In 2007, Kenwood achieved data transfer speeds exceeding 20 times the 12 Mbps speed of our previous systems and enabled better handling of the huge amounts of music data. In 2008, Kenwood takes the concept of "USB connectivity" to the next level with iPod 1 Wire Connectivity allowing a single USB cable connection. This "digital connectivity" improves the intercommunication of both music files and song attribute data. KCA-iP100

Turn the car audio system on or off, turn the volume up or down or perform virtually any operation, and the illumination slowly blinks as if emotionally responding to your interaction. Visually transformaing your car interior into a dramatic stage, Kenwood's 2008 lineup introduces a new sensory dimension to car audio with the "Emotional Illumination Dffect".
Added to the current easy-to-operate 4-way+Push control knob, our high-end models come with a Multi Control Wheel, equipped with an additional rotary function.Now you can control all operations via a single control knob just as smoothly as with an iPod's scroll wheel. Kenwood suggests a new method of selecting source and operation that is easier than ever.

The display on models with Bluetooth can also access phone numbers from your phonebook. In addition, the displayshows information such as album and artist's name, plus addtional useful information such as current time and spec analyzer data.
