    What exactly is the HiFi module going to do? If the Android issue is not coming for a while, I guess I could just use the regular control module. Seems pretty straightforward. The wife is not giving me too much grief about swapping out the LI's for the ALP's. The trigger is going to be pulled soon.

    HiFi module will just be an update to the standard control module which will add an external amplified speaker and offer clear voice alerts for the system. If you go with the Bluetooth module you really would not need it because both will offer the same voice alerts. We have many customers that dont care about the voice alerts and the standard tone alerts are all they care for. There is no performance or any other difference except the voice alerts.

    Before looking at an Escort Radar Detector you should really check out Uniden Detectors.. Uniden R1 & R3 are the best performing radar detectors for the money.

    The hi-fi module is a stand alone control module that is used in lieu of the ALPConnect for voice alerts

    May go that route then if the Android feature is N/A when I get the system. I like the HiFi module idea, it's good for us coming over from LI systems. We kind of expect the gun ID alerts now.

    You learn the different tones of the current module for LIDAR but I think I would go nuts with false alerts on K band with the beeping.

    Voice alerts I can live with, ps, BRD, will we be able to mute the RD alerts with the Hifi unit?
    EG false alert in the local shopping centre, my SO would kill me if it kept going...

    i think mirage mentioned a patent on the auto mute (beltronics) and alp are working on a solution for the k chatter, yet some user even though they have auto mute, choose not to activate it , may miss a genuine alert,

    if ur running bt and a laser alert goes off and at the same time an incoming call comes in on ur moblle, which is also hooked up to ur car bt, do they both go off ? just a thuoght

    Correct I would be surprised if AL implements this due to the Escort patent, but they maybe able to implement something similar. Ie a city mode or something of this nature. Unfortunately right now we will have to wait and see what they come up with, but they are well aware of the issues.
