Review on 🔊 Upgrade Your Audio: Alpine CDE-172BT Bluetooth Receiver - Improved Replacement for the CDE-143BT by Teresa Sparks

The display is pleasant, clearly visible. I installed this head unit on my boat. I had an old Jensen radio that came with the boat. This is an '08 model. I installed a Rockford Fosgate amp and two Rockford speakers. it sounded very good. The only reason I wanted to replace the head unit is the display and bluetooth capability in newer units. I also ordered two more Rockford speakers for installation. I received the Alpine while waiting for the speakers to be installed. Needless to say I was very disappointed with Alpine. sounded like crap. I know it's not a $600 device, but damn it. Since I've been waiting for it to be installed, I can't return it now. I think I could use a new target at the shooting range. Junk I can't believe Alpine even put their name on it. Sounds like $30 Walmart stock.
