Customer Ratings & Reviews

Excellent product

Easy install with items recommend. I didn't rate durability because haven't had it very long. I will recommend sonic electronix to everybody.

good overall

This stereo is nice. I've always been a Kenwood fan. Pretty easy to navigate through the unit. However when I use the bluetooth my phone it doesnt always connect or it only connects to the phone and not the media audio. Plus this unit really needs a remote to to come with it.

good unit for the money

I have only own this product for short while I knew that Kenwood makes a great products but this one is the bomb I recommend anyone who wishes to purchase a great double din stereo to consider the Kenwood.

Top notch product

Easy to use DVD player, new product, worth the money! Debated between a few different double dins but I'm glad I choose this one. Install was fairly easy too, I would recommend this screen.

Best head unit ever!!!

This unit has surpassed all my expectations and is very easy to use. i would buy another Kenwood unit anytime, the sound is amazing.

Very happy with my kenwood purchase

I am very happy that I purchased the high-end option of the Kenwood screen as it seems adequate but considering it is for a vehicle it is OK. One ugly problem during the installation was the need to set a "hidden" option to enable the use of Axxess ASWC-1. Menu, System, Remote Sensor=ON. I spent hours trying to get the steering wheel control to work. Thankfully Axxess toll-free support pointed to me to the solution. Sonic providing the wiring harness and dash kit is a major bonus to the competition. Four annoyances with the Kenwood deck- 1) Any media source takes at least 10-15 seconds to start playing after power on. 2) Power on sequence always set the screen tilt to 0 and back even with the off and on tilt being the same. 3) The screen shows a 'Check Surrounding...' message with the backup camera. You can tap the screen to clear the message but it is annoying. 4) Haven't found how to navigate a DVD's menu.
Cool feature: You can turn the rear camera view on while driving.
I'm deducting for durability because the tilt/DVD eject mechanism doesn't look like it will make it 5 years. One reason I don't like the system check screen tilting. The less the mechanism moves the better. A lot of buttons on the panel are double mapped- tap is one function, hold is another and marginally labelled. Example: Menu/System Power This is the best labelled buttons.
