Digital radio DAB+

DAB+, also known as Digital Audio Broadcasting Plus, provides crystal-clear audio quality and interference-free reception. DAB+ uses the AAC+ audio codec, which allows for greater compression without loss of audio quality and is comparable with CD audio quality. It uses a more efficient coding system to transmit digital data resulting in more stations being able to broadcast on the same frequency and allows for the delivery real time data services such as such as the station name and logo, presenter, song title and album artwork.

Audio settings, such as Time Alignment and EQ setting can also be done with the KENWOOD Remote application’s easy to use graphic user interface.

 

Sound Tuning Technology

Digital Time Alignment: Allows you to digitally delay the closest speakers so that the sound of every speaker reaches your ears at the same time. It makes the sound move to the front top of dashboard in order to get the best stereo imaging & soundstage.

13-Band Graphic Equaliser: In Preset Mode, you can select one of the equaliser preset curves. Choose the User Mode to fine tune front and rear channels individually according to your preferences and compensate for tonal differences between the front and rear speakers arising from installation positions and size. The result is a natural audio reproduction environment and enhanced listening enjoyment for you.

Drive Equalizer: Road noise is the enemy of all audio systems found in vehicles. The inherent frequencies of road noise masks a wide range of the audio signal found in music, and this is the reason Kenwood engineers developed Drive EQ. Drive EQ boosts specific frequencies in the audio signal to compensate the negative impact of road noise.

 

 3 RCA Preouts with 5.0 High Voltage Output

3 RCA (left & right) Preouts: Front/Rear/Subwoofer with 5.0 High Voltage Output, to upgrade your audio system with power amplifiers.
For those seeking a dedicated audio solution, power amplifiers significantly improve sound quality, enhancing the audio experience and making it more enjoyable.

 

USB & AUX connectors right up front for added convenience

AUX input to connect a portable audio player. The USB input will allow you to charge and control the music playback of your select Mass Storage Class devices like smartphones and USB flash drives. For dust prevention, a door / cover has also been adopted.

 

Higher Contrast & Wider Viewing Angle

Vertical Alignment Display improves the LCD performance with Higher Contrast & Wider Viewing Angle under whichever lighting condition including direct sunlight. Also, closer gap between LCD and front glass makes the appearance more attractive.
