This is absolutely true. Apple's DA converter is really good and when Alpine was designing a head unit to use with iPod and iPhone solely and to replace the CD all together they quickly realized that their DA converters in their decks couldn't compare. Android may have more customization compared to Apple (non jaikbroken devices) but the sound quality isn't good. The source unit for your system needs to be the strongest link in the chain...garbage in, garbage out.

All that said, after taking delivery of my BRZ I don't see the added benefit of swapping to an iPad mini. A full size iPad would make far more sense but then there will be TONS of relocation of controls that is time consuming and expensive. Can I do it? Of course, no prob. Will I do it? At this point I setiously doubt it unless someone has to have it and is willing to pay me what its worth to get it done and done right.
