Kenwood DMX129BT MultiMedia Receiver (No CD) with Bluetooth

Big screen that fits more applications

Drivers in search of a solid upgrade at a more wallet-friendly price will find Kenwood's DMX129BT multimedia receiver with its 6.75" capacitive touchscreen display to be a satisfying addition to their dash. You'll also have a lot of other great options, including hands-free calling, music streaming, and playback of music and video files stored on USB flash drives. Kenwood also gave the DMX129BT an incredibly shallow chassis (2-15/16" deep) for a better fit in challenging dashboards.

Simple touchscreen controls provide an easy way to play music and tweak your sound.

The best of your phone in your dash

When you're parked and the parking brake is engaged, plug in your Android™ via USB and connect via Bluetooth®, and you'll see a mirror image of your smartphone screen using Kenwood's free "Mirroring OB for Kenwood" app. Your apps will work the same way they do on your phone. And iPhone® users, you can also plug in to get access to all music, audiobooks, and podcasts. The USB port also charges your phone while you listen.

The best of Bluetooth

Built-in Bluetooth means you can wirelessly pair your phone with the DMX129BT to conduct hands-free calling and stream music, podcasts, and more from your favorite services. Kenwood includes a wired microphone so your contacts will hear you loud and clear during phone calls.

Backup cam input and HD video capability

These days, vehicle cameras are a must for safer driving, and Kenwood gives you a dedicated input for adding a backup cam. It'll even show parking guidelines for compatible cameras. And if you have high-def video files loaded onto a flash drive, this Kenwood will play them in bright and clear detail when you're parked. When you're on the road, you can entertain your passengers by sending a movie from the receiver to a rear-seat screen while you enjoy your music up front.

Shape your sound from your dash

This receiver's suite of sound-crafting tools include a 13-band equalizer, deep crossover settings, and built-in digital time alignment to ensure your seat is the sweet spot. Bring back the depth and detail for all your digital music sources with this receiver's processing power. The DMX129BT also includes five 2-volt RCA preamp outputs so you'll have plenty of flexibility when it's time to add amplifiers to your system.
