Navigation by Garmin, sound quality by Kenwood
The Kenwood Excelon DNX9140 navigation receiver gives you turn-by-turn directions from its internal Garmin navigation system, plus built-in Bluetooth® for safer hands-free calling. The DNX9140's VGA screen boasts a level of detail and brightness that's steps ahead of lesser models, for vibrant movie playback when you're parked, and outstanding detail and clarity when you're using the intuitive menus and navigation features.
Responsive voice commands
Kenwood's advanced voice command feature lets you control most receiver functions just by talking to it, so you can keep your eyes on the road. Get directions, find a song on your iPod, switch sources, and much more without taking your hands off the wheel. An included external microphone ensures your commands are heard loud and clear.
Built-in Garmin navigation
Expect lightning-fast operation and superior guidance from the built-in Garmin navigation system. You'll tap into millions of points of interest when looking for services and attractions, so you'll enjoy a wealth of information right at your fingertips, whether you're traveling cross country or across town.
Music and video options
The DNX9140 sports two USB inputs and two audio/video inputs, so you won't be at a loss when you want to connect game consoles or thumb drives. Load your MP3, WMA, and AAC files on a CD or DVD, and you'll have a nearly endless supply of fresh driving music. If you add an optional cable, you can connect your iPod® or iPhone™ and control it right on the touchscreen. You'll find a rear-view camera input, and an A/V output is on hand so you can add external monitors for the rear seats.
Superior digital-to-analog converter
No matter what your source, Kenwood's 24-bit digital-to-analog converter sends a crisp, clear audio signal to your speakers. And you can fine-tune your sound using the 13-band EQ and a suite of digital signal processing tools.
5.1 decoding built in
The DNX9140 includes 5.1 channel decoding and a full set of 5.1 preamp outputs, a feature you'll rarely find on other DVD receivers. The sky's the limit — you can build a full surround-sound system to enhance your mobile video experience.
Build a system
Add a Kenwood satellite radio tuner to tap into the huge variety of entertainment, sports, news, and commercial-free music it provides. With Kenwood's optional HD Radio™ tuner, you'll get the enhanced digital sound quality and additional programming offered by participating AM and FM stations.
Bluetooth from Parrot
Parrot, a leader in Bluetooth technology, has teamed up with Kenwood to bring you hands-free calling in the DNX9140. When a call comes in to your compatible phone, your music mutes and caller ID info shows up on the screen. With a tap of your finger, you'll hear your caller over your vehicle's speakers. You'll talk through the included visor-mount microphone, as you keep your eyes on the road and both hands on the wheel. And as an added bonus, you can stream music from any compatible Bluetooth device.
Bluetooth note: Bluetooth compatibility of this device may vary, depending on your phone and service provider.
