Good deal

The following review is for a previous version (KDC-BT558U).

If one is looking for a inexpensive radio and want Kenwood, then this is the one. Nothing high tech, just a basic CD radio.

Kenwood KDC-BT558U

The following review is for a previous version (KDC-BT558U).

Very helpful crew at Sonic in identifying my needs. I was even provided a discount I did not ask for so that is always a pleasant surprise. Thank-you!

The Kenwood is a perfect solution for what I needed. My Iphone 5 connected instantly via Bluetooth and the unit has more features than I really need - but someday I'll get to know and use them. The tuner was a great upgrade along with the sound quality. I have yet to replace my factory speakers but after the easy install it made a noticeable improvement in sound quality.

I scoffed at the remote control but it certainly makes fiddling with the multitude of options a pleasure now - especially in this hands-free society.

I do miss my steering wheel controls and wish the supporting units were not so expensive.

Awesome!

The following review is for a previous version (KDC-BT558U).

Along with having everything needed for installation, the installation of this production was definitely straight forward. The only thing that isn't mention for my model of vehicle installation is that if there is a factory amplifier that must be removed prior to installation of head unit.
