Worth the Money

This is a great head unit. I bought it in order to use usbs and and mp3 cds in my car. I instantly noticed an improvement in my sound quality. The only problem I have with it is that it takes a little too long to load songs on the usb. Great product would definitely purchase again

The Installer

I have been using Kenwood for many years and I love them. I remember the 1st one I bought I payed well over $300.00 for it and it didn't have half the features as this one. You get alot for the money, its well priced. I dont think this is expensive but it is not by any means a cheap head unit. Even the less expense Kenwoods sound great. I love the blue tooth feature easy to program and it works great everytime. I am running a 1000 watt Kenwood am and 2 tens this thing rocks.

good product for price

I have owned this CD player for about six month and it works pretty good and it has all basic stuff for the price. USB / Front Rear Sub with pre-amp and more, i would recomend this head unit because of the features it does offer for the price, it sound's good and it look nice in my car.

Great radio for the price

This is a great radio for the price. The only thing that i dont really like is the control. The buttons are small and i wish that it had a credit card type control. It takes some getting use to the features and all that but over all it does the job and i really like the USB connection. I can connect my ANDROID phone and it plays the songs with no prob.

Works Great!!

I've had the unit about a week, and it works amazing. Does everything i want it to and does it great. love the sleek glossy look, the bluetooth works amazing and it helps that it comes with a separate mic you can put wherever (preferably above steering wheel). Only thing i wish it had was a USB input in the back of the unit, other than that its absolutely awesome and love the customization capability.

Lots of features

This is a great little unit. For the money, you get an impressive amount of features. Love the display! You can either choose a color, make your own custom color, or let it cycle through a spectrum of colors automatically.

Sound is superb with many different sound shaping tools to make fine tuning to your personal preference a breeze. Highly recommended.
