Second unit. Bought one for Tacoma in 2017. Bought a second this year for 4runner. Good amp controls, gain, and frequency, eliminating need for wired amp knob. Nice color options. I went with Vice City theme. Easier than cd deck to install.

I’ve used Kenwood receivers in the past with great success, and this one is no different. Excellent price for the features in which you receive. LOTS of settings, including cosmetic (colors, etc.) and tone/DSP configurations.

The Kenwood Bluetooth Digital Media Receiver with Alexa Built-In isn’t just a stereo. It’s a sentient co-pilot with a strong work ethic and a surprisingly good sense of humor.
From the moment I powered it on, Alexa greeted me like we had unfinished business from a past life. Suddenly my car wasn’t a car anymore—it was a fully operational command center with emotional support capabilities.
Bluetooth connects so fast I swear it predicts my arrival. One time my phone was in the house and it still paired. I don’t know how. I don't ask questions anymore.
The sound quality? Illegal. My playlists have never popped off this hard. Even my blinkers feel like they’re clicking in rhythm now. And the satellite radio readiness? I’m pretty sure this thing could pick up signals from deep-space civilizations if I tried hard enough.
Alexa built-in is the true chaos engine here.
I casually said, “Alexa, play something chill,” and she blasted 80s rock so powerful that a squirrel outside my window physically recoiled. I tried again and she apologized—THE RADIO APOLOGIZED TO ME.
Since installing this masterpiece, my life has drastically improved:
I haven’t touched a physical button in days.
My car feels like it graduated from college.
I’m 89% sure I could run a small country from the driver’s seat.
This receiver doesn’t just provide audio—it provides purpose.
If you want a normal stereo, look elsewhere.
If you want a stereo that behaves like a technologically advanced roommate who refuses to settle for mediocrity—
Kenwood is your destiny.

This is a nice radio, However, I gave it 3-stars because the buttons are small for my large fingers, Alexa does not automatically play music when you start the car until you ask her every time, and Alexa continuously interrupts the music to say she is listening, and the clock has very small font to see what time it is while driving. Also, I don't find it to be very user friendly. However, it does play music well.

I owned this radio for about 2 months. So far only one problem. Every time I take the face plate off the time resets. I own a old 93 Plymouth Sundance. Something nice and shiny. In there would be a easy target. So when am not in the car I take the facebook off and hind it. Other then that. The sound is great mixed with my amp for my sub. And sound settings on the radio is great. Window shaken nice. Alot of power and tech in half the dept of a standard radio. Looking to by one for my wife car. As well.

This was a great experience for me. The radio was well worth it but the best experience was the installers. The guys that installed the radio system with the amp was a tricky deal for me and these guys made it well worth the momey i paid them and done the installation very quickly. Ot looks and sounds just like a professional did it. They are verry professional.

I got this radio for my 1995 Chevy S10 … just needed to get rid of that stock radio. The wiring process was simple and quick. I like that it had everything I needed like AUX, charging port and Bluetooth.

This is a great kenwood unit for most peoples needs, it can be a little complicated for some to set up and get tuned to where you like it but when you do it sounds amazing and has good power. Love how it has 3 pre outs, 1 for sub, 1 for front and one for rear. I am highly satisfied with my purchase.

Happy with the features for the price. Took about 1 hour to install and with the trim kit i purchased through Best buy it looks great. Gives new life to the factory speakers, sound is a huge improvement over the factory radio Installed on a 2012 Toyota Corolla
