Variable-Color Illumination
Variable-Color Illumination lets you get just the look you want, or match your vehicle's interior lighting, offering 30 preset color choices--or customize your own from over 30,000 variations.

CD and MP3/WMA Playback
Enjoy your favorite CDs or burnt CD-R/RWs, or get more bang for your buck with MP3/WMA discs--burn hours of music to one disc and get ID3-TAG support for display of artist and song info.

AM/FM Radio with HS-IVi Tuner
Sometimes you just want to listen to the radio. The KD-R300's AM/FM radio features automatic presetting of strongest signals and 6 presets for each band.

The HS-IVi tuner features higher sensitivity, thanks to three IF bandwidths (wide, middle and narrow). It also includes AM Noise Canceller plus upgraded IF filters that help avoid the distortion caused by interference from adjacent stations.

To get even more from the airwaves, add JVC optional hardware for HD Radio or SAT Radio reception.

Dial in Your Sound
Perfect your sound with a three-band parametric equalizer and Loudness control for low level listening.

Input and Output
A pair of preamp outputs (rear or subwoofer) is provided for adding a little extra power to the KD-R300's onboard 50W x 4 amplifier.

A 3.5mm front panel auxiliary input is also included for use with iPods, MP3 players, or other external audio devices.

Bluetooth Ready
Bluetooth Wireless Technology is available with an optional adapter. A maximum of five compatible mobile phones can be registered for hands-free calling. With voice-recognition mobile phones, you can dial by just saying the name in your phone book. The wireless functions work even if your mobile phone is tucked away in your bag or pocket. You can also stream music from a compatible digital audio player, for listening on your car stereo.

Ready for iPod
You can listen to iPod music with an optional KS-PD100 adapter. The iPod can be controlled from the head unit, and song information is displayed with the same categories and layers as an iPod.

This stereo is perfect. I loved the price and the product. The display is easy to see and the color change is great. Works great with my ipod and is very easy to set up. No complaints.
Very good system

Bought this for my 03 tacoma and works beautifully! Sounds is great and very well built, but the menus are hard to get around, after messing with it long enough you'll remember the short cuts and keys to configure and set up the system.

Definitely an excellent buy, specially for the price.
Good but its missing the 30,000 colors it advertises!!!

Well I got this product for my girlfriend as a Christmas gift since I saw it in a store I liked it and I gave it to her as gift because of the illumination and features plus it was compatible with her Jeep Liberty of 2004. The only think I missing and one of the reason I would give it a 4 stars and not 5 is that instead of having the 30,000 colors that the company advertises in the box I noticed since I got it that it only turns in perhaps 15 different colors and then it keeps repeating the same colors over and over again, I do not see where are the 30,000 colors that it suppose to have? I have check the manual but it doesn't say nothing about the illumination and how to actually see the 30,000 colors in it and I also went to the web site and neither there has anything information about the 30,000 colors.

So I am guessing it is just a trick or something to sell the product when the product actually changes around 15 colors and then keeps repeating the same colors again. So basically in that aspect I am disappointed in the other features like the ipod, the satellite I have only tried the ipod connector I haven't yet mess with the satellite yet, but the ipod connector and sound it is actually great with no interference at all like a radio transmitter, but the radio stations seem to have some interference at times making the sound quality a little annoying and blurry.
Love it!!

Reviewer: Kiet C. Luu,
Great price for the sound quality, but changing radio stations and programing your preferences is kind of a nightmare. This radio is really set-up time heavy and I wouldn't recommend it for someone looking for an easy "install and enjoy" head unit.
