Two good reasons - sound quality and cool features. A new car stereo offers power that's superior to most factory radios, along with more sophisticated tone controls. And most car stereos offer built-in or optional features that add safety and fun to life in your car, including inputs for your iPod or MP3 player, Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free cell phone calls, satellite radio or HD Radio reception, and connections for building an audio system in your car. An impressive array of features Why replace your factory radio? Most people say they want a receiver that looks great and offers more features. The KDC-BT755HD CD receiver certainly scores big in the looks department, and Kenwood's loaded this receiver with a bunch of features that you'll enjoy: HD Radio™: A built-in tuner lets you enjoy the best sound in free radio, with near CD-quality sound on FM broadcasts. Other HD Radio advantages include the ability to tag tunes for later purchase at the iTunes store, and the access you'll enjoy to the additional programs offered by many stations. Built-in Bluetooth®: This receiver offers hands-free calling and audio streaming, and your phones pair up automatically, thanks to Kenwood's Simple Secure Pairing system. And iPhone users enjoy one-touch pairing when they plug in via USB. Pandora® Internet Radio and iHeart Radio users will appreciate this receiver's excellent built-in controls — connect via USB with your iPhone, or by Bluetooth with your Android, and you can scroll through your stations and give a thumbs-up or thumbs-down right from the receiver's face. iPod® or iPhone® controls: Connect your device to the receiver's front-panel USB input, and you'll blaze through your tracks and playlists. Dedicated "Search" and "Return" keys cut down on the need to work through menus when you're looking for a specific song. Android® controls: If you store your music on an Android device, download Kenwood's free Music Control app and enjoy a variety of search and playback features when your phone is plugged into the front-panel USB. SirusXM-ready: For satellite radio subscribers (or those who plan to be), the KDC-BT755HD works with SiriusXM's outboard tuner (not included), so you can enjoy coast-to-coast reception of your favorite talk, sports, and music programming. Variable button illumination: Choose from a wide selection of colors to match this receiver's buttons to the color of your vehicle's dash illumination. Enjoy your music and shape your sound If you're feeling "old-school," slip in a CD and take full advantage of this receiver's 24-bit digital-to-analog converter. It converts the raw data on your disc, including MP3, WMA, and AAC files, to smooth, lifelike sound. (It'll make a big difference in the music on your iPod or thumb drive, too.) Wimpy bass and treble controls can't compare with this receiver's 3-band parametric equalizer, high- and low-pass filters, and selectable bass boost, along with settings that let you adjust for your car's speaker setup. And this receiver offers three sets of preamp outputs, so you can easily add amps to build a killer audio system in your car. Want to keep your car's steering wheel audio controls? In most vehicles, you can use an adapter (not included) to connect your vehicle's steering wheel controls to this Kenwood stereo. Connect a few wires, then program the adapter for your particular car and this Kenwood, and you'll retain the convenience of your steering wheel controls. Check the "Accessories" tab for compatible adapters. Bluetooth note: Use of this receiver's Bluetooth features will depend upon your phone's Bluetooth capabilities. Learn more in our article explaining Bluetooth profiles. Note: If you're going to use your iPod with this receiver, be sure to check "Details" for specific iPod model compatibility with this receiver.

