I've owned this deck for 6 months and im 110% satisfied. The options are a little tricky to learn but after a week or two its no big deal. If your looking for a nice quality deck this is it, I run two 12" subs with this deck and with all of the fine tuning available you will be impressed. Another thing I'd like to mention is the Bluetooth option. I mounted my mic ontop of the rearview mirror and with the Windows down and doing 70 mph the person on the other end hears me perfectly. I plan to buy another one of these decks for my girlfriends car because she likes mine so much. Her favorite things are its compatabilty with android phones and how she can access her phonebook through the deck itself. So go Kenwood this decks the one.

Oh and if your a sub/amp nut looking for serious tuning options I'd recommend this deck but the xcelon version. Its 13 band eq as well as better speaker setup options. Go Sonic Electronics!

Purchased this and Kenwood sub with mono amp. Also purchased the cheaper Kenwood speakers as this stereo's amp can drive these just fine. Using the sub for the bass evens everything out. I love the features of this HU. HD radio sounds much better than reg radio and I also get a boost with the sub. You can change the color of the lights to any color. I also like the USB to play as many MP3 as I can load. I recently had a computer problem (no sound) but this was fixed with a software update from the Kenwood sight.

Excellent product.....reliable radio....usb works perfectly.....bluetooth is great and never has any problems to connect with my iphone...people tell me they dont notice i speak through a handsfree.....Fm sound is great....all options are more than enough to satisfy any demanding user.

This head unit is amazing. the features you get for the price is unbeatable. There where features on this head unit that my friends $1500 double din pioneer unit did not have and he was envious of. If you are thinking about getting this product i suggest you get it, you wont regret it. The audio it pushes out sounds amazing even with my stock speakers.

Its a great improvement over the previous model. Setting the radio stations is a whole lot easier. Never had the Bluetooth in my older radio but grew to like it whole lot. Pandora I do not use here Cell Phone cover here is not all that good, on a side note not sure if I like it all time will tell. The radio face is still hard to read in the sunlight, but it is set up well in my opinion. Ipod controls are different that the older model but works pretty good maybe better control. The Bluetooth will play Podcasts from your Smart Phone using your Bluetooth on the Phone. So if you have other Apps on your Smart Phone it will go thru it as well. ie.. iHeart Radio. etc..
Over all I'm very happy with this purchase they definitely have a great product. I have an older model in another vehicle and I'm very happy with it also. They are both very very similar to each other except for built in Bluetooth, XM radio hookup, 7 band EQ, and the way you store and retrieve radio stations.

I bought this for many reasons, Bluetooth being one of them and it works great. I have a four door sedan and with both front windows all the way down they can hear me clear as day. I mounted the Mic on top of my rear view mirror and don't even need to adjust the echo cancellation, noise cancellation or Mic gain. Its a little confusing at first to operate but it gets easier over time. Best H/U I've owned.

I have owned about 9 diff HU"s and this is one of the best by far. I used to own the older model of this and both of them are great! never had any problems with it!

sirius xm

cons -
not sure how HD radio works =/

this is by far the best head unit ive ever owned!. it has built in features that usually require external sound processors. it has so many color options the sound quality is superb, the unit is great, haven't tried Bluetooth yet but the iPod connection is great, makes listing to the iPod easy and sounds great. the radio reception is crystal clear. the downfall to the radio is how the radio presets are set up, no biggie though.

Awesome radio! Easy to use I LOVE the fact I don't need to have my head stuck in the users manual for a week just to figure out how to set the clock. The Parrot Bluetooth is the best hands down.. Clear call quality as well easy to access my phone book, missed calls, etc. This unit has THE best EQ/processor hands down compared to any other unit out there. DON'T think twice on this one!
