Alpine IDA-X305S If you've been waiting for an Alpine head unit that you can control just like your iPod, this is it. Menus that are navigable exactly like the iPod. All search options just like the iPod, ability to view album art as you would on the iPod and fast song selection as quick as the iPod.
Connect your iPod or iPhone to the iDA-X305S via a dedicated rear mounted USB input, for the quickest access to your iPod. Why bother with individual CD's when you can easily browse through your entire iPod collection? (This deck has no CD mechanism)
The bright 2.2" high-resolution screen provides clear text and crisp, full colour images and menus. The display uses the same TFT (Thin-Film Transistor) technology as do most LCD screens generally found on laptop computers. This makes text cleaner, reliable and easier to read.
Modern iPods and iPhones link directly to the iDA-X305S via a direct high-speed USB connection. Unlike previous solutions, which relied on an analogue interface cable or adapter box, the iDA-X305S's pure digital USB connection provides fast data transfer, quick command response and superior iPod sound. It provides full digital audio using a 24-bit Burr Brown DAC and has a built-in 50 Watt x 4 amplifier and 3 pre-outs.
Hook up the supplied Alpine KCE-250BT to enable your Bluetooth equipped mobile phone to sync up with your X305S head unit. That way you're completely wireless, so you're free to focus on the road. Get full on-screen control and full hands-free functionality from your Bluetooth mobile phone.
The Alpine KCE-250BT is Powered by Parrot for expanded compatibility for many Bluetooth mobile phones. New software can be downloaded and installed via a Bluetooth wireless connection to your computer to support future mobile phone models.
The KCE-250BT's Active Echo Cancellation technology ensures the highest-quality, noise-free sound when you're on the phone.
