Great Stereo for the price !

Installed this stereo with kicker 6" ks and it sounds great it has everything you need to make your lows and mids highs sound good and it got pretty good output.

Not compatible with all steering wheel controls

When using this stereo with a steering wheel control (yes, the steering wheel control unit was specified as being compatible with this unit) it would not allow the installer to program the Mode button to switch between stereo bands instead of input mode, nor to have the Ch +/- button to switch between stereo presets instead of seeking. When replaced by a similar Pioneer unit, these functions were possible.

Can't go wrong with Kenwood

I recently installed this in a friends '02 Silverado and it's a nice little unit. Packed with features most other brands only give you at a much higher price point. Not only that, it looks and sounds great too. If you're on a tight budget and looking for the best sound and features, look no further, this is your stereo!

KDC-BT648U

This unit is kinda driving me crazy. Always goes into demo every time its turned off. Doesn't restart at the same function where it left off when you power the car down. Always scrolling through menus. Kinda sucks.

Great choice!

I have owned this product for over 3 months.
I have no bad things to say about it, except the BT audio. People I am calling while using this unit say the audio cuts in and out, or I sound like I am in a tunnel. The display is good. In retrospect I should have just spent a little more money to get the BT848U whuch has a three line display.
