Alpine

Alpine is a globally renowned manufacturer of car audio and multimedia equipment as well as navigation systems. The company work processes are segregated into engineering, manufacturing and marketing. Being in the industry from the 1970s, the company has been able to absorb the nuances of in-car entertainment to produce quality products and garner a loyal fan following. In 1993, Alpine was the first Japanese car audio manufacturer to be awarded the ISO-9001 certification. Alpine factories in numerous countries use state-of-the-art technologies such as automated and robotic assembly and soldering, automated testing and laser circuit board inspection.

The company has a wide array of products. The CD/DVD headunits and digital media receivers are user-friendly devices that incorporate all the functions into a single compact unit. The intelligent MultEQ technology customises the sound output according to the acoustics of the car. The DVD players are compatible with DVDVideo, MP3 and WMA file formats. Easy access is provided with the GlideTouch™ bar and new Vivid BioLite™ Display. The digital media receiver offers an iPod-like experience within the car. Drivers now need never be lost with the navigation systems that use 64-bit processors and high-speed data buses to almost instantly provide route maps and locations that can be viewed on wide screen monitors.

Bluetooth and USB connectivity enables easy data transfer and synchronisation. Efficient amplifiers and judiciously positioned speakers and subwoofers provide crystal clear sound across all frequencies. Most of the electronic devices are subjected to several intensive tests prior to sale, such as being exposed to large temperature fluctuations, vibrations, shocks and continuous operation for long periods of time.
