The screen is finished with a specially developed anti-fingerprint, anti-reflection, and anti-glare film, ensuring that your view is always crystal clear, even in direct sunlight.

Seamless Wireless Smartphone Integration

Experience true freedom from cables with built-in Wi-Fi, enabling robust and reliable wireless connections for both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Access your favourite apps for navigation, music streaming, podcasts, calls, and messages directly on the large 7.0″ screen without ever needing to plug in your phone. For added flexibility and for charging, you can also connect via a rear-mounted high-speed USB-C port. The unit also supports Wireless Mirroring for Android, allowing you to display and control your smartphone’s entire screen directly on the Kenwood display for ultimate versatility.

Exceptional and Immersive Audio Performance

The DMX8021DABS is engineered for the true audiophile. A built-in DAB/DAB+ radio tuner provides noise-free reception and crystal-clear digital stereo sound for all your favourite stations. Advanced Bluetooth® technology is included for reliable, crystal-clear hands-free calls and high-quality music streaming (supporting both SBC/AAC codecs).

For the ultimate in sound fidelity, the receiver is compatible with High-Resolution Audio files, allowing you to enjoy your music with the detail, depth, and clarity of the original studio recording. You can fine-tune your sound to perfection with the powerful built-in Digital Sound Processor (DSP), which features Digital Time Alignment and a 13-Band Graphic EQ to create the perfect soundstage for your vehicle’s specific acoustics. For those looking to build a more powerful system, three high-power (5.0V) RCA preouts are included to send the cleanest possible signal to external amplifiers.
