Are the search and load times slow for the ipod controls on Kenwood receivers?

Sorry I should have told you the time to fast forward to, I haven't watched it in a couple weeks I forgot.

Anyhow, I also have a 16 GB. It's an ipod touch. How long is the search time exactly?

my pioneer double DIN is pretty quick with its ipod connection (F90BT). I had a pioneer premier 780MP single DIN unit that was a little slower, but not bad.

However, the SD card reader on my f90bt is slow as hell. Like, really slow.

oh, and with that said, i really like my f90BT once i downloaded the new firmware.

I cant say much for kenwood, but you really cant go wrong with either pioneer/alpine in terms of ipod controls

I know, this is my problem - Kenwood makes better units and the display is by far nicer. I wish the **** ipod controls were fast. So which Pioneer should I get?

Any of the higher end Pioneer head units will do. Pioneer has the best IPOD controls by far.

Its not all identical just when browsing through song really fast it takes it like a millisecond to show the name. Other then that it goes through them fast, I don't know if mine has a search feature cause i just pick an album and play through it for a while. When i start my truck it takes only 2 or 3 seconds to load the ipod then its ready to go. Like i said i have no experience with the alpine or pioneer so cant compare with those brands but i had a jensen that was slow as hell. The only part I dont like is when you first start searchig from the list and it starts at A and the album you want starts with S you cant you cant go inrevse to get to it you have to go through the whole alphabet to get there and when my ipods full it can take some time.

What kind of ipod do you have?