MOSFET Amplifier: The Kenwood KDC-BT755HD is equipped with a MOSFET amplifier. Compared to conventional power supplies, the MOSFET amplification circuit is smaller and more efficient, and it delivers increased power with less distortion and absolutely zero on/off switching noise. More power means louder and cleaner music at higher volumes because you're not pushing the limits of the amplification circuit. The power output specs for the KDC-BT755HD are as follows: Full Bandwidth Power: 22 watts RMS x 4 channels (at 4 ohms, 20-20kHz, 1% THD) Maximum Output Power: 50 watts x 4 channels 6ch/2.5V Preamp Outputs: The KDC-BT755HD features front, rear and subwoofer 2.5-volt preamp outputs. The front and rear speaker preamp outputs are balance and fade adjustable. The subwoofer preamp output is non-fading. The front, rear, and subwoofer preamp outputs are fixed to the rear chassis of the head unit. Front & Rear High-Pass Filter: The KDC-BT755HD features a High-Pass Crossover for the front & rear channels when your front & rear speakers are connected by the unit's speaker-outputs or preamp-outputs. You can adjust the high-pass crossover from "Through", 100, 120, or 150 Hz. The "Through" selection is a full-range setting. Subwoofer Controls: The Kenwood KDC-BT755HD offers the following subwoofer controls, when you are using unit's subwoofer preamp output. Low Pass Filter: The receiver features a built-in Low Pass Filter control for the preamp-output, when the output is set to Subwoofer. You can select from 85 Hz, 120 Hz, 160 Hz, or off. Subwoofer Phase: You can adjust the phase of the subwoofer output between 180-degrees (Reverse) or 0-degrees (Normal). Subwoofer Level: Once the Subwoofer preamp output is activated, you can independently control the subwoofer preamp output level (-15 to +15) from the CD receiver. Speaker Settings: The Speaker Setting function tailors the head unit's audio settings according to the type of speakers in your vehicle. You may select a Speaker Setting of 'SP-Off' (flat/off), 'SP-OEM' (for OEM factory speaker systems), 'SP-6x9/6' (for systems with 6" and 6"x9" speakers), or 'SP-5/4' (for systems with 4" and 5" speakers). Preset EQ: Eight EQ curves are preset into memory, allowing you to recall the best preset EQ curve for different types of music. Each preset has its own level settings for bass (100Hz), midrange (1kHz), and treble (12.5kHz). You can choose from the following preset EQ curves - Rock, Pops, Easy, Top 40, Jazz, Natural, Game, and User. Note: You can store bass, middle and treble tone settings for each source (CD, AM/FM, Aux, USB, iPod, Bluetooth, and Pandora). Sound Enhancements: The head unit provides further sound enhancements for your car audio system. Bass Boost: The Kenwood CD receiver features a Bass Boost control that can be set to the following levels (BB1, BB2, BB3, or Off). Loudness: This function enhances low and high frequencies to make the sound clearer lower volumes. There are 3 levels (LV1, LV2, or Off). Supreme Setting: When MP3 or WMA files encoded at a low bit rate (less than 96 kbps, 44.1k, 48kHz) are played, the Supreme Setting function restores their high frequencies so the sound quality is closer to files encoded at a high bit rate. The processing is optimized for the compression format and the bit rate used. When the Supreme Setting is Off, the unit plays the original sound stored in the audio file. Volume Offset: The level of each source may be independently adjusted to prevent radical leaps in output volume when switching from one source to another. The available settings range from -8 to 0 (-8 to +8 for Aux source). Key Beep: The in-dash head unit provides an audible beep to confirm button operation. This function can be turned On or Off. Display Features Detachable Face: The Kenwood KDC-BT755HD features a single front loading CD face that detaches from the chassis to deter theft. There is no protective face case included. An optional soft face case (142DFC1X, sold separately) can be purchased for this unit. A face-fixing screw is supplied for making the face non-detachable, if desired. Fluorescent Display: The Kenwood head unit features a single-line, 11-character, bluish-white backlit fluorescent display. Variable Color Button Illumination: The Kenwood KDC-BT755HD features variable color button illumination.

Written By Ken Morningwood, Maugansville, MD on Sunday, March 09, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought this unit to replace my Sony GT-700HD which died after 2 years. Getting familiar with the controls took a couple of days, but outside of that the unit has delivered top notch performance in every way. The sound quality is really good and is really customizable for the different types of music which I listen to. Being a commuter a good stereo is an absolute must for me and the KDC-BT755HD has delivered. Pros: Excellent sound quality and a plethora of options. Easy to use remote. Multi-color display option is very nice. Cons: Display is hard to read in broad daylight, but that's been an issue for every head unit I've owned. Was this review helpful?

