A receiver that makes you want to drive more

The Kenwood Excelon Reference DDX9907XR DVD receiver epitomizes what the "Excelon" series is all about. In addition to its superior build quality and sweet audiophile sound package, this receiver offers the ability to connect four cameras, which can help integrate factory and aftermarket cameras. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ provide familiar smartphone interfaces on the large 6.75" high-definition touchscreen display, which can be customized to your preferences. Versatile Bluetooth®, a built-in HD Radio™ tuner, and high-res music capability help make for an infotainment system anyone would love to have at the helm of their vehicle. And, Kenwood backs up this receiver with a 2-year warranty.

An HD display to run the show

This Kenwood's big screen plays video content in bright, clear detail when you're parked. When you're on the road, you can entertain your passengers by sending a movie from the receiver to a rear-seat screen. You can use three dedicated camera inputs for backup cameras, front-dash cameras, and even side-view cameras in select vehicles. The DDX9907XR also includes a direct connection for Kenwood's DRV-N520 Drive Recorder HD dash cam, which means you get camera control and alerts directly on the receiver's display. Kenwood also provides an electronic angle adjustment for the display, so you can tailor the screen's contrast for the best viewing in your vehicle's dash location — all without physically moving the display.

iDatalink Maestro lets you keep your factory extras

The DDX9907XR offers compatibility you won't find in many other aftermarket radios, thanks to the iDatalink Maestro module (not included). In a wide selection of vehicles, this module lets you keep factory features that you'd otherwise lose when you install a new radio. You'll also be able to check out engine performance data and other vehicle info on the Kenwood's screen, even radar info from a compatible detector. Once you've identified your vehicle, you'll see the iDatalink module offered on the way to the Shopping Cart if it's compatible.
