Kenwood DNX-7140 - Demo

When I was in the market to replace my Kenwood DNX-7100 I checked YouTube for some decent demo videos and I never really found any that showed the information I wanted. Now that I have the unit I can hopefully help someone out who might be in the same position. I'll try and make a few different videos showing the functionality of the unit, i.e. navigation, Bluetooth, iPod integration, etc... starting with this one that shows the basics.

Great video--thanks. Just installed a 7140 and my only question is how can I watch videos off my iPod on the head unit? I have the KCA-iP300V and can hear the audio, but can't see any video. Is it a setting on the head unit or my iPod that's off? Thanks..

@thinairthumper You need to make sure it's installed properly (the cable that is). If you don't plug in the video and audio cables from the KCA cable into the back of the 7140 you won't get video and audio. I paid a local car audio shop like $50 to make sure it was all done properly and nothing got messed up. It only takes them like 20-30 min so you might find someone that can do it cheaper.

[alexrowland]

Nope. Just 8 track and tapes ;)

on the speaker select option, can you use all the speakers (front/back) all at once? or only front and only back??? how about all the speakers (front/back) AND subs at the same time? sorry that speaker select option got me confused..

[alexrowland]

It lets you turn of speakers if you want but you can play our of all of them. That wouldn't make sense to not let you use all the speakers, sorry if you got that idea.

[patilabhay]

would this require professional installation on a standard car without navigation on the dash?

Bit the bullet as i found a good deal online and bought the 9140. Certainly no regrets and cannot really compare to 7140 as i have had no previous experience with any unit like this.

Spend a lot of time in my truck and loving all the variety, the full integration of all the functions is fantastic and being able to switch from radio to sirius to ipod or watch a movie as well as having an hands free phone device and all the other stuff. Really pleased. Thanks for your feed back.
