Ocala Car Audio is proud to introduce the next generation of Alpine Halo 9 source units with the new iLX-F259. Equipped with a 9-inch floating-design touchscreen that sits just in front of your dash like in a Mercedes-Benz or Mazda, this impressive multimedia receiver includes Android Auto and Apple CarPlay smartphone connectivity and support for a variety of digital media file formats. Let’s take a closer look.
The Amazing Alpine Halo 9 Design
One of the biggest challenges for someone wanting to upgrade the radio in their car or truck has been to find a mounting solution for a double-DIN multimedia receiver. The product specialists at Alpine overcame this roadblock with the floating-screen design of the Halo 9 source units. Equipped with a single-DIN chassis, the 9-inch touchscreen mounts in front of the radio location and is adjustable for height, mounting angle and distance from the dash for a clean and tidy look.
Alpine iLX-F259 Features
At the heart of the F259 is Android Auto and Apple CarPlay smartphone integration. This voice-controlled interface makes it easy to place phone calls, send text messages and choose music streaming services without having to touch the screen or take your eyes off the road. The USB port will play MP3, WMA, AAC and FLAC files as well as AVI and MPEG4 video files stored on a USB memory stick. With SiriusXM compatibility, you can have us add the SXV300v1 satellite radio tuner when we install the unit so that you can enjoy your favorite genre of music anywhere in the country without interruption.
Connectivity Options
The F259 includes an HDMI input on the back so you can connect an external video source like an overhead monitor, your laptop, a compact computer or a game system. A dedicated rear-vision camera input makes it easier and safer to park or maneuver your vehicle. The camera image appears automatically without the need to press any buttons as soon as you put the vehicle transmission in reverse.

The new 3M Obsidian 
The new Obsidian tint uses 3M’s patented infused technology to offer dramatically increased performance and durability compared with many other dyed films. Infused technology improves the bond between the dye particles and the optically transparent carrier film. 3M has invested countless hours in perfecting the design of Obsidian’s UV rejection characteristics to achieve an impressive 99 percent UV rejection rating. That’s the equivalent of wearing a lotion sunscreen with a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of 1,000, and it applies to all film levels from OB 70 to the ultra-dark OB 5.

WeatherTech is based in Bolingbrook, Illinois, and its people work hard to make sure that the materials and products they sell use American resources wherever possible. Each FloorLiner application starts with a three-dimensional laser scan of the vehicle. The scan includes the location of retaining clips, fuel door and trunk release levers, the dead pedal and the contour of the floor. WeatherTech’s team of engineers takes this scan and creates a model of the vehicle interior. From that, they design a floor mat that offers as much protection as reasonably possible. The sides of the mat extend up the firewall and center hump of the vehicle, as well as into the door sills in many applications. The goal is to provide as much coverage and protection as possible.

Ocala Car Audio wants to know if your audio system has ever given you an emotional experience. Does listening to a specific song take you back to a time and place? Does it remind you of someone? Music can be very powerful, and having a sound system that reproduces the songs you enjoy with clarity and detail can be truly exhilarating.
It’s relatively easy to install new audio equipment in a vehicle. The magic that transforms a pile of speakers and electronics into something spectacular comes from the way those components are configured. Proper speaker locations with high-quality mounting adapters and sound deadening are a great start. Installing amplifiers that provide enough clean power to let our customers turn the music up to the levels they want is the next step. Integrating the amplifier into the factory radio using the proper interfaces or modules is crucial to creating a system that sounds amazing. Finally, the process we use to fine-tune the digital signal processors we install results in music that sounds natural and realistic.
