I bought this stereo because of the price. It works fine not a bad stereo at all. Good overall except for the volume knob is very sensitive. If you are trying to turn up/down the volume sometimes it goes into your EQ; reason being that when you press the volume down it goes to EQ mode. But when your driving its hard so its best to just use the wireless remote. Otherwise its a good stereo and I would recommend it to anybody because its GREAT for the price.

I like this Kenwood a lot. I put in my girlfriend's 2003 Matrix, and it is a good complement for the red illuminated gauges. Sound quality is excellent, adjustments are pretty straight forward, but plentiful, and the price was great. The only thing that has bugged me about it is that the display tends to wash out in really bright sunlight. For that trade off and the price, it is worth it - great features and a perfect match for the car it was going in.

Overall you cant beat it for the price. The design is good. It said it had a crossover but it does not. Some of the features are hard to find.

This is the best reciever I have ever owned. It exceeds expectations in all aspects. It is extremely user friendly and it was a breeze to install. All you have to to do is wire the stereo wires to the proper plug in adapter for your car, which was automatically sent to me from sonic electronix. Just make sure you type in your vehicle in the tab. I ordered the dash adapter for my car with the reciever and it fits perfectly. It is one of the easiest things I have installed in my car. A CD hasn't skipped once, the sound quality is great, and it is simple to operate. It is simple yet it looks cool. I really like the auxilary outlet, because I can hook up my i-pod up to it. It plays mp3 format and also has wma playback. I also get better reception and more channels with the radio than I did with my old stereo. ALL IN ALL this is an excellent product and I would recommend it for everyone. The price for this product is very reasonable and I found that it was the cheapest from Sonic Electronix after all the shipping charges. If I were to by another reciever I would by this one again hands down.
