About this deal

Do not keep the Apple Lightning to USB Cable (accessory of the iPod/iPhone) in the car to avoid damage by heat. Apple CarPlay gives iPhone users an intuitive way to make calls, use Maps, listen to music and access messages with just a word or a touch. With iOS 12.0 and higher, 3rd party navigation apps like Google Maps™ are also supported. Wireless connection is available on compatible iPhones.

Connect the unit and iPod /iPhone with listed KENWOOD HDMI cable and the Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter, Lightning to USB Cable (accessory of the iPod/iPhone).Connect your smartphone via USB to mirror its display on the DMX5020DABS system. Operate your favourite Apple and Android applications with the DMX5020DABS's touch panel. Apple Carplay and Android Auto connectivity allows you to control your compatible applications directly from the large touch screen head unit of theDMX5020DABS. Stream your music content via Spotify or navigate to your destination using Waze navigation app, which features live traffic updates and speed camera alerts.The Kenwood DMX5020DABS is a true in car multimedia system. Play your stored media, both audio and video, from USB storage devices (See file compatibility below)or stream directly from your smartphone via Bluetooth or USB cable. Take advantage of the DAB+ digital radio and listen to the crisp clear digital radio broadcast during your journey.

It also has an HDMI input (you could run a games console through the display if you wish), as well Bluetooth connectivity for both streaming music or making phone calls. It also has wireless screen mirroring for Android, which is great for watching videos (when parked up). Should I buy one? We'd go as far as saying Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are must-have features on a new car, but now numerous big-name aftermarket audio firms provide compatible devices of some description. We tested Sony's option a few years ago and, while Kenwood's isn't a like-for-like alternative (technology moves fast and that review's now three years old), it is more advanced. a>


The customer is responsible for the selection and installation of this software as well as the result of using this software. In the box, you'll find the stereo itself, as well as a wiring loom to connect to your car (you'll probably need an adapter as well). There's a microphone (for handsfree calls), a USB extension (for connecting your phone) and a GPS antenna for using Google Maps. The 13 band EQ and digital sound processor allows you to fine tune your music to get the best from your speakers and cabin acoustics, it even has digital time alignment so you can get the setup just perfect. So, ultimately, yes you should buy a Kenwood DMX8020DABS. It's an easy way of getting modern infotainment into an old car and no, there aren't really any catches. It looks the part, is easy to operate and is well worth the investment.

When the DNPS function of the center unit is operated, system will restrict title selection or other functions of the iPod for ten seconds. (Will resume in ten seconds.) 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. The key selling point of the Kenwood DMX8020DABS is its Apple CarPlay/Android Auto compatibility. If you haven't used these before, they're brilliant – just connect your phone (via Bluetooth or old-fashioned USB) and you can access all your favourite apps on the move. Or some of them, at least (Spotify, Google Maps and Waze to name a few). data-src="https://cdn.media.amplience.net/i/washford/Halfords Car Audio fitting & installation service" Connect the unit and iPod /iPhone with listed KENWOOD accessory iPod cable, HDMI cable and the Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter.Use of the Made for Apple badge means that an accessory has been designed to connect specifically to the Apple product(s) identified in the badge, and has been certified by the developer to meet Apple performance standards.
