Great Sound!

The following review is for a previous version (DDX392).

Easy to install and easier yet to listen to. All systems function as desribed and screen looks good too.

So far so good

Installation of the radio itself was not that difficult. The Axxess/Metra connections are tricky for a first-time installer. I installed the unit in a 2003 Chevy Avalanche. The pros are: 1) the music sounds much better than the OEM with the Bose speakers. 2) Bluetooth syncs easily. 3) Handsfree calling is very good. 4) Sirius capabilities are excellent. 5) The AM/FM is OEM quality, at least in an urban area. 6) The AV input is very good. The cons are: 1) I was sold a METRA adapter that caused static. Always use separate steering wheel control adapter, not a combined unit. 2)The USB playback of music is rudimentary and slower than a Walkman. 3) The preset program on the steering wheel control does not convert. 4) The back-up camera is quick, but the video is not HD quality, but it may be my camera. Every aftermarket radio seems to have a downside and for me it is the playback of USB music, as I have a large electronic library. We have a Jeep Grand Cherokee, with an OEM radio that would have been my first choice for USB playback, but it supposedly is made by Harmon Kardon and I could not locate it anywhere. At some point Kenwood and its competitors need to step up to the plate with electronic music, as it is 2016, not 2006.
