I'm considering going with no head unit beyond an iPod on an install.
I could just use the input sensitivity on the amps to permanently set the front/rear fade but is there an external solution for this? It would be nice if it had a subwoofer crossover with adjustable gain, as well. I adjust the sub more than I adjust the fade.
Of course, it will need to have volume control as well, since I intend to use a flex dock with bottom connector.
You do lack the fine tuning, but I did this in our Rhino and it has worked out great. I'm running a 4 channel amp with 2 6.5's and a 10" sub and it sounds surprisingly good. I did this because I knew the sand in Glamis would just beat the head unit to shit.
The solution is the new Alpine IDA-X001.
I just bought one of these for the boat yesterday. Looks cool...how do they perform? Does anyone know if they have a remote?
The best stereo head unit I have ever had. Freat iPod interface, super easy to navigate and use. Alpine makes a waterproof wireless RF remote that works great with them.

Very cool. I didn't know the new remote worked with them. Now I have to take the two hard wired ones out..
Thanks, gents.

I'm looking at the Blaupunkt Melbourne.
It's a head unit, without CD player. The price is right.
I won't need to bring the Ipod, just an SD card full of music.
If that get's jacked, it only a $30 card.
