Alpine Restyle X009-GM

[Ob1hybrid]

I bought mine about a year ago from a member here, the unit is still going strong, however the unit occasionally reboots it self and freezes but its no biggie it rarely happens so doesn't bug me much. It has all the features I need and also improved sound quality on stock speakers. for a 3k unit just wished it operated like a android/apple tablet... btw does anyone have the hvac option on their unit?? found these pics from alpine

Its soooooooo nice to look at though. 20% chance I buy it. Probably 30%.

I fell asleep and woke up thinking about why the screen flipped out if no CD/DVD slot existed. Then it hit me..you was joking. You was joking right? Lol

No, no I wasn't but I also misspoke. My first was an Eclipse flip tv with out cd or dvd, I used a cd changer and vcr...

Then a Kenwood tv with only cd and an alpine single din dvd player, then, finally, a Kenwood with dvd.

This was around the 1999 too early 2000s, the tvs all had "brains" also that you had to mount. Good times, but things have advanced quite a bit, lol.

Does the shifter block the screen in drive position?

In about 1999 my middle brother paid about $2400 for a Kenwood flip out DVD player with built in TV tuner. It was a KVT-910DVD. At the time it was the hottest shit on the market. He had quite a bit of money from a legal settlement, so he was throwing money around like crazy. I still think $2400 for that Kenwood was flat out "stupid" though. Between the damn Kenwood TV/DVD player, three amps, and all the speakers and sub's, he easily shelled out about 10 grand on his stereo system. I'm the one who installed everything, except he had someone else build the sub box. To this day, my youngest brother still has that damn KVT910 stashed away in a box somewhere. I know that its worthless now, but he worked some sort of trade with my middle brother for it, basically he accepted it as payment because my middle brother owed him about $600 for something, this was about 2005 or so, and its been just sitting there ever since. Its basically obsolete junk now. LOL

910 was only a CD player IIRC, the 911 was a dvd. I had both. Does his 911 work still?

No, it was definitely a KVT910 DVD player. The first one was anyway. He had it replaced under warranty about a year or two after I installed it, and I remember that they did replace it with a newer model, but the plugs were all the same so it simply unplugged and the new one plugged right in.

Looking specs you're correct, I don't remember the part number of the non dvd then.

More pics more pics lol
Are the buttons on the side really hardpressed and make a click sound?

Did you change out anything else (ie speakers amp) and if not, was the sound undeniably louder better for it?

Does it pair effortlessly w phone via Bluetooth?

Last but not least, what about it you don't like to this day? If any?
