    Put this into my 05 Civic to swap out and older Kenwood unit with no Aux. It was a direct swap and easy to install. Great features. HD Radio, Pandora, iHeart Radio and USB/AUX. NOTE: does not have a CD Drive. Sounds good and easy to use, with a remote too! Only con (and its a big one to me) is that in ANY type of daylight (not even sunlight) the display is almost impossible to read. Ive considered swapping it out with other Kenwood units however all of them seem to suffer this issue reading reviews.

    I am going to first of all say that this Kenwood DOES NOT have a CD player!! If that is ok then check out this unit as it sounds great and is loaded with features to include dual Bluetooth with NFC and HD radio. The HD radio is what sold me on this unit VS the 315. I enjoy the morning show on the local 104.7 and it is nice having it in HD. By the way the tuner is AWESOME in how well it picks up stations!!! even a station called 97X comes in very clear. I have had lots of trouble picking up this station clearly in the past. I was told by multiple people that HD is lousy in the fact that it never holds the HD signal. This is not true with this radio. HD works perfect with stations that support it. Once last note though. When I first installed this unit the noise floor was awful. Kenwood is aware of this and has released a firmware update. Updating the firmware resolved this issue.

    I installed this on my boat. Like the fact it has a removable head unit minimizes theft. It was easy to install myself. Sounds great with 4 speakers on my 21 footer. Bluetooth or usb connection to my phone simple. Every option that I want yet it has the simplicity that I need. It actually cranks without an amplifier. My only wish is the brightness of the lettering - in the sun sometimes hard to see.

    Bought it as a present for my son at Christmas. Installed easily. It has options to change the display color to match your liking. The preset eq settings are good. Is a bluetooth receiver and does have a usb input too. NOTE: DOES NOT HAVE A CD PLAYER - but most people use their devices anyways. Decent sound, good control. Paired with a JBL Club amplifier.

    Bought this stereo for my 98 Ford Ranger. Wanted to have Bluetooth stereo for easy connection. This unit does not disappoint!! Very easy to install and setup. The sound is amazing and it's super easy to use. Recently purchased a 92 Mustang and will be putting this same head unit into my car.

    Excellent Car Audio Unit

    I researched several car audio decks before actually going into the store. I narrowed them down to 3 units beforehand, then armed with questions, went to my local Best Buy. The salesperson was knowledgeable and led me to this unit. I self installed with the parts recommended by the salesperson. Very easy install, quicker than I thought. Once I turned it on and programmed everything, I've been very happy with the deck. Easy to operate, decent layout of the controls and great audio quality. I did find, the included remote control to be easier to operate the volume, so I find myself using that more than the knob on the deck itself.

    The sound quality is good, power output is good, the way it looks is good. The thing I don't like about it is how difficult it was to figure out and still currently use the EQ. It's confusing, over complicated, and conveyed bad. You don't even understand what you're adjusting while you're adjusting it. Other than that though 10/10. Great price. Great product minus the EQ and settings.

    This is by far the best single din receiver that I could find. It has everything that is needed in a car today. I seen a bunch of different reviews complaining about NO CD deck on this receiver, why not complain about not being able to read the description where it states NO CD deck. This is a great deck that has everything I wanted and it was super easy to install it myself (and saved me a few $$ doing it myself). Unless you have to have a CD deck you can't go wrong with this Stereo. Please don't tell my wife, but I think I love this deck as much as I love her (LMAO Just joking) my new deck does not complain as much. I hope this helps you to get the one you are looking for.

    System works great and sound is awesome. Had the Geek Squad guy hook it up to Alpine speakers in the rear and Kickers in the front. Also wired in an Alpine mini amp. Sound clarity is great. Bluetooth connection as well as USB work great and no issues connecting. Love the way it switches to incoming phone calls and ease of use.

    This is a great radio I picked this unit because I didn't need a CD player. It's Bluetooth connects real fast, no settings to go through it's all automatic. The color customization is cool too. The screen can be a little hard to see in sunlight while wearing sunglasses but that's not to bad.

    I am very happy with my purchase of the Kenwood HD Radio, it sounds great and once you sinc your phone and a additional one if you want, you never have to touch your phone to listen to Pandora or I Heart Radio, or for that matter your phone's playlist. No complaints

    The duo Bluetooth connection is great for double DJ's on long car rides. HD radio is a big plus too! The sound adjustability is amazing for all the true stereo heads out there, plus the price is what won me over!

    We were looking for a lower cost stereo but with good quality. This stereo has the ability to pair with two phones at once. We are able to use one for music and the other for GPS. The install was fast and looks amazing!

    I would recommend Kenwood recievers to anyone. I absolutely love this deck. I can control my subwoofers gain and also turn them off if need be. This deck allows you to even set the size speakers you have to get the most out of them. It doesn't have a CD player but honestly who has them anymore? Lol. It has plenty of options and does satellite radio and reads audio files from USB, iPhone and androids.

    This media player sounds great. I never used the CD on my last Kenwood so this seemed like a great fit. It was also the cheapest way to get HD radio, Bluetooth, and 4volt preouts.
