Alpine iDA-X305S

Best Car Head Unit Ever Owned!

I've never been overly in awe with head units due to the way it looked in conjunction with the features, durability, ease of use, and "Does it have the options I want?", but with this one, it's been great.

The mini screen is very eye pleasing and can display various information screens, i.e. clock, album cover info, HD Radio info, etc,. The expandability allows for just about anything my mind can come up with, but for now, I just use it for the iPod interface. The interface is really nice and works well. While the connection takes control of the iPod, the navigation and ease of use on the unit is outstanding and by far the best I've seen. Works with iPhones too.

I've never had an issue using this head unit and it looks great with excellent options and ease of use for novice to expert audiophiles. Mine is in my Golf GTI pushing out to a RF T1000tb with 2 L7's with factory speak's and it sounds great!

Takes some time to learn it, but very well built. So many customization options.

Best Deck I Have Owned

This Deck is great... It has the best ipod integration i have ever seen. The sound quality is amazing especially with the imprint unit added... Everything about this deck is perfect.. Spend the extra money and get this one...

great

Similar to my old ida-x305 but has pandora and is just as good as my old 305 and i can still shake business windows driving by

Greatest Head unit ive owned

I love this unit! i have it installed in my jetta and the quality is amazing. It pushes ample power of my stock speakers(soon to upgrade). The best part is the control you have over you ipod, the integration system is the best i've ever seen. i would recommend this to anyone, it is well worth the money

Alpine iDA-X305 review

Up sides:
Great audio quality. Best I have ever had. Very easy to read display. Best power output for door speakers without a amp I have ever had. the 50 x 4 is very under rated. The sound quality is top notch, and gets even better with amped output. Great as a center piece to a very expensive sytem. Great funktionality with all other media devices.
There are a lot of very technical features that most people probabaly wont wat but if you want the ability to control or tune all of the thing taht afect you sound than this is the deck for you.


Down sides.
No cd palyer built in. Pricey. Not a such a good eq built in
Overall all a great deck if you use indavidual pieces for all aplications in your system. IE crosovers, amps, ipod, or usb, and cd changers. graphic equalizers and such.

I would recamend this deck highly if you plan on spending a lot of money on you system because this deck is no more than the interface you use to controll all the other pieces of you system.

Beautiful Piece of equipment

I had done research on this head unit for ever,It is a very promising head unit alot of people say that the bass and treble dont work ...LIes they work perfectly and have awesome control over ipod a bit complicated but ggreat quality but what do u expect its alpine

gud headunit

I had got this headunit cause of the made for iPod and got so much more than I expected. There are so many features to customize the sound. Makes my 6x9's soud nice and makes my sub pound nice(with a amp of course). All around great headunit

best head unit for ipod

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.

good product

Even thou this is the third time I've done this. the alpine lived up to its name,easy to use and sounds good.
