Summary: Everything I Expected
Comment: The Alpine CDA-9886 is just about everything I expected. I installed in my Toyota Corolla 2005 with Panasonic 6 ½" front speakers & 6"x 9" rear speakers. I use an iPod Nano 4GB 1st gen. version 1.3 & USB San Disk cruzer micro 4GB.
After the settings its sound great, the display is easy to read. The controls are very easy to use. The iPod & USB controls are fast and easy to use. Don't purchase the Full Speed Connection Cable (KCE-22i), you could found this cable inside the unit box :( Now I have two KCE-22i :(

Summary: I love this radio.
Comment: I installed this radio in my 2000 Celica. I love it. This has the most powerful high quality built in amp of any radio i have used to date. To bad i am not using the built in amp. Right now I have a Soundstream Reference 200 running the stock front speakers (MB Quarts are on the way) and an alpine 200w digital mono amp running an Anthony Gallos 10'' subwoofer. The sound quality of this radio is amazing. Well worth the $100 over the 9884. The D to A is the best i have heard in any car radio under $1000. This radio makes MP3s and 4s sound like CDs. The Ipod adapter works great but i use the usb and store my music on Compact flash (sounds a little better than the thumb drives).
Very easy to operate the basic features.
What i don't like: The blue lights (what happened to alpine green) you only get green lights on the top and the bottom of the line alpine singal din radios. I refuse to spend $100 more for green lights. I had to change my consol lights to blue not easy.
Everything is $200 extra bluetooth, xm and so on.
This is far and away the best car cd player I have owned. When I put in a CD in it blows me away. Any CD. If you can work your way threw the menus. Defeat the tone controls it sounds better. Black out the display it sounds better. When using an external amp turn of the internal amp and it still sounds even better.
A real high end peace. Someone at Alpine is listening.

Summary: issues
Comment: I have been using Alpine for years and was looking forward to another upgrade to this unit. Initially I was fairly happy about the results until the next morning. I was searching a song on the ipod and got a "error 01", this has never stopped. Alpine blames ipod and ipod blames Alpine. I can use my ipod with everything else, including my Alpine in my truck with no issues(truck has CDA-9883). Upon further digging, I have since found numerous others with the exact same issue on the CDA-9886. So, if you're planning on this being exclusive to your ipod, be prepared to send it back a few times before getting one that works. FYI

Summary: Good feature set for the money - some limitations
Comment: I bought this unit to replace the stock bose in a Maxima. The receiver plays my mp3's beautifully from a 4GB flash drive as advertised with no noticible lag. The USB drive cababilities is why I chose this one, and I haven't been disappointed in that. I am however disappointed in the lack of sound adjustments that can be made without shelling out the additional $150 for the compatible EQ system. For this type of deck, I expected more than a bass and treble control. Even a short list of cheesy pre-sets like rock, jazz, etc. would help out. Ultimately I ended up buying a sub because the bass couldn't be adjusted to an acceptable level, without loosing the highs. If you buy this unit, plan to invest in an EQ and possible a sub and you'll be happy - I am!

Summary: Plays All The Medias!
Comment: I just installed a CDA-9886 in my car. I have always used Alpine products and loved them and this one is the best I have had so far. It plays everything, MP3, WMA, ZUNE, IPOD, AUX and best of all USB. I connected my 3rd Gen Ipod nano and it worked just fine. I have heard people have switched back to 9885 because 9886 does not turn off the ipod when you switch the car off. It may be fixed in the future but this is no issue for me. 9885 does not have USB capability and this is important as far as I am concerned. USB flash drives have no power concerns, lots of storage for cheap and so convenient. Why would you want to leave your ipod connected to the deck anyways? Thieves would break into your car for less than that. Anyways, if you need a nice looking HU that plays all types of media and offers some of the best features available today( bluetooth, voice dial..) I really recommend this unit.
