El Kameleon JVC Receiver

The JVC Arsenal KD-ADV49 is an In-Dash 3.6 TFT-LCD Monitor with DVD/CD/MP3 Playback options. However, those are not the only playback options on this receiver; it also supports DivX, JPEG, MPEG1, MPEG2, AAC, and WMA. This JVC Head Unit is equipped with a Proximity Sensor, this allows menu and on-screen control buttons to hide when your hand is not near the LCD touchscreen. Built-in Bluetooth technology supports hands-free calling with a compatible Bluetooth phone. The 7-Band iEQ produces incredible sound; also, there are adjustable high-pass and low-pass filter for greater sound control, built-in HS-Ivi tuner with 18 FM presets and 6 AM presets, and much more.

Expandability options are not limited when it comes to this incredible player. First, Sirius or XM Satellite radio can be added on using the optional adapters. This will give you access to many different radio stations such as Martha Stewart and Howard Stern with a clear, crisp broadcast. The built-in rear USB port allows you to have full control with the latest iPods and iPhones, giving you even more playback options. HD Radio provides you with a digital radio signal for a high-definition, high-quality radio signal that is almost as perfect as CD music. SD Card Support and full compatibility with your steering wheel controls are some other superb options for this JVC Receiver. With all of these excellent options, how could you pass this up?

Had the Pioneer DEH-9600bt prior to this. It died and I wanted an indash small dvd screen. Got that. Great picture and sound.

However, this deck is slow. Source to source. push and wait.

Ipod controls. Have a nap while you wait for it to load.
