Well after 10 years, either my Alpine HU or cd changer is acting up. For some reason, if I play a CD from the changer, I get sound only from the passenger side speakers. If I play from the HU itself (cd or changer), then everything works great. Troubleshooting is pretty much impossible since the connection between the cd changer and HU is via one cable (Ai Net). The wire and connection looks fine so I dunno.
Anyway, I have a couple options.
I'm thinking about a new HU and can either go with a CD receiver with all the bells and whistles or with a media receiver that does a bit more. The catch is, the cd receiver will not connect with the cd changer but the media receiver model will.
Here are the two models.
