[QUOTE="RSVCHAD, post: 2129843, member: 569341"] Forget the motorized face and buttons changing colors. The real turnoff is the lack of time-alignment, 3-way x-over capability and parametric EQ functions of the old 9835 and 9855 models. The ONLY thing the 9857 has going for it is the full-speed iPod interface IMO. Why did you abondon your quest for the older models? I just picked up a 9855 on ebay with all original packaging/documentation for less than $250 shipped. I did this despite the fact I have access to accomodation pricing on Alpine until the 15th of this month. That should give you an idea how crappy I think the new Alpine CD units are. I'd rather buy a discontinued used unit off ebay as opposed to getting a brand new one for a killer price. [/QUOTE]
