I currently have a Kenwood DDX-7025 Double DIN DVD Head Unit and Kenwood Music Keg but unfortunately the music I download from itunes cannot be transferred to the Kenwood Music Keg and it turns out that its not possible to plug my ipod video into my Kenwood DDX7025 and watch movies from the ipod so Ive decided to splash out and get the Kenwood DNX-7200:

The menus look incredible and you can even put on personalised backgrounds

The NAVI should come in handy in the summer when a few of us Guerns are going to the Nurburgring

BTW that therefore means my DDX7025 will probably be up for sale

What sort of money you after for the ddx ?

 

[FiftyPenceR32]

I think somewhere in the region of £600 is fair as the unit can be picked up for approx £900 new and this is a fair compromise.

I may let it go with the following additional items:

Kenwood Music Keg
60GB DMS Cartridge
20GB DMS Cartridge
10GB DMS Cartridge

All prices listed are negotiable and subject to change.

:015: Ouch, i know thats a bargain for someone but they really do cost the earth dont they.

Worth every penny in my opinion. I will never go back to a single DIN head unit now after having a double DIN with a huge screen

I've got sat nav at the mo, but know what you mean. Looks strange seeing normal stereo and cd player now.

what kinda money is the new kenwood your looking at?

 

[FiftyPenceR32]

I have found the DNX7200 listed on Ebay for ~£990 but as Guernsey is tax exempt I will be able to purchase it from a local retailer exclusive of VAT.

Nice. Im seriously looking at a Pioneer Avic D3 in a couple of months time.

 

[FiftyPenceR32]

The D3 looks rather nice, the custom background feature and custom coloured buttons are also very nice although personally I find that the big round knob on the left hand side of the unit is not in keeping with the overall aesthetics of the R32 interior therefore I ruled it out from my new head unit shortlist.

 

[Wayne]

yea apparently the knob is there because it was design in the states, hence it being in a good position in a LHD car :\

The Pioneer Avic-HD1BT looks smoother and it even has an internal 10GB hard drive to fit a few songs on aswell as the usual Ipod connectivity and Satnav.