VA on Thursday, March 06, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I am very pleased with the rapid delivery time. The receiver and its installation kit were very easy to install. The instructions were complete. I recommend soldering the harness wires and insulating them with shrink wrap for permanent connections. Overall this can't be beat for the price. Pros: Everything needed is included. The instructions are clear and well illustrated. The sound quality of the receiver is tops. The entire installation and set-up can be completed in 2 hours. Cons: Be careful in placing the order. Be sure to include the installation kit with the receiver order to avoid the UPS shuffle. Was this review helpful?

This is an awesome unit. I've always been a Kenwood fan. I have the product four stars because of the screen text. You can't get the clock and song title or radio station all on the same screen. It's one or the other. Nothing really that picky it just bothers me. Bummer this CD player was discontinued two days after I bought it but I'm more than satisfied with it. Great service with crutchfield as always Pros: Easy to use Bluetooth works with android Cons: Doesn't show clock on screen unless you select it too. Was this review helpful?

Great receiver with a lot of features. I was mostly interested in the Bluetooth calling and music but the USB and aux input on the front is cool and the HD radio channels are a plus. The install wasnt that hard other than very little info about my 2012 impreza on the net. Pros: Bluetooth aux USB Pandora app color choice Cons: Changing stations button either seek or manual not both HD radio goes in and out of digital constantly in my neighborhood which is north Seattle urban...probably need better antenna than stock Was this review helpful?

I could not get the Bluetooth to work and then the next day the cd player quit. Cons: Bluetooth inop and cd player inop Crutchfield response on Wednesday, March 26, 2014 Upon seeing this review, our tech support team got in touch with the customer. After troubleshooting the stereo, they determined that the problem was indeed a bad unit. We no longer had any of this model in our outlet stock, so we replaced the bad stereo with a brand new one.

Blu Tooth works well as do the other features. Made a great improvement in the sound of my factory speakers Pros: Blu tooth HD radio good sound with factory speakers Cons: This unit doesn't fit in 2005 Dodge Dakota trim kit fron Scoshe unless you use the metal din provided by Kenwood.

Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value 5 out of 5 Kenwood KDC-BT755HD is great !! Written By Walt H (2001 F15 SuperCrew), Broomfield, CO on Saturday, February 08, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great quality unit. In my opinion the sound is excellent. I upgraded the factory speakers and replaced the head unit and am very pleased with the results. The install was fairly easy and instructions were perfect. The install looks professional and I would definitely buy from Crutchfield again. This receiver had a ton of features and I really like the HD radio. The other nice thing about this receiver is the Bluetooth for older vehicles. My wife said my Bluetooth phone call was clearer from the Kenwood than from my new 2013 Ford vehicle with Sync. Pros: I like the option of having a CD player even though it is becoming obsolete technology. I still have several hundred CD's and you never know when you might want to use one. The power is very impressive and sound is excellent from the Bluetooth (Music and Phone). The HD radio is awesome and allows access to stations I could not access before. I am very happy with my purchase. A great product, with lots of features, and at a reasonable price. Cons: The only nit picky thing that I noticed is that you cannot adjust the color of the text. It surprised me that this was not available with everything else this receiver offers. It has cool selectable colors for the surrounding buttons but not for the text on the screen. That said the text is crisp in all lighting conditions and is still very sensible looking. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Written By Justo A, Caguas, PR on Saturday, February 01, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This was an upgrade from a Kdc-mp242 which I used to love. I bought it because of the bluetooth and HD radio and it works flawlessly. Easy to use and the color options of the faceplate are an added bonus. Excellent hd and FM reception. I still have to try AM radio but the sound quality improved in other areas so I know I will not be dissapointed. Excellent product fron Kenwood.

