[QUOTE="Kevinch, post: 2697146, member: 572105"] Once I made may way through the learning curve, I've not had a problem with the Alpine HUs I've owned - but I generally leave things alone once I have them set. I do like a motorized face though, much more than a flip down. In fact, I think I'd prefer an exposed CD slot to a flip down - they just feel cheap to me. But, YMMV... I do agree on the frills; I'd much rather have build & sound quality than moving color displays. I do like MP3 capability; 1 CD can hold about 8 to 12 albums ripped at 192Kb. It's convenient when you can carry 100 albums on 10 CDs. But MP3 capability, aux input, cd-r capability, etc. is standard on most HUs these days. That brings me back to the question: is Alpine's build, design, & sound quality higher than the competition to the degree that you can overlook their lacking feature set? [/QUOTE]
