Kenwood KDC-MP738U

Very fun to use

It is what I wanted and is very happy with the product. I recommend this.

Good value

I have had this radio for about 6months and up until recently i have no problems.In the last 3 weeks radio turns off and on at random.Who knows what kind of issue this is.Overall it seems to be a good radio for the money,"remember you get what you pay for".

Great deck for the money...

Great shipping time, easy install, did it myself. The deck looks awesome and I can control all the music from my I-Pod over witht eh controls on the deck.

Great for a while

I've had this unit for about 6 months now and it's been great up until about a week ago when the unit's USB connection went out (flashes "Mecha Error" which from what I've found is some sort of internal hardware error that will require the unit being sent in in order to fix). Considering this is the main reason I bought the unit I'm a bit disappointed since I can no longer listen to my iPod, but the CD player still works.

When the USB connector was working, it was convenient that you can control your USB device through the unit, but if you're like me and have several thousand different artists on your mp3 player, then you're going to be sitting there for a while spinning the little knobs trying to get to the "S's" Some quicker browsing function would have been fantastic.

It's ok

Me and my cousin both purchased this stereo and it was great at first. We mainly use the iPod connector and rarely use the cd player. We noticed that after a while the stereo stops playing. At first I thought it was the connection but when I called my cousin he said it happens to him also. Besides that it's actually a great stereo. Full sound control.

Won't buy again

I DO NOT recommend this product. A few weeks into buying the cd player, I noticed when I pushed the buttons in the morning, it would go off, then come back on...then I would try to push the buttons again, and it would go off but it would stay on and I could navigate through the radio channels. At first, I thought it was the wiring job so I had a second opinion and it was fine. Turns out it was the radio. Silly me, being the seller rating was positive, didn't get any insurance on the cd player, thinking it would be perfectly fine. NOPE! Now the screen has little places where no color shows through. Its basically the faceplate. Everything else is fine.

realiy good

the sound quality of the head unit is really good with the OEM speakers looks great

but the ipod controls are a bit hard to use while driving

Great stereo for the money

This stereo has alot of positives. I have always been pleased with Kenwood products and this one did not let me down. Once you figure out the controls, it is very easy to work.
Pros- Screen is very easy to read and see. Options on screen displays are pretty cool. Lights up really good at night, looks real cool in the car. Again, once you have the controls figured, it is very easy to operate.
Cons- Ipod controls are not as easy as I would have liked. You cannot look for a song on the Ipod unless the "random" feature is turned OFF. If you have a lot of songs on your Ipod and you want to play something in the "W"'s, it takes a minute to get to it. Mine has glitched a few times on me. Meaning I have hit the search button and the face will act as if it as has turned off and is powering back up. But the music does not stop playing. It once froze on me and would not play Ipod or CD's. Dont know why but has not done it again.
Overall, I am very pleased to have bought this stereo. And will continue to buy Kenwood products as I stated before, they have never let me down. I bought this one to replace my last Kenwood that lasted me for years.
