Incredible JVC Receiver
JVC is changing audio again with an interesting new video receiver. The JVC KD-AVX77, also known as the El Kameleon, is bristling with unique features and styling that truly makes it everything but blend in. The built-in Bluetooth is a must have for safety and convenience, allowing users to make phone calls while keeping their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road. JVC did not forget about iPods, using your USB-to-iPod cable you can play and charge your iPod from the unit, and with an additional accessory you can play video as well. The most interesting aspect of this unit is the 5.4” Ultra-wide full color touchscreen monitor with fully customizable graphic user interface. You can change colors, background pictures, and arrange the icons as you see fit which is true customization. The KD-AVX77 is also compatible with HD Radio and SIRIUS/XM Satellite radio for those who want to listen to high quality sound. Because of the plethora of features, ultra wide touchscreen and iPod functionality the JVC KD-AVX77 El Kameleon has succeeded at everything but blending in.

The {JVC KD-AVX77} a.k.a The Kameleon is a phenomenal Single Din head unit. With Features like Built In Blue-tooth, Ipod Control, and USB capability, not to forget Clear Fm/Am radio as well as DVD/Cd capabilities. I give it an A on features.
Value: When i bought this from this site it was priced at $464.99. Now its up to $599. Its worth it.I give it a C on Value.
Durability: Ive had this product for 6 months and not a single scratch or dent. id advise wrapping it in a small cloth before placing it in the case it comes with. A+ for durability.
Look/Design: Not eye candy which is a major plus to minimize theft. I would recommended removing it seeing how much you spent on cost. Its touch screen single Din what gets better than that?? A+ on Design!
Ease of use: Takes time to get everything down. I'm not one to read manuals, I'm a guy, we are born to build and fix things (Sometimes) without books. But i do admit you well have to refer to it to get to know everything. B on ease of use
*My Dislikes*
iPOD Connections DO NOT COME with the head unit, Must BUY Separate. along with Satellite radio and HD radio. I didn't know this till last minute! it also doesn't charge your iPhone.
Overall: this product turns heads when your showing off to friends and family. I had Best Buy install this and they hadn't seen anything like this before. Take my word for it. you gotta buy this you wont be disappointed!

That car audio/video system is all you need. I own a very small car (Smart ForTwo) and the space allowed to install the radio equipment is rather compact. This product offer tons of features and deliver very good sound quality. Bluetooth connection with my Samsung Galaxy Vibrant S was real easy, the MP3 music on my phone can be played directly on the radio without the use of a cable, dvd are played without problem. I know lots of people feel that the display is too small, but for me, since my car is so small, it is a perfect fit.
In order to deliver proper sound quality, I used a pair of Infinity 6810cs Reference series component system as the front speakers, and I added up a pair of JBL P953 for rear speakers. The result is a clear natural sound. I used the included sound equalizer to boost the low and real high frequency to suit my aging hearing capacity.

I own one and I have used it for other peoples builds too. You can't go wrong with this bad boy. I've had mine for about six months and I have never had an issues at all. DVD picture is really good on it and for the price you pay with all the opposition you get, you really can't beat it.