This is a solid deck that will play music right off of your iPhone or iPod through the USB cable. Navigating is fairly intuitive, but a run through the manual is advisable. Side note: Crutchfield sends excellent instructions with the unit, and perfectly fitting electrical and trim adaptors. I had a bit of unique situation, and the tech support at Crutchfield answered the question immediately with the correct answer. They were excellent--not something you find in tech support so much. Pros: Quality looks, sounds and feels good. Crutchfield has excellent tech support if you're installing yourself. iPod/iPhone compatible. Cons: None--all seems to be good. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Bought Kenwood KDC-BT755HD, matching front KFC-1064S speakers and rear KFC-1664S speakers for my sons 1999 Chevy Malibu for Christmas. Really impressed with ease of installation and sound quality was a lot better than stock system. Son was really impressed with unit and I got a great buy on unit.

When I Called the help line I found that I had installed it correctly. Phone service was quick and clear. Keep your order number, you will need it if you call for help. I haven't set up the blue tooth yet. I am not a technical person. Pros: Clear instructions. The phone was answered quickly. Cons: An old guy like me took all afternoon to install it.

Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value 5 out of 5 Myriad of features and capabilities Written By Ckreuton, Arizona on Thursday, December 26, 2013 This radio is pretty darn excellent, I have to say. The HD radio is one of the great features it has. It must have way better internal circuitry than I thought possible because it picks up stations crystal clear that I previously never even got fuzz from before installing this(meaning stations that aren't HD specific, just normal stations). The HD stations that it picks us are also pretty awesome sounding, with great clear sound and clarity. Another awesome feature is the USB flash drive playability. I got one of those mini can't-see-it flash drives for the radio and created some playlist folders containing mp3's, AAC's, WAV's and other types of files. First of all, navigation between folders is a breeze, but also, it plays all the kinds of files really well without any stuttering or delay or anything annoying like those. I have yet to try the Kenwood control app for Android, and haven't tried the Pandora/iHeartRadio/Aha interactivity, but I've heard from my friend who has another bluetooth kenwood unit(the same model that doesn't have bluetooth, basically) has said great things about the interactivity, so I'll take his word for it. The weird thing I have yet to figure out about the bluteooth functionality is that I can't get bluetooth music streaming to play out of my subwoofer.. the sub line-level out is what send signal to my sub amp, yet only in bluetooth streaming mode does it not play through the sub, so I'll have to research it. I'm outta text space! hopethishelped! Pros: High sound quality, great features, Crutchfield provided every single thing needed to install, cool colors, good EQ adjustability, 3 channel RCA outs(front, rear, sub), comes with decent bluetooth microphone, nice text display Cons: bluetooth streaming won't play out of subwoofer(yet) Was this review helpful? Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value 4 out of 5 Excellent value Written By GarryC, Pittsburgh PA on Sunday, December 22, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Solid unit and an upgrade of features for my 02 Mini Cooper. Thanks to Crutchfields wiring harness and tech support (called about the switched power connection option which I did not need) the install was pretty smooth. I installed this unit with the Axxess ASWC-1 Steering Wheel Control Interface. All works together flawlessly. As previously stated in another review, adjust the bluetooth audio settings set the audio to all speakers otherwise you may wonder why there is no punch or volume to your tunes! For Mini Cooper owners, take the time to remove the dash cover (2 side panels and 4 screws) so that the remote microphone cable can be routed across the dash and tucked into the door seal. If you are going to mount a GPS mount use this opportunity to screw the mount into the dash. Pros: Easy addition to add BT audio, handsfree and HD Radio Cons: Just replaced with a newer model. BT audio adjustment should have not been necessary and was initially confusing. Was this review helpful?

Awesome value, the features are comparable to those in the new cars. The recevier was easy to install and sounds great. I like the Bluetooth feature for streaming Pandora and music from my phone.

