Alpine CDE-9843 Car CD/ MP3 Player

Pros: Smooth looks, Good price, Good power for normal systems, VERY USER FRIENDLY
Cons: No built in high pass filter...that's it..the end

This is a fairly long review but if you read it it is very informative and helpful...thank you. Well I originally purchased this head unit from Best Buy a couple years ago for my 1994 Mazda Protege. I was looking for a pretty high quality head ...

Pros: Clear AM/FM reception. Good CD/MP3 playback.
Cons: The price (but you have to pay for quality)

This radio is perfect for my needs. It got a excellent display with enough contrast(white letters on black background). Setup are verry easy to use and the sound is excellent !! It play perfectly CD and MP3 as well. You can pass easely from one ...

Pros: Plays CD's AM/FM/MP3 Cd's with no trouble, great buy!
Cons: Not the MOST advanced, but for the price, its great!

Good Head unit indeed. It's not the best on the market, but if all you want to do is play CD's, and AM/FM and even MP3 CD's, and have a trusted brand like Alpine. Then this is your Head unit to buy. Works great, looks great, not to pricey and it really does get the job done.

Detachable face, CD slot (you don't have to fold down the face to put the CD in) bass control in easy reach.

Pros: High RMS Lots of power CD player never skips
Cons: Hard to see in sunlight

This Alpine head unit is the best you can get for your money. I was going to buy the panasonic because it had a higher RMS but got the Alpine instead. It plays like you wouldn't believe!

Compared to the factory radio in my Honda Civic it plays much louder and you can tell more power is going to the speakers. The buttons and the layout is great too, you don't even need to look at the unit when driving.

It was easy to install an came with the required equipment. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good headunit.

I run Infinity speakers off this and it sounds great!
