Hi-Res Audio Made Accessible

Drawing on the engineering and design philosophy behind Alpine’s third-generation AlpineF#1Status system, the HDS-990 brings genuine High-Resolution Sound into a more accessible and flexible format. It is designed for listeners who want a more refined, studio-like experience in the car, with the freedom to build an Alpine Status system their own way.

The HDS-990 is made to work alongside your existing radio while delivering true hi-res playback from USB and smartphone sources, all through a compact controller and hide-away media box that suit modern custom installs. It is a smart, premium source solution that makes Alpine Status sound more achievable without losing the performance focus that defines the range.
