Amazing deck. For the money its hard to beat. kenwoods are a bit harder to program, but once you get the hang of it you can do quite a bit. I was amazed at the features this deck had for such a low price. It looks amazing too!

This head unit is an incredible mid-level piece from Kenwood. Both aux and iPod inputs on the front of the unit for simple plug and play and with a little time and effort it is very easy to navigate around and inside the unit. Kenwood's ingenuity is at work in this unit.

I primarily use my IPOD with this receiver, and it works and sounds awesome. This is a very complicated unit if you want to learn all of the features, but being able to adjust the inputs to speakers is invaluable. The unit also has greater power than other units, which may save you from adding an amp.
