[QUOTE="Aikon, post: 1151635, member: 556165"] Got my Alpine yesterday and installed it the same day .. First impression was okay although it was "smaller" than I expected. I allways have had problems with getting a Headunit on place with all the kables in the back. but not with this one. The same day I bought a expensive Exide battery (without acid) to handle some heavy duties and set it to charge. I was trimming my hifi and the orignal battery ind the car ran low on power and the headunit turned of. after that .. the subwoofer output was very low on the headunit. I tried resetting, change discs, take the power of, change cable, all sorts of things. some .. multiple times even. suddenly it worked without me doing anything special??? Another thing. I was trying out the swingface. pushed it all the way up and all the way down. but it whould not go all the way in. there was nothing in the way for it to do this. back on it again. reset. nothing. turn off. faceplate off. pushed it manually in and turned it on. before it worked. Another thing I really don't get. when I change number it only shows "File Up" or "Track Up" and then I wait for 4-5 seconds before it shows the name on the track/file. WTF? it knows exactly what number is on the cd if you go through the "file search" mode. why shall I wait 4-5 seconds before getting to see what number I changed to? I can't remember 150 titles in my head if i have a mp3 CD! And why do the HU scrool text when it's not too long? other than that. It's a nice HU. really really nice sound and a great improvement from my old Kenwood KDC-X879. Everyone say that they don't like the gayish Glide-bar on this HU. but I think it's okay. and I like surfing around the HU with it. It also have some great features like the MX (MediaXpander) that gives the mp3's a nice sound.
