JVC KD-X310BT

I love this unit.

I bought one of these for my car and really like it. My wife wanted one so I bought another for her van. In my car I also installed four Fosgate Prime 3-way speakers. Man, it sounds fantastic!! For my wife's van I removed the factory speakers and put in the Ford speakers I removed from my car. I had to make a bracket to get them to fit. The sound is better than stock but not as good as the Fosgates. Anyway, back to the JVC unit. The controls are easy to use and navigation through the menu items is simple. Great unit for the price.

jvc kd x 310bt review

i got this deck because ive had 3 other jvc car stereo head units in the past. i bought a blaupunkt (non blue tooth) head unit recently and really liked the things i was used to in the jvc unit. i got this one for the increased functionality of blue tooth capabilities. unfortunately i haven't installed it yet! my truck is having transmission probs and i'm getting rid of it, so not installing any gear in it!

Playing FLAC files

Wanted to upgrade the factory sound system on a Nissan Altima 2012 on a budget package to get some solid sound staging and clarity to play FLAC files.

The configuration was: this head unit+Pioneer TS-A1685R (mounted on custom molded kick panel speaker pods--molding and tuning done by myself)+Kenwood KFC-ST01 on A-pillar+Alpine head unit power pack bridged to provide 2 channels.

Got everything what I wanted for the money spent--excellent!

Things to watch out if anyone is interested on buying one of these:

(1) Plays only FLAC with bit rate of 16-bit w/ sampling rate of 8-48 kHz...so be careful here if you are planning on playing studio quality FLAC files...I missed this and found it by trial and error as the high def files in my collection were not read by the head unit.

(2) The tuner is not as powerful compared to the factory head unit in picking up weaker signals....I wonder whether this is something to do with the dual antenna line inputs to the factory head unit or something like that??? Anyway, this is not important to me as I hardly listen to the tuner.

By the way Sonic Electronix rock...price, service, shipping, product range, etc.... Keep up the good work!!!!!!!

Great features and value!

I've had this unit for a couple of weeks. It's installed in my Jeep. I love the Bluetooth feature. I can play music from my Android phone and answer and place calls through the Jeep's speakers and supplied microphone. I also have a iPod that I connect with a USB cable.

It is easy to setup, but I would prefer a quicker way to cycle through the EQ settings.

I haven't used the Pandora or iheartradio feature but I'm sure they would work equally as well.

Overall this is a great head unit and a great price, made even better because Sonic Electronix matched a lower price I found elsewhere.
