Product 1: Kenwood KDC-MP345U In-Dash CD/MP3/WMA/iPod Receiver with USB/Aux Input

Kenwood's KDC-MP345U is a great replacement for that factory CD receiver, giving you both a USB port for simple connection of your iPod/iPhone or a thumb drive, an auxiliary input for other audio devices, playback of MP3/WMA files (via burnt CDs or from the USB port), and room to grow your system with dual preamp outputs.

User Feedback

- I usually don't do reviews, but I am so happy with this purchase I had to. I searched around for an entire month trying to find the right receiver. I think that for the money this product is hands down a total score! It has an aux and a usb. Now, when I purchased this I was thinking on using the ipod with the aux input originally.

- Bought this item for it's ipod capabilities and it works great. It controls the ipod 160gb classic right from the radio using the usb port. It also charges the ipod as well. The only drawback I have found with the unit is that the tone controls only add or subtract 8db for the bass, mid, and treble. The unit it replaces used to add 12db.


Product 2: Kenwood KDC-X994 eXcelon In-Dash CD Receiver with Built-in Bluetooth

User Feedback

- Appearance of the unit is nice looking. Although it is shiny shiny, it's not overloaded with bright multicolored LEDs or wacky shapes. And it's easy to change the illumination color to match the rest of your dash lights.


- What a great receiver! I got this for my girlfriend's Honda C-RV. She LOVES it. If you want a nice single din cd player that is COMPLETELY Bluetooth READY, and has a USB port for your ipod or mp3 player, GET THIS HEAD UNIT. It rocks. Oh, did I mention you can set it to any color you like, to match your lighting scheme. Thanks Kenwood!
