Alpine's CDE-102 CD receiver offers front-panel USB and auxiliary inputs, giving you lots of playback options in addition to the CD slot. Connect an MP3 player or satellite radio to the auxiliary input, or plug a thumb drive loaded with music files into the USB input — either way, you've got plenty of entertainment to keep you company on the road.

Add Alpine's optional cable, and you'll get complete control over your iPod® or iPhone™ right on the stereo. Alpine's unique Percentage Search feature gets you through your playlist at warp speed, so you can find the song you want in no time.

Build a system
You'll find the two sets of preamp outputs handy for adding amps and subs to create a well-rounded system. You can fine-tune your sound using the adjustable bass and treble controls, while a built-in high-pass filter lets you remove low bass from your speakers, allowing your system to run more efficiently and sound better. Many stereos only let you adjust your subwoofer level, but the CDE-102 gives you control over the bass bandwidth and frequency, so you can tweak your system's low end to perfection.

Bluetooth convenience
Connect Alpine's Bluetooth® adapter to conduct safe hands-free calls with your compatible phone when you're driving. When a call comes in, your music is muted and you hear your caller over your vehicle's speakers. Your phone stays safe in your purse or your pocket, while you keep both hands on the wheel.

Note: If you're going to use your iPod with this receiver, be sure to check "Hands-on Research" for specific iPod model compatibility with this receiver or its optional iPod adapter.
