Default Alpine CDA9855 vs. CDA9853

What is the difference b/t the 2 besides display look... I cant seem to find anything different other than that. Any experience with either would also be nice. Also does anyone have the settings for the xa, xb, and tc from the stock headunit so I can adjust that with the equalizer on the alpine decks. Thx for the help.

another thing that is different, is the 3 sets of 4 volt RCA preouts. Also, I beleive, you can change the colors of the buttons.

Napster uses protected Windows Media Audio(WMA) files. iPod does not support these. You would have to rebuy them from using iTunes in the protected AAC format. Or find the MP3 or unprotected AAC versions from "other" sources.

There are other options, but they can introduce noise into your music. That would be recording what you are playing and then encoding that into whatever format you need. There are multiple ways to do this.
