Kenwood eXcelon DNX8120
$1,600.00
Released April, 2008
The Pros:Much better image quality than similar and cheaper video head units. Built-in GPS works well and is a great way to save space by integrating the two. 13-band equalizer offers more adjustment than many head units.
The Cons:Fairly steep learning curve to understand all menu controls and settings. Bluetooth connection to mobile phones does not always connect on the first attempt. Call quality while Bluetooth is connected tends to sound garbled.
The Kenwood eXcelon DNX8120 is an in-dash all-in-one entertainment system, hands free driving aid, and navigation system. The 6.95" color touch screen includes a customizable user interface as well as a customizable start up, a feature not many in dash entertainment systems include.

The Kenwood eXcelon DNX8120 interfaces with iPods, but it does not do so perfectly. Earlier iPods are not compatible with the system and the iPod touch cannot play its video through the system. The navigational system is a built in Garmin system that covers the US, Canada, PR, Alaska and Hawaii with NAVTEQ mapping. It includes a remote control to allow backseat passengers to control the system, giving the driver the option to have distraction free driving.
