We love this product so far. It is a little sensitive in that it wont play the Ipod on the Ipod setting but on the video setting. Took us a while to figure that one out! The bluetooth is AWESOME. As, of course, the Garmin product. All in all everybody who sees this is envious!

Wow! thats a the word I can describe the kenwood 6140. It has everything you will need for your car. Just have it installed by a PRO! I suggest getting a camera with it! To maximize the product. Radio is perfect! Tells you song title, radio station, bluetooth is working perfect! Crystal clear! Navigation is the best! It has top of the line navigation by garmin tells you even street namesbuy it! Its worth it.

Hard to figure out a rating. I basically really like the unit; it looks and sounds great, Garmin NAV is unbeatable. That all gets 5-stars. But Kenwood seems to have spent all of their time and effort on the details and left out the basics. I think its great that you can change the panel color by adjusting the red/green/blue levels, but to adjust the volume on the NAV system requires digging through several menus. Ive sent 3 different messages to customer service to get explanations on things which should be pretty obvious but arent. User-friendliness rating of 1-star, instruction manual would get 0-stars.

I installed the unit myself in a 2004 Mitsubishi Eclipse. Best Buy wanted $300 more for the unit and about $250 for installation. Very simple process but Id definitely suggest buying a car-specific wiring harness kit (I got one from Crutchfield). I ended up only having to cut two car wires to get almost everything working (I dont have the rear camera): one splice for an optional steering wheel interface and one to the parking brake switch under the console. If we decide to sell the car, we can throw the old radio in, reconnect those two wires and be good-as-new in about 20 minutes. The antennas for the NAV and XM ran unbelievably easily behind the steering wheel, through a removable fuse panel and up through a seam to mount on the dashboard at the base of the windshield. No issues with getting signals at all.

The sales info from Kenwood indicates that the unit is XM-ready, Sirius-ready, and HD-ready. What they dont tell you is that its only ready for one of those three as they all use the same port. Dont expect to access XM and HD.

Kenwood DNX6140 is a winner in every way!2009-12-12

The Kenwood DNX6140 head unit is amazingly useful and easy to use. I looked a long time before ordering my first DNX6140 from Crutchfield, which I installed in our 05 Toyota Sienna. I was so impressed that I ordered a second unit (the DNX5140) from Amazon (at a better price) and installed it in my Toyota MR2. I liked the two of them so well that we installed another DNX6140 (also purchased from Amazon) in our VW Passat. The only problem now will be having to buy three map updates each year or two, since Garmin doesnt yet offer a multiple unit map upgrade.

Pluses include the proven Garmin navigation system, which I was already familiar with, and which influenced my decision to buy the Garmin over some other non-Garmin units. The audio system is excellent, with all the inputs, outputs, and adjustments you could possibly need. It sounds GREAT! I also installed Kenwoods CCD-2000 backup cameras on all three cars, and find their backup camera display on the head unit an excellent safety feature. Also, the backup screen comes up very quickly after starting your vehicle, which was not the case with a previous backup system I had installed. FM and AM performance is top notch. Tone settings are individually memorized for each function (DVD, FM, iPod, etc.) Oh, the iPod interface is excellent, this is actually my favorite feature. The DNX6140/5140 controls your iPod remotely so you can keep it safely stored out of sight. It includes all iPod functions, and displays album artwork on its screen.

Finally, the Parrot Bluetooth interface is excellent. It mutes audio and routes your call through your cars front speakers (adjustable,) and its steering wheel column mounted noise canceling microphone sends out good voice quality to your caller. It can be set to auto answer after a ring or two, and you can program in auto-dial numbers.

Note: The Kenwood DNX5140 is virtually identical to the 6140, except that it doesnt include the Parrot Bluetooth hands-free option, at a lower price. I put a DNX5140, with Kenwoods KCA-BT200 Bluetooth adapter in my Toyota MR2, and it turned my DNX5140 into a DNX6140 but for a lower price than the the 6140.

The Kenwood DNX6140/DNX5140 are both EXCELLENT units!

Would I buy this again? Probably not2009-11-12

Okay unit. I recently hooked it up in my 2010 fj cruiser with no problems. It installed very easily. I am going to make a quick list of the problems I have come across on this unit:

Auto dimming does not dim enoughvery bright at night.

virtual buttons (stereo, USB, cd, etc) are too small to easily utilize while driving.

USB input workswhen it feels like it. (it will go from playing music to reading no device) at random. I have to unplug the drive and plug it back in to be found.

Aux input on the front of the unit does not workit just doesnt work (anyone know if I am doing something wrong? Plug in cable, input to music device and try to play it)

Bluetooth is quite terrible. (using Palm Pre) incoming voice sounds great, but I get complaints that my voice sounds robotic and tinny. I have tried moving the mic to different locations with no effect. I have tried a samsung instinct with the same result. Also, being able to dial from the stereos phonebook comes and goes at randomsometimes it works, sometimes its grayed out on the screen.

The sound on this unit is great and so is the Garmin Navigation.

Its just feels like this unit is buggy and could use some firmware upgrades (mine is current)

Overall it is a good stereo with plenty of options, but could use some finishing. I felt like I was using a piece of equipment in its beta testing stage.
