Best CD Changer replacement? Alpine vs other

[Smokeoc68]

I have a Nav system with DSP and i've been debating on replacing my CD changer and i've done some research and everyone talks about the Alpine w/MP3 and ipod connection. I would like to know if there are any other changer replacement recommended so I can compare them!!!

If you already have an ipod, I would invest in the DICE iPOD integration kit. If not, the Alpine MP3 changer is a great alternative to the OEM changer since all the OEM installation hardware will work with the Alpine MP3 changer! I have the Alpine changer in my X for almost 3 years now and is very happy with it (only wishlist is text display, though).

So you can have iPOD and CD with NAV?

Replacing the CD Changer completely and going the iPOd route is recommended. This will give you steering wheel control and text display on your NAV screen.

We are shipping kits next week that have High Definition Radio built in for even more features:

Depending on your version of DSP will determine if you need our DSP adapter or not.

With the DICE High Definition Radio w/ iPod Integration do you have to replace the CD Changer? What do you mean depends on the version of DSP? How many versions are there?

The DICE replaces the CD Changer and adds iPod Integration and High Definition Radio.

There are 2 versions of DSP, we have a detailed explanation on our site:
