Alpine iDA-X305S


$400.00 Released August, 2010

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Great iPhone integration. Capable of streaming music (Pandora radio) directly from a compatible 3G enabled iPhone. Solid Alpine build quality.

The Cons:Unimpressive 2010 offering from Alpine. Crappy for those who have the almost exact same iDA-X305 - just a firmware update that previous buyers don't get. Gaudy aesthetic compared to stock car manufacturer decks.

The Alpine iDA-X305S Digital Media Receiver is Alpine's first in-vehicle unit to offer control of  both iPods and Pandora Internet Radio Support for iPhones with the latest in wireless technology.

Where to Buy
