    Product Experience:
    2 Months
Strengths: MP3 and WMA support, MP3 Tag support, good control setup, disc compatability, auxillary input
Weaknesses: No EQ, combined power/source button
Summary: This a good midrange player from Alpine. It includes a lot of the features you would expect from a high-end player at a reasonable price. It supports MP3 and WMA files in folder arrangement and the search feature lets you search through music files by folder or title of the track to easily access any song on the disk. 160 kbit mp3s sound as good as a normal CD - especially with road noise in the background. It has a bit more power than most standard decks and sounds nice even at loud levels(depends on speakers of course). The display shows tag information and scrolls to show long names. With a button press you can cycle through artist, track, and album name. Although it doesn't have an EQ, there is base and treble adjustment and a feature to shift the frequency range of the adjustment, giving you better control of the sound than simple bass/treble control. The color of the buttons and display can be changed which can help you make the player stand out or blend in with the rest of your dash. The mute button is a nice feature when the cell phone rings (use hands free of course). The only negative I can think of is the combined power/source button - it is easy to accidentally change the source instead of shutting it down. A minor annoyance and overall I highly recommend this player.

    Product Experience:
    6 Months
Strengths: MP3 & WMA support, Quality, Easy to use, Detachable Face
Weaknesses: More expensive than other comperable brands
Summary: I have been using this player for about 6 months now. It has been great. Some of the settings are easy to use, but there are others that do require you to use the manual to know what you are doing. It has great sound, and hasn't had any problems with CDs that I have burned from my computer. I was very surprised at how fast I could change from one MP3 file to another. I had a hand held CD player that played MP3s and when you changed folders it could take up to 20 seconds for the song to start playing. With this player, I can change from the first folder to the last folder and it never takes more that 3 or 4 seconds.

It is my first Alpine, and certainly won't be the last. I have had a great experience with it so far, and I don't see that changing any time soon.

Strengths: Clean Looking, nice controls, sounds great.
Weaknesses: Not quite as powerful as I would like, but it does the job.
Summary: This cd player is great. It is relatively cheap, but it delivers lots of power. It does everything I needed it to do, play audio and mp3 cds, and the outputs to the amp, so I can power my subs. It has great controls, and is very easy to get the hang of.

Strengths: customer representitives best price on the internet for product with free shipping
Weaknesses: website could run slightly smoother but calling them on phone solves all problems you could ever encounter
Summary: Ordered product using paypal after talking to very nice customer service rep. After i spoke to him, he immediately sent me a paypal invoice and all went smooth, he also called back within 10 minutes to check that i got it ok. Business seems small and personal not some corporate company that never sees what your getting. i can't wait for my alpine deck to get here so i can hook my ipod up throw it in my jeep and take it for a good long ride.
