Advantages: Number of features, sound quality, radio reception Disadvantages: Overkill
...front section which just leaves a blank hole in the facia when you leave the car (no Alpine logo, I'm glad to say). Also Alpine offer a 1 year replacement warranty/insurance on the radio if it is stolen from you car after the dispaly has been removed.
Now come the gimmicks. You don't like Alpine's traditional pale blue buttons? Then select the Amber option. How many people are in the car and where are they sitting? Use SPS to automatically alter the fader and balance settings. Don't like the 'level' and radio signal strength indicators? Alter them.

They came up trumps and introduced the Vestax PDX 2300 with added extras for the dj's pleasure.

When I first used this deck I remember thinking how stiff it felt and to me felt quite cumbersome. But with the right slipmat and a bit of polish on the platter, it's a beauty to use!
I don't scratch, but I'm aware of how good this deck is for... more
