Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)For $200 I guess you can't beat this head unit for IPod compatibility. Still, there's some shortfalls... The first is that the menu interface system is completely non-intuitive and outright wacky. I hate to admit it, but I have yet to figure out how to use either Album MIX or Song MIX to shuffle songs. The second drawback is the large size of the display characters/font. If your album has a long title, and you happen to have multiple volumes or discs of the same album... forget it. The display will only show part of the title, and the end is cut off. Makes it a real pain. Because of this, I might recommend you go for the Alpine CDA-9857 for $100 more. The CDA-9857 has an allegedly superior display (and it has a percentage search feature that helps you speed through song lists I hear), but I haven't seen the HU, so can't really say. Check it out.
