If you’ve been waiting for an Alpine head unit that you can control just like your iPod, this is it the Alpine IDA-X001. 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 (5th Generation) to the Alpine iDA-X001 via a dedicated 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.

Fifth-generation iPods with the latest firmware link directly to the Alpine iDA-X001 via a direct high-speed USB connection. Unlike previous solutions, which relied on an analogue interface cable or adapter box, the Alpine iDA-X001’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. The iPod data access speed is approximately 25 thousand times faster than Alpine's regular Full Speed Connection!
