<center><img src="http://pictureposter.allbrand.nu/pictures/zgtt/tt+pics/stereo3.jpg"></center>andthe display has a very nice option that shows nothing a few seconds after you make your audio selction.

I am working on replacing the two white leds with red ones for the perfect hu. (IMHO)

the sound on this thing is awesome.

my pioneer must be a lemon then cause it is sloow and hard to use ipod search features

its easier if I just make playlist on the ipod first. Then reading Alpine reviews, their ipod features are just as fast as if you had the ipod in your hand scrolling through songs and functions.
