Great Head Unit For This Price,
I want to start this by saying I’ve only had this stereo installed for a few days. I’ve have owned Kenwood Excelon radios before and they were always good, this one is no exception. The sound from this unit is unbelievable. You can adjust just about any sound setting you can think of. I was worried at first that it would be very complicated to use, but I have found that just after a few hours of using it, the menus and settings make sense and are laid out nicely. I noticed another reviewer was unhappy that it did not come with a good manual, but I disagree. The full manual comes on a CD in PDF format and gives all the info you need to operate radio. It also comes with a abbreviated paper version that will help with BASIC setup.
At this moment I am only using factory speakers in my 2005 Ford Explorer. I never would have thought that factory speakers could sound this good. I’ve played just about every music genre on this and so far I am very happy. I am soon installing some Boston Acoustic component speakers and I can only imagine how good they are going to sound. I did not buy this from Amazon, only because I needed a factory plug adapter and dash kit, so it made sense to me to get it from another well known vendor that includes these two items as a package deal. I paid $200 and had free shipping. Anyway, for this price this is an exceptional deal on a terrific head unit.
I love that the usb(3 ft cable can be put where you can hide it, and aux in are in the back of the unit, not on the front, that looks ugly to me I don’t want wires hanging out of the front. I have a 2gb flash drive plugged in and it plays great. The scan time is instant and its easy to navigate to find or search which song you want. You can filter by Artist, Album, Genre, or Name. Same thing goes for a cd that you have MP3 loaded on. With the Aux input you can plug in anything that has a standard 1/8″ headphone jack (mp3 players, xm/sirrus)I do not own an Ipod, but the unit also works with that.
Summary: This is a great product and I would not hesitate to buy again or recommend it anyone. You will not be disappointed. If you want to see the headunit in action there are a couple of YouTube videos that review it well.

Great sound,
I bought this kenwood to upgrade from my last one as I wanted it to match my excelon amp. This deck has 4v preouts compared to the 2v of my previous deck. Right away there was a huge sounds difference in my subs. Also this has an acoustics adjustment all you have to do it tell it what type of vehicle you have and it will adjust the settings for you. Also it has zones for where you sit in the car. There are many many other features on this deck. Overall it was an awesome buy and wonderful upgrade.

HOLY OUT OF CONTROLL VOLUME BUTTON BATMAN!!!!!!,
If you aren’t VERY, VERY careful with the remote you can accidentally turn the volume up, full blast. That leave you scrambling for the volume knob to turn it down before you damage your other equipment. Don’t buy this stereo. It doesn’t even come with a full instruction manual. The seller was great. Quick shipment. This is no reflection on the seller. Whoever tested this design before it went into production needs a good swift kick in the head.
