Two good reasons - sound quality and cool features. A new car stereo offers power that's superior to most factory radios, along with more sophisticated tone controls. And most car stereos offer built-in or optional features that add safety and fun to life in your car, including inputs for your iPod or MP3 player, Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free cell phone calls, satellite radio or HD Radio reception, and connections for building an audio system in your car. Rock your ride with four channels of built-in MOSFET high power from Alpine's CDM-9821 CD receiver! The Bass Engine® feature lets you choose which bass and treble frequencies get adjusted (and how wide or narrow the bass adjustment is), so you get a more effective match to your vehicle's acoustics. CD-R and CD-RW discs are no problem for this classy deck — it plays your mixes flawlessly. The sensitive MaxTune radio tuner pulls in your favorite AM and FM stations like a champ. Add an Alpine 6-disc CD changer, and your road trips will fly by. You can add extra bass to your car by connecting an amplifier/subwoofer combo to the CDM-9821's preamp outputs.
