As a "Made for iPod" Apple member, Alpine brings you the best in-vehicle iPod experience. Designed with the iPod lover in mind, the iDA-X001 exceeds all expectations combining the trusted sound you deserve, and easy control and access to all your music through a brand-new interface.
Super-fast access, plus ultimate portable player convenience. The new Full Speed USB connection instantly makes your iPod ready for the road- and even lets you play your USB thumb drives.
Connect your iPod to the iDA-X001 via a dedicated USB input, for the quickest access to your iPod. Why bother with individual CD's when you can easily browse through your entire iPod collection? iPod USB adapter and USB cable included.
Your iPod never sounded so good. With crystal-clear digital connection using a 24-Bit DAC and dynamic MediaXpander processing, your compact music collection will sound anything BUT compact. The iDA-X001 uses iPod's USB connection not only for fast music access, but it also receives pure digital music information right from the iPod and sends it through the iDA-X001's built-in 24-Bit digital sound converter. This ensures you get your music playback in its best sound and purist form. Hear the difference playing iTunes lossless AAC files.
There is no "onefix" solution for in-vehicle sound quality problems. That's why Alpine engineered the MediaXpander approach that makes vocals or instruments sound distinct regardless of the music source. Compressed audio formats whether it's radio, CD or MP3, can sometimes eliminate some of the "life" from the music, but MediaXpander restores the harmonic structure across the full bandwidth, adding clarity to give your music life again.
You've always wanted a head unit that works just like your iPod! You can search by all iPod search methods: Playlist, Artist, Album, Song, Genre, Podcast, Audiobooks, and Composer. No matter how many songs you've got on your iPod, it's not a problem thanks to a fast connection speed and improved Quick Search featuring alphabet search.
The bright 2.2" high-resolution screen provides clear text and crisp, full color images and menus. The display uses the same TFT (Thin-Film Transistor) technology as do most LCD screens generally found on laptop computers. This makes text cleaner, reliable and easier to read.
Keep your hands on the wheel and still stay in touch. The iDA-X001 is Bluetooth ready. As long as your cell phone is Bluetooth compatible, simply add the Alpine Bluetooth adapter (KCE-300BT) and you're set. You'll get a wireless connection, convenient hands-free operation, plus caller ID, phone book access, and on-screen call info.
Alpine does HD. Get all the music and programming you want to hear in crystal-clear digital format (with the TUA-T500HD). FM stations with CD-quality sound, AM stations with FM-quality sound, and virtually no distortion. With multi-casting capability (HD1, HD2, ad HD3), you'll hear more talk and music content from the stations you already receive.)
Sirius or XM, Alpine brings your choice of satellite radio inside your car. Add the KCA-SC100 interface for portable Sirius receivers and get automatic Game Alert and Song Alert services, plus convenient program replay and pause functions.
