Alpine x100

Ok, changed my mind now... thinking of getting one of these :)

Are they any good? Ill be using it with my 80gb ipod classic. Heard there are some compatability issues?

Also, how does an ipod hook up to it? Whats "full speed" and why do you need and extra cable for it?

Im confused lol :S

Great bit of kit, really easy to navigate around. You get the cable with it and that plugs into the back. You control the ipod from the HU (obviously) and it charges it at the same time too.

Should be fine with your ipod, my old nano works fine on it. The 'full speed' is so you can use older generation ipods and allows for quicker data transfer :)

Best thing is to go down to halfords or something with your ipod to see if it works. They usually price match the internet too.

I bought mine for £150 on eBay too.. probably the same seller.

Its a great bit of kit ahmed...

I had mine in my car, then my bro saw it, loved it, and he got one too.

Most of the ones on eBay are Asian imports and work with all frequencies but lack RDS. Meaning no "Radio x" just 99.9 etc, and more importantly no Alternate Frequencies (AF).

I have one of these units and I'm forever tuning it in, and receptions is pretty poor on Alpine units anyway. Other than that, it's fine though.

Well, just come back from halfords been playing with a unit for 20 mins or so really like it... so just took the plunge and ordered a unit from china on ebay.

Tbh i hate the radio :) but its nice to know this one will pick up euro stations if i want them.

Arnt they all the same? :S

nope. euro one is different to all others. no iso connectors either which isnt exactly a major thing. Its good aslong as you dont like radio. If you want radio properly then uk unit is only one to go for and obviously you get the warranty.
