Alpine IVA-W505R

The latest double din screen from Alpine. The Alpine IVA-W505R is a full-featured DVD / CD / MP3 / AAC / WMA / DivX audio / video head unit that boasts a new, intuitive graphical interface and touch-screen control over virtually any digital media source in the car, as well as optional Bluetooth connectivity. The IVA-W505R 2-DIN unit also serves as the in-dash docking station for Alpine’s PMD-B200 Blackbird II portable navigation device, enabling you to enjoy the car-to-car convenience of a portable unit while also gaining the myriad benefits of a fixed navigation system.

The Alpine IVA-W505’s 7-inch WVGA touch-screen monitor enables users to easily access and control all their favorite media sources from one place. As an Ai-NET source unit, the IVA-W505R can connect to and control all of today’s most popular digital entertainment sources and communication formats, including MP3 / WMA players with MTP protocol and mass storage devices, and optional Bluetooth hands-free calling. The IVA-W505R connects to iPod classic, iPod video (fifth generation), iPod nano (first through third generations) or iPod Touch via a direct high-speed USB connection. Earlier-generation iPods with a dock connector can link to the IVA-W505R via Alpine’s KCE-422i Full Speed Connection for iPod cable (sold separately). The IVA-W505R can control and play back video from iPod classic, iPod video (fifth generation), iPod nano (third generation) and iPod Touch.

The Alpine IVA-W505R serves as the in-dash docking station for the PMD-B200 Blackbird II portable navigation device (sold separately). The IVA-W505R’s motorised faceplate slides down to a 90-degree angle to reveal a DVD/CD slot and dedicated Blackbird slot. Once the Blackbird is docked inside, all of its navigation features and user controls are transferred to the IVA-W505R’s larger touch screen display, creating a fully integrated audio/video plus navigation (AV+N) in-dash system. Since the Blackbird comes with Bluetooth hands-free calling, the Bluetooth capabilities are also accessible through the IVA-W505R when the Blackbird is docked.
