Manageable JVC Receiver

JVC’s KD-A315 is an In-Dash CD/MP3/WMA Car Stereo Receiver that includes a Wireless Remote Control. If you are looking for a basic receiver without all the extras then this is for you. This JVC Player is equipped with a built-in HS Tuner with 18 FM presets and 12 AM presets, 3-band iEQ with preset tone curves, and a 24-Bit Digital-to-Analog Converter which all enhance sound quality. 30,000 Variable-color illumination display with separated Key and LCD color displays provide an east-to-read menu. The detachable face gives you peace of mind when leaving the car. All you have to do is detach the screen and place it in included case for added security.

The JVC KDA315 is Bluetooth ready with a required adapter; this will allow you to place hands-free calls, stream audio from a compatible MP3 Player and voice recognition dialing.

The product is great for the price you pay, it has a new function that you can change the color only of the bottons or only the display, or if you want all the area.

You can match the exact color of your dashboard and we have to be honest, the sound is really good.

The only thing I don`t like is that the dimmer has to be adjusted manual.
