If this Kenwood Excelon KMM-X704 digital media receiver is a sonic sundae, its premium 2-year warranty is the cherry on top. You can count on Kenwood quality for reliable features and impressive tools to build your dream system. With built-in Amazon Alexa, you'll arguably have the best voice-control assistant available to handle a variety of tasks on the fly. Your high-resolution FLAC music files, loaded on a thumb drive, will also sound a whole lot better, backed by a 13-band EQ and proprietary sound enhancement perks like Drive EQ. Plus, you'll have essentials like Bluetooth for hands-free calling and music streaming.
ALEXA VOICE CONTROL
After you load the Alexa app onto your phone and pair your phone to this Kenwood receiver, simply press the dedicated "Alexa" button on the faceplate, and you can access music, audiobooks, news, weather, traffic, and smart home controls using your voice.
FRONT AND REAR USB INPUTS
Thanks to front-facing and rear USB inputs, you can connect your smartphone for charging while a thumb drive or old music player permanently occupies the other port. And if you're planning to build a serious system, this high-performance receiver offers three sets of high-voltage preamp outputs, so you'll be in good shape when you add amplifiers and subwoofers.
BLUETOOTH...
With built-in Bluetooth®, you'll have a convenient streaming experience with built-in Apple Music®, Spotify®, and Pandora® control. And two-phone pairing makes connecting for hands-free calling a breeze if you share your vehicle with another driver.
Of course, you'll have access to your favorite AM and FM stations, but a built-in HD Radio™ tuner gives you better sound quality from your participating local radio stations.
COMPATIBLE WITH SIRIUSXM
Add a satellite radio tuner (subscription also required) to enjoy SiriusXM's remarkably varied range of music, entertainment, news, and sports programming. You can drive from Miami to Monterey without losing your favorite stations.
