I had this in my car and it did everything I wanted, good color digital, usb ready, everything. but only once I couldn't hook it up to my subs but all I did was take out the fuse for 15 seconds and I saw the subwoofer input on the stereo again. besides that no prob until a ex-friend from work had a couple of his friends stole the car and took my entire stereo system system. he got away with it too.

I ordered an Alpine CDA-9886 to replace the radio in my Mercedes S500. I did a fair amount of research and the Alpine product seemed better than the models of other car radio brands at about the same price. I had to bypass the Mercedes amp and rewire the speakers (extra cost about $125). But no other choice as everything is more complicated in a Mercedes. The Alpine radio had plenty of power to not require a separate amp. Quality of sound is good. This model is 24 bit; the cheaper models are 16 bit. I went for better sound quality. Radio presets are easy. The strong neon blue light on the radio is annoying. The AM radio seems to suffer interference from some electric or phone lines.

This is a very good head unit for the price and because it's a ALPINE you can count on it's reliability. The thing that I find to be annoying is the volume control button, almost every time you go to change the volume you go into the speaker setting menu because the volume button is very easy to push down. Overall this thing is amazing.

I have had this for almost a year and it holds up like a tank, i got into an accident and it still works. I have it in my 03 Ford Escape and everyone thinks I have a sub and aftermarket speakers, but i don't. It is all stock. I am getting a sub really soon though, so it should be even better.

Looks good, sounds good. Its very bright at night, but blackout function takes care of that. Its an Alpine, they still sound good. I got it and I'm really picky. I feel that it was a good value.

Customer Testimonial

I never order from anyone in CA, anyone but Sonic Electronix. They have the lowest prices I have seen around coming from a company you can trust. Just got a new car, and I have placed my next order for new equipment.
