I sure do love this thing. i never was much for ones that don't have a nice display like this one, and ill probably never buy one again. speakers sound a lot better than they did with the stock H/U. glare is bad occasionally, but its nothing horrible. screen seems pretty durable, at first i was nervous it would get scratched up or lose its shine but its been months and it still looks brand new. only thing i miss sometimes is a cd player, but the sacrifice seems worth it to me. id definitely buy this again.

The Alpine iDA-X305 is the best ipod integration deck that I have seen at any of the electronic stores. The display is beautiful and the features of the deck are very nice. The circuitry inside this unit makes the music that comes out of your ipod sound as good as if you had the bands CD spinning in the dash, and that was the most important thing to me. The only problem with the unit is that it often comes up with an error message on the screen and I have to "reset" my ipod to get the problem fixed. Not a huge deal, but an annoyance that makes a 5 star deck only worthy of 4.

The older Alpine iPod deck might've been a little more complicated at first to use, but the sound was way better and didn't need any extra equipment to set it up

I purchased this and used for about a month. The ipod features and all the add-ons were nice BUT this unit only has 2 volt preouts. If you're into sound quality, this unit will need the Imprint to get the sound perfect. I took my 5 year old CDA 9825 out for this unit and it sounds alot better than this one with the 4 volt preouts. You'd think for $300 Alpine could give us 4 volt preouts since they took out the cd player but I still love Alpine's head units.
