Sonic Electronix is a Kenwood dealer and Kenwood has sent us the PAC and PIE KNW/USB-AV on our last delivery. While we like to avoid confusion, we are making the announcement that both the KCA-iP300V and KNW/USB-AV are 100% identical in performance and quality as the manufacturer PIE actually makes the KCA-IP300V piece. We apologize for the confusion and we hope you understand we would never substitute a lesser quality piece.
The Kenwood KCA-iP300V iPod connection cable gives you high-speed access to the music and video for your Video iPod through your compatible 2007-up Kenwood in-dash DVD head unit. One end of the cable plugs into your iPod while the other end includes a USB cable, a 3.5mm miniplug audio cable, and a 3.5mm miniplug video cable, all of which connect to your Kenwood inputs.
The USB cable handles the control and charging of your iPod and it allows you to navigate through your music files with the Kenwood's controls. It also passes song info to the display of the Kenwood receiver as well as other playback details. The miniplug connectors transfer the music and video from your iPod to the Kenwood receiver's audio and video inputs. A great feature with the KCA-iP300V is that music and videos travel to your stereo as analog signals, which allows you to also play the Digital Rights-protected files you have stored on your iPod through your Kenwood stereo. A 1 year warranty by Sonic Electronix is included.
Note: Your 2007-up Kenwood DVD receiver must have a USB input, an auxiliary input, and a miniplug video input in order to work with this cable.
If your stereo has this option, get this! I dont even use cd's anymore. I ran this from my stereo to my glovebox, now my ipod is hidden and I have full control through my dnx7140. Music and video play flawlessly.

Review written by Derek from Charlotte, NC
Used with my DDX512 in my Tacoma. But the interface cable is a must for getting full ipod support. Best interface I've seen. Awesome product.
I ordered an Alpine CDA-105 and paid via PayPal. Got a tracking number the same day and received the headunit and accessories. Great turn around and communication from Sonic Electronix, the install equipment was Scosche and was excellent quality. It was a pleasure doing business with you.
