Alpine CDE-HD149BT.. Not what you'd expect with DD-1


Recommended Posts

And the 9887 lives to see another day. I won't be switching any time soon

I'm assuming the 9887 doesn't clip at full volume? I'm gonna install mine soon so just wondering.

Hook it up to a DD-1 and test it... :good:

my cda-117 seems fine.

but it has that stupid banking thing that takes for ever, and its really slow loading songs when you search for them using a usb thumbdrive. Ipod is normal though.

Thing that prevents me from the 9887 is no usb unless you buy that additional usb brain box, and there was something dumb about that but I cant remember.

But it has Ipod functionality though if your into apple products...

I got it from eBay awhile back. It has the usb/iPod cable with it. Just never got around to installing it. But the double din has to go.....damn thing cuts out with high 40s low 50s beating on it.....it doesn't even stand a chance with what's in store.

*sorry for somewhat derailing this (exhausted) thread haha

Well, its official.. Alpine has recognized the issue...

Hi Christopher,

Good news! We have a fix for the problem.

Please contact our Tech Support team. Call (800)-TECH-101 I opened a case in your name. Please provide this ATR number 160404-000124 to the technician.

Thank you bringing to our attention this problem.

Please do not hesitate to call our Tech Support line if you have any questions regarding our products.

Thank you again,

Laurence

I emailed back asking if he could share what they found... This is the response I got to that...

Hi Christopher,

What I can tell at this moment is this:

We localize a lot that seems to have a scattered problem, probably cause by the tolerance of the parts used into the PRE-OUTPUT circuit (?).

I have few samples sent to Japan be analyzed by the designers and we will go from there.

Please get in touch with our Tech Support and we will take care about your unit.

Thank you,

Laurence'

Very nice, they are taking care of the issue.
Alpine took of me years ago with an over heating HU ( CDA-7878 ). They realized there was a bad cap or something and fixed it for free.
