I recently purchased this headunit for my Ford F150 Supercrew truck. This is the best screen I have owned. I have used Alpine, Pioneer, and the previous touchscreen Kenwood. I like the fact I can hook up my I Pod touch and Motorola Android. There are many options to hooking up multiple amplifiers and the built in crossover will improve your sound dramatically. I have the Kenwood hooked up to an Audio Control 3.1 EQ. I have my Kenwood Excelon X600F controlling all my Kenwood Excelon components. I also have a Kenwood Excelon X1200M mono amp pushing 2 10 inch Treo SSP, new on the market, and this deck can handle it all.
The pros is that this thing is a great deal for what it does. You can hook up optional USB ports, I Pods, navigation, BB capability, and all the settings to get your audio setup are fantastic.
The only complaint that I have about this unit is that there are so many wires and they can not be removed from the headunit. I am not using the GPS cable or the USB cable for anything and there is no way to remove the cables from the deck. This can make it hard to install in some single din vehicles. But other than that, this is a great deck and would suggest anyone to pick one up if you can afford it. You will be wowed when you first use it.

I have owned this product for 6 months, and although i am considering selling my car, i am seriously considering making the effort to take the unit and accessories along with me.
I particularly enjoyed being able to access all the features of my i-pod directly from the touch screen
The picture is amazing for a screen this size.
For a small car, this is the perfect addition.

I wanted a great flip screen radio with DVD, Blue Tooth, and iPod interfacing. I tried others (Jensen and Clarion) before buying the Kenwood KVT-614. I bought the unit with Navigation system KNA-G510 and Bluetooth unit KCA-BT200. I wanted to use my iPhone 3G with the unit. Other units would not fully support the iPhone. After installing the unit I was surprised to find that the iPhone contact list transferred and all features were usable, with exception of on-screen SMS, which should be resolved with the new Apple software 3.0 release this summer. The Bluetooth has an external mic, which works well with hands free operation and mutes the stereo and allows the caller to be heard through the speakers clearly. The Nav system works great. Once the phone is paired with the unit, after entering the vehicle the phone is connected with the radio and calls are logged on the radio and answered by clicking the screen. The unit is customizable to allow importing your own photos as a background. Music can be played via iPhone, iPhod, USB thumb drive, DVD, or CD. After a week of use I added a subwoofer and 5 channel amp, which drastically improved the sound. The unit has an auto open/close feature, which opens and closes the screen when powered off. I've had the unit for 2 weeks and have truly enjoyed it. This unit is by far the best single din flip screen on the market, backed by a 2 year warranty. Kenwood made even more improvements to the comparable double din unit, DDX-814, which includes major screen resolution improvements. I would have bought it if space permitted. You can't go wrong with the KVT-614.

I visited the site and was amazed at what I saw, so many major brand products at very low prices. I kinda got mad at first cause I could not make my mind up, because it was so much stuff to choose from. I finally brought a radio and was very pleased with the service.
