After what I've looked around?
The last radio I bought about 15 years ago. Now in our Seat Ibiza 6L the factory radio is broken. A new alternative was needed. First, I read up on forums and looked at me in the price segment around 100 EUR to. Pioneer, JVC and Kenwood were the candidates that I looked more closely I. What in any model I liked ... and too many small buttons to small display of good play our databases, too much bling bling like a disco ball.
So the next day to the dealer Watch Radios. Immediately many me the Alpine 178BT and 177 BT, the latter had front USB, the former much better display. We opted for the 178 BT and extensively tested today.
Everything works as it should, the display is brilliant, easy to read. Tuner very good! Bluetooth works very well, radio off and on again, a short initialization BT back, streaming works great. Speakerphone works great.
So these are the first impressions. Although we are not the typical customers for this radio I'd say, but we are satisfied seeeeeeehr.
