Detachable Faceplate
Deter theft with the detachable faceplate, which features a 14 segment FL display and lets you turn Scrolling on or off. The rotary encoder provides easy, intuitive operation and the red key illumination with dimmer function looks great in any vehicle.

Includes IR remote.

Front USB and AUX connectors for quick and easy access.

CD and WMA/MP3 Playback
Enjoy your favorite CDs and CD-Rs, or burn a disc of WMA or MP3 files and enjoy hours of music on a single disc, along with ID-3 tag display for artist and title info.

FM/AM Tuner
When you feel like letting someone else control the programming, switch to the radio. Features 18 FM and six AM presets for your convenience.

Front Auxiliary Input
Listen to external audio devices like MP3 players using the front auxiliary input, which is illuminated so it's easy to find in the dark.

Room to Grow
The KDC-MP142 features one 2V pre-amp output for system expansion. It includes a rear/subwoofer switch with a subwoofer level and adjustable low pass filter, so you can send just what you need for your system.

Remote Control
Let your passengers control the music from the back seat with the included remote.

Supreme
When a music file is compressed, some frequencies signals are lost, particularly if it is encoded using a low bit rate. The Supreme technology is a Kenwood-original audio compensation technology that compensates for this loss and reproduces music in a more natural form, thereby making it possible to play music recorded using low bit rates (64k to 96k) in an audio-quality equivalent to music recorded using a higher bit rate (equivalent to 128k). Enjoy a natural, rich sound, even with lower compression ratios.

What's in the Box
Kenwood KDC-MP142, wireless remote (batteries included), sleeve, trim ring, wiring harness, installation tools, installation manual, operation manual, warranty card.

I used the Kenwood to update the old radio/cassette desk in my aging Subaru. I didn't really expect any increase in performance, I just needed to be able to play CD's instead of the now-obsolete cassettes.
What a pleasant surprise! Even through the stock speakers, the sound quality and power output put my OEM unit to shame. I'm going to upgrade to sturdier speakers to absorb the extra wattage.
One caveat: You'll probably need to order the appropriate wiring harness to make this work in your particular car.
Given the sub-$100 price, this is one of the best values I've ever seen (or heard).
Highly recommended.
Great product from a great seller!

I bought this CD receiver for my husbands 1996 Toyota Camry to replace the bulky Disc Changer that came with the car. We tried to hook it up ourselves but were unable to. We took it to a professional and they hooked it up. Even with the additional cost of the installation this was a great deal. It sounds wonderful, with a full bodied sound. I also like the inputs for the mp3 as I produce my husbands music, he can review a song on his way to work save me from having to burn a disc. It does everything I expect in a car CD player and more. I am very pleased.
Good buy!
