people dont really use) the quality of an Alipine deck is unbeatable. It can make stock speakers seem awesome. And that fact that I can use my Ipod with it is even more impressive. Now, some of the features are pretty tricky to figure out, but its nothing that cant be figured out in a few minutes. All I have to say is IM ALPINE FOR LIFE! If you are in the market for a deck SEARCH NO FURTHER AND GET AN ALPINE. The quality, sound and longevity of an Apline deck is simply unmatched.
best head unit that i have used
Wow, This is my first Alpine and I must say it is awesome. You won't be disapointed. Like someone else said, it is a little tricky to figure it all out but I am getting there.
Easy to use and sort through files when using an mp3 cd, supplies good power for a head unit, easy to control subs with dial.
