Alpine Halo9

iLX-F903D is a DAB+ Multimedia player with a 9" WVGA touch screen, without a disc reader (no CD/DVD player). The player is installed using a 1DIN body, but its screen "hangs" over the car's front panel, thus allowing the installation of a large screen in a variety of in cars without additional individual mounting solutions. The iLX-F903D's nickname "Alpine Halo9" describes the unique position of the screen and its 9" size.

1DIN housing - 9" screen

The iLX-F903D body is 1DIN in size, ensuring the player can be installed in any car with a 1DIN or 2DIN standard radio mounting location. The 9" high-definition screen is attached to the body with steel brackets, thus ensuring a stable position of the screen while the car is driving.

Glass from edge to edge

The gorgeous 9" display is housed in a slim case with edge-to-edge glass and a stunning chrome bezel. The touch-sensitive fixed buttons at the bottom perfectly complement the amazing and very modern look and functionality of this player.

The tilt angle of the screen is adjustable

To adapt the screen to the car, you can adjust the tilt angle of the iLX-F903D screen from +45 to -20 degrees. Once the correct tilt angle of the screen is set, it is fixed during installation of the player, thus ensuring a solid position of the screen during driving and when controlling the player with the touch screen.

The height of the screen position and the distance from the instrument panel are adjustable

The screen installation height can be adjusted +/- 3cm from the center. This allows you to select the most suitable screen location. You can also adjust the screen distance from the dashboard within 20mm. After choosing the necessary distances during installation, the screen is fixed very firmly so that there is no vibration when the car is moving.

Works with Apple CarPlay

Simply plug your iPhone into the Alpine Halo9's USB port and turn on Apple CarPlay - you'll be able to communicate, use navigation and use your favorite phone apps. Many apps are optimized for control with Siri, so you can drive safely. Apple CarPlay works with iPhone 5 and later.

Spotify

If you have a Spotify account, you can also use it in your car. Spotify works with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and maintains the same search and music playback functions as the smartphone app. Combined with a great 9" touchscreen, it's a must-have app in your Alpine multimedia system.

Amazon Music

This is a great app for all Amazon Prime Music users. Works with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and lets you choose your favorite music from millions of tracks while you're on the road and control it all with the Alpine 9" touchscreen.

Mobile navigation with Apple CarPlay

Maps will help you reach your destination by notifying you of upcoming intersections and providing easy-to-read visual warnings. As you approach an intersection, the map screen zooms in so you can clearly see which direction you need to go. Along the entire route, large signs and signs will mark the required direction and warn you of how much travel is left. Looking for a gas station, restaurant or cafe on your route? New buttons on the navigation screen will help you quickly find the nearest gas station, restaurant or cafe and indicate how long it will take to get to the selected place.

Mobile navigation with Android Auto

An intuitive user interface makes use easy and simple, including speed dialing for frequently used numbers. Bluetooth allows you to stream music from your phone: audio recordings or even Internet radio broadcasts are transmitted wirelessly to the Alpine sound system

USB and HDMI

You can connect USB memory sticks or other portable media and play audio and MP4 video recordings. The iLX-F903D also has an HDMI input for connecting an optional Alpine DVD player DVE-5300 or other portable player with HDMI output.

Integrated DAB+ digital radio

The integrated DAB+ receiver uses the most advanced digital technologies that ensure stable and clean reception of radio programs. DAB+ also provides many additional advantages compared to FM broadcasts: a much wider selection of radio stations, convenient selection of radio stations by name or genre of the broadcast program.

High-end sound adjustment options

The iLX-F903D is equipped with an advanced sound processor with BASS ENGINE SQ, which ensures maximum bass reproduction and overall frequency balance, as well as many additional adjustment options, such as digital time correction, digital frequency filters and a 9-band parametric equalizer. Best of all, you can change all of these settings directly from your smartphone with the Alpine TuneIt app. The player also has Media Xpander, 24-Bit DAC and 3 PreOuts (4 Volt).

The possibility of connecting to the car Data-Bus

If your car has parking sensors, you will be able to use this system even after installing the iLX-F903D. Alpine offers a wide range of interfaces to connect the Halo9 to the car's data system. This allows you to continue using systems such as the buttons on the multifunction steering wheel, the air conditioning settings screen or the parking system.

Video cameras for driver assistance

The rear view camera is a great helper when parking the car. The camcorder's screen turns on automatically when the reverse gear is engaged. You can adjust the distance guides according to the dimensions of your car. Alpine offers a wide selection of rear and front cameras, including cameras with different viewing angles. The video camera and parking system information can be seen on the screen at the same time, if the car is equipped with it.

GPS and Glonass

More satellites - more accuracy. This Alpine player works with GPS satellite signals and also accepts Glonass satellite positioning data. This is a big advantage when traveling in areas with many high-rise buildings and mountains. Both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto use Alpine's satellite signal antenna for more accurate positioning.

1DIN mounting kit

The iLX-F903D comes with a 1DIN mounting kit that can be used in most cars with a 1DIN standard radio slot. Additional fasteners may be required due to player weight balance.
