Breakthrough Kenwood Receiver
The Kenwood DNX7160 is a Double DIN DVD/CD/MP3/WMA Player with a 6.95” Touchscreen TFT-LCD full color display monitor. Blue button lighting, variable color illumination, MP3 ID3 tag display, selectable wallpapers and customizable back grounds provide a personalized and easy to read display. Kenwood’s reverse tilt mechanism with multiple angle adjustments allows the top of the monitor to tilt forward and eliminate glare. The enhanced sound quality of Kenwood’s DNX-7160 comes from the System Q-EX sound shaper, 3-band parametric EQ with 6 preset tone curves, 24-bit digital to analog converter, and the built-in decoding for 5.1 Dolby Digital. The built in CR-2 Tuner supplies you with 18 FM presets and 6 AM presets, allowing you to program all your favorite radio stations to this receiver.
This Kenwood Receiver has built-in GPS Navigation supported by Garmin and built-in Handsfree Bluetooth. The GPS Navigation is pre-loaded with maps of Canada, USA, Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico. It is also MSN Direct and TMC Traffic ready. The Bluetooth features a noise canceling microphone and allows you to register up to 5 Bluetooth ready phones; you can also hold up to 1000 phone numbers for each registered phone.
Expandability options for this Player are not limited. Sirius and XM Satellite radio has two packages if you are interested in those services. With the built-in rear USB port, you will have full control with the latest iPods and iPhones, giving you even more playback options. HD Radio and full compatibility with your steering wheel controls are just some other expandability options that make the Kenwood DNX7160 a breakthrough receiver in 2010.

Great options and well worth the investment for older vehicles that do not have rear camera/sat radio/gps, etc etc. Biggest complaint is that it does TOO much and VERY hard to use interface (especially while moving). Bar at bottom of unit is very sensitive to touch and constantly hitting wrong buttons. That and the blue-tooth function is skittish, only 1/2 the time does my phone/unit stay connected... Still a good buy though.

Has the potential to be a great unit.
Pros: Lots of features, easy to use, sounds great.
Cons: maps are expensive to upgrade, don't get all the garmin features (e.g. new voices), can be confusing to operate. Build quality is OK but my unit failed after 11 months of working fine.
