Kenwood eXcelon KDC-X592


$200.00 Released March, 2008

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Good amount of sound tweaks to customize the sound output. Sound output is powerful and clear, makes the most of OEM speakers. Display is large enough to be easy to read and show a good amount of information.

The Cons:Pushing in the knobs to "click" without turning them is awkward. Takes a long time to scroll through playlists. Interface is slightly confusing at first, takes a little getting used to.

The Kenwood eXcelon KDC-X592 is an in-dash CD receiver.  In addition it offers USB Direct control, letting the consumer plug in their portable music devices into its 1-wire iPod connection.  The screen has an interactive illumination effect and a full-dot FL display.

Where to Buy

  With a multi-control wheel with a iPod mode for more exact control over the external device.  This system is fairly basic when it comes to features, but this has a benefit.  The advantage of a system bereft of features is that its cost is greatly reduced in comparison to other in-dash receivers.  If all you want is a CD player that can connect to an iPod or other music device and need to keep the cost down, the Kenwood eXcelon KDC-X592 is perfect.
