Kenwood eXcelon KDC-X492

Best HU I've ever owned

I upgraded from my old MP-822. Install took minutes. Sound is excellent. Higher powered preamp makes all the difference. I'm sure this years model is just as good, probably better.

Amazing head unit.

The sound quality coming from this is outstanding. I love all of the features for it to. The front usb port has got to be the coolest thing ever. I put all my music on a flash drive and i never have to use cd's. The head unit is the brains of your system. Without a good one you will be missing out. This is the best choice.

KDC-X492

I wanted to replace my factory deck. I chose the KDC-X492. The USB and the Aux inputs are really nice. I have a bunch of USB sticks that I keep music on. After replacing my factory deck with this, it seemed like my music came alive. The highs and the mids are more clear and sound better. The navigation is some what difficult to understand at first but I got used to it. When the sun hits the display, it is difficult to read. But, the display looks great at night. Overall, this is a great product. Buy it, you won't be disappointed.

This is the one

This is one of the best car stereos I\'ve owned. I love the usb port so I can plug in my flash drive for endless music. You have options to fine tune your sound. Mine sounded great being matched up to Kenwood 4x6\'s and 6x9\'s and one 12\" sub.

great product

very happy with this radio, many functions, plays my ipod w/o any problems

Great Stereo!

I got this stereo for my car for christmas and it is great! I love it! It plays the ipod and you can have alot of presets for the radio too.

great sound

for a very low price, an excellent value and sound, the usb port makes life very simple, just put a pen drive in it and in play. Very fast while reading and playing the mp3 files, no waiting time.

BEST sounding deck I've ever powered factory speakers with!

This bad boy was installed in under 10 minutes since my car already had the plastic adapter and the factory-to-aftermarket wiring harness adapter. I was blown away by how good this deck sounds even with my factory speakers! I'm anxious to get the Kenwood Excelon 6x9's and 6-3/4's I ordered, along with the Kenwood 5-band EQ. I'm almost scared to imagine how awesome my rolling concert hall will sound when I am done, all thanks to Sonic Electronix and their AWESOME PRICES!! I already have a pair of Sony 1300-watt 12's and an 800 watt Rockford Fosgate amp powering them, but won't be hooking up the subs and sub amp until I get the new Kenwood 4-channel amp from Sonic (don't want to lay across my stripped out interior more than once). I totally love the USB port being in front instead of the back with a cable! Like so many of you, I have tons of music on flash drives and it's so nice to "plug in" 1600 songs! My only complaint is that you can't fast forward a digital song with the remote, only go to the next track (is possible with the Control Knob on the deck, however). Yes, this Kenwood eXcelon is the sweetest head unit I have owned in about 20 years, and by far is the best sounding to factory speakers! It even makes my dash speakers sing! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS DECK! Even if you only plan to run stock speakers! And Sonic saved me a lot of money by having this deck for much less than a local store who charged me full price for the harness. Sonic has gained a customer for life!