This HU is a bit better than expected. The sound quality is better - radio is far superior to the stock 1999 Nissan Maxima (non-Bose) HU. Of course Pandora, BT audio, aux connection are all way better than anything coming from the stock system. Finally hear some definition from JL audio C2-650x in the rear deck. The system was an easy install. There are some minor issues with the case. I had to use the stock screws which are slightly larger as the supplied screws did not thread securely into the HU case. BT paired without issue and I set up three different phones - each work without issue. I ended up mounting the mic on driver side pillar and was able to route the cord underneath the pillar and dashboard. By default the BT audio is only to the front speakers. You need to enter the settings to change it to all 4. Pros: Sounds better than the stock HU even at higher volumes Lots of features - Make sure you DL the manual from Kenwood's site Good Value BT works very well HD Radio offers several more stations and excellent signal quality Make me look forward to driving Cons: Detachable faceplate feels a bit fragile Case is a bit cheap - the mounting screws provided did not fit Depending on sequence (ie. connect phone while in ACC mode, then start the car) you can loose the Pandora connection (disconnect or becomes BT Audio) - This is more of a training issue but it certainly could be handled better.

This receiver was a great upgrade to the indeck unit. Vast improvement in sound and function, without yet installing the new speakers. The Bluetooth hands free calling works simply with excellent quality (I watched a YouTube video on installing the microphone, worth the effort). There is a news program I like to download, and I install that on a USB device, and that too works simply and excellently. Settings are pretty easy to adjust, but not while driving. The station preset buttons are somewhat small and close, making it a little difficult to find the right one, especially while driving, but use improves one's ability to do this unobtrusively , as well. Pros: Great sound quality Price Many useful features and functions (Bluetooth, HD, USB, Aux, Pandora, iHeart), Sirus/XM compatible. Crutchfield provides everything you need to get the job done, along with toll free support if you need it, Cons: Station presets are a little close together. Was this review helpful?

Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value 4 out of 5 Nice unit! Written By Wayne P., Riverside, Ca. on Tuesday, December 10, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The head unit is an easy to use replacement for the radio in your car. It is easy to set up the adjustments with an easy to follow menu structure. Once set, you will not need to adjust most of the choices again. I was so impressed with it when it came that I quickly bought a second one for my other vehicle! Pros: Easy to use controls, logical layout, high quality audio output with reasonable volume. The call quality is good and the external mic helps me to be heard. My last radio made me shout at the radio because the mic was inside the unit, behind the face plate. Now the mic is in the open and works well! Cons: The unit is a little TOO quick to start the app on the phone that is associated with the selection on the radio. If you pause too long (like to read the display), say on Pandora, it starts Pandora on the phone causing you to need to go to the phone to turn off Pandora so you can then start the app you really want. I am sure this will get better as I become more used to the phone and do not need to read every screen. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value 5 out of 5 Just What I Wanted! Written By RobbieL, Pearland, TX on Monday, December 09, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I will only buy Kenwood car receivers and there's a good reason for that. They are just great receivers. I primarily bought it for the HD Radio but having the Bluetooth and hands free calling are a serious plus. For some reason when using it through Bluetooth, the default speaker settings is for front only so not only did my rear speakers not function, my subwoofer did not either. Once I did some searching and found the setting in the Bluetooth settings and not the audio settings all is well. All in all it's a great unit at a great price. I do wish the color of the text changed with the color changing buttons, but that is just a very minor annoyance. Was this review helpful?

AM Unlistenable Written By Dave, Alexandria, LA on Sunday, December 08, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) FM and FM HD is very impressive. However, as a broadcaster, I have to say I was very disappointed with the quality of the AM Bands audio. The frequency response sound like it rolls off at about 3k. Sad since most AM's today are flat to 10k. The Satellite addition is very difficult to operate. Pros: Great FM and FM HD audio Cons: AM and Satellite far below Par Was this review helpful? Yes | No 3 out of 5 Kenwood KDC-BT755HD Written By Anonymous, Union city Ca on Friday, December 06, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Overall an ok head unit. Install was fast and easy. Bluetooth feature is good. Just disappointed that iPhone will not work in Bluetooth with pandora. You have to use cable for pandora Pros: Bluetooth , HD Cons: No apple support with pandora app without doc cable. Was this review helpful? Yes | No
