About this deal

The DMX8019DABS 7" high-resolution clear resistive touchscreen shows directions, track listings and a whole wealth of information very clearly. Drivers have appreciated the Apple CarPlay and Android Auto interfaces for several years now, with which important smartphone apps can be used and operated directly from the car radio. It offers multiple levels of connectivity, including Apple's CarPlay (iPhone 5 upwards) and Android Auto (Android phone running 5.

Once connected, you can use all the CarPlay features you want, which are particularly good with iOS 13. It also has wireless screen mirroring for Android, which is great for watching videos (when parked up). One particular area in which the Kenwood system impress compared to alternatives is that both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are wireless.Newer cars of course tend to have wired CarPlay already, so if you want wireless CarPlay in those you need a product like CPLAY2air which connects to your car’s USB port and acts as a Wi-Fi bridge to your iPhone. Can play 192kHz / 24bit audio files, also up-converts all AV sources including radio to 92kHz / 32bit and reproduces high-resolution sound. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we are dedicated to resolving any concerns promptly and efficiently.

The Android Auto user interface is designed for a particularly simple and intuitive operation, alternatively to control via the generously sized touch buttons, many of the applications provided by Android Auto can also be operated comfortably and without taking your hands off the steering wheel by voice control. The diverse digital audio features of the Kenwood moniceivers help to implement the brilliant sound of the 24-bit D/A converter ideally even under difficult acoustic conditions in the car. Simple touch screen sound customization is also available with its built-in 13-Band EQ and Digital Time Alignment.It is unfortunate that modern cars have ditched the double DIN or single DIN and the entertainment system is more widely integrated into the dashboard, and include many car functions.

The capacitive touch display installed in the new Moniceiver DMX8019DABS is coated with an anti-glare coating that noticeably reduces glare without sacrificing clarity or contrast.Wireless Mirroring is a groundbreaking solution for seamlessly displaying and controlling your smartphone apps on a 9 series screen without cables or a network connection on selected Android devices. With Android Auto and wireless Apple CarPlay, there’s hands-free access to all your smartphone’s best features.

CarPlay takes the things you want to do with your iPhone while driving and puts them right on the DNX8020DABS display. With three separate inputs, you can select from a range including dash cams, rear cameras, front bumper cams -- and backseat monitors. The corresponding menu icon on the Kenwood device allows you to activate voice control of the smartphone and accept voice commands. However, I am told that the latest version of android includes this capability, so if your android phone can run the latest version of android, it might work wirelessly too. Just tell Siri or Google Assistant which apps you want to use, and let your Kenwood head unit do the rest.

A simple USB connection gives you immediate access to apps like Google Maps, Waze, music, and voice control. Android Auto was designed with safety in mind, helping you to minimize distractions and stay focused on the road. This additional information and the significantly expanded frequency range ensure a fascinating sound quality and an incredibly acoustic sense of space when listening to a Hi-Res audio file.
