KDC-X792

Love this HU, Im a Kenwood man. Takes a bit of trial and error to get it right, once you figure out the settings you will love it, sounds much better than the KDC-5's that I had.

Good Quality w/Pleanty of Features

This is a great unit. Has alot of bells and whistles. Easy to install. sounds great ! Very detailed instruction book ( needs to be with all the features).

Nice, flashy, and does the job, but missing in the sq department.

Kenwood has always been my choice for quality sound on a budget, but beyond the bells and whistles this unit falls just short of what the users want. The jog button is hard to get used to but not unbearable, although not having a mechanical flip face is making me want to use the USB feature more and more everyday. My older MP828 was much more user friendly and hassle free.

Beyond those quirks it is a solid unit. Many manufacturers dumb things down and destroy quality to make units this inexpensive, but Kenwood has a magic touch with competing against big-box brands. The unit has been in my Jeep Cherokee for over five months now and still functions like the day it was installed.

Overall it is a good buy with much stronger features than most in its class. If you have the money then look elsewhere, otherwise buy one.

best bang 4 your buck

i bout this kenwood head unit some months ago and this it the best stereo I've had its easy to use and has alot of auido regulation features so u can get it to sound the way u want it to. it sounds nice and clear with no distortion until the last 2 number but i blame my speakers that are 90w rms and the head unit is 22wx4 rms. over all is a hell of a bargain!!!!

Great Deck At Good Price

The Faceplate has great color i think it has 64 colors on the graphics for the price you cant beat it, and good animations..... figuring out how to work everything was a little tricky but not hard.......both of my ipods work flawless with the usb port.....also sonicelectronix had it to me in about a week,and i sent the payment with a money order...... forget overpriced c*****field go with sonicelectronix they gave me all the tools i needed to install it in my vehicle......great unit at almost half price

Performs as advertised

I can recommend this product wholeheartedly. I bought it for my son and installed it along with a subwoofer in the trunk. He loves the sound and the ability to put his iPOD in the glovebox and control it from the headunit. The one caution I would make - as a parent - is that scrolling through the iPOD does take your eyes off the road for too long. This isn't a criticism of this particular product, as they would all have the same issue. My compromise solution was to insist that he create playlists that are much smaller than his entire library and scroll through those rather than the entire iPOD. I took a point from ease of use because the controls are not as intuitive as they could be. That said, my son has no problems with them at all, so after a short learning curve, it's not an issue.

good buy

i bought this headunit and got it up and running easily. very customizeable display which is nice because i don't like all those graphics. the color of the faceplate doesn't match my car's interior and that bothers me but oh well. other than that it has a pretty crisp sound and a good amount of features. for the price it's a great deal imo.

Great price

This has been a very good stereo. It was installed in a Sonata with JBL speakers. Once you have set everything up for the speakers, the sound is amazing, but you have to go through and set all the speaker settings in the stereo.

decent head unit

Before I really understood parametric eq\'s I thought that it was bad to only be able to adjust one center frequency per band. However you will soon realize that you can much more precisely zero in on frequencies that you want to cut or boost even with just three bands because of the 4 Q- settings. Pioneers are the exact same way and Alpine is even worse with only 2 bands unless you shell out $450 for the cda-9887 or buy the imprint mod. So putting it in perspective to other brands I don't think it's half bad.
