Does anyone have any experience with the Kenwood KDC-X994 car stereo? I'm thinking of getting it to put in my 2004 XS. It looks like it just came out recently and I haven't seen any reviews yet.
I've only saw 1 review on it so far and it was a good one. I ordered mine last night from Crutchfield, should be here tomorrow. But if you order it from Crutchfield, use the promo code: 3a825 It will give you $20 off $100 purchase. I installed the last model for my fiance last week and the ipod controls and bluetooth works awesome. I'll try to remember to check back and give a review after I get it installed.Does anyone have any experience with the Kenwood KDC-X994 car stereo? I'm thinking of getting it to put in my 2004 XS.

I can confirm that the GPS instructions are played over the stereo system. I can also also confirm that the GPS will play over whatever music program you're listening to. I'm pretty sure that the stereo will play whatever audio is coming from the phone, so if the phone is playing any audio (GPS, music, Pandora, etc.) it will play over the stereo.One thing I thought of later was using the phone's GPS system (powered by Google Maps) to see if the voice instructions would be picked up by the HU. I'm thinking this should work if the HU is in Bluetooth audio mode. I'm wondering if you can play internet radio while using the GPS at the same time and if the GPS instructions will over ride the music. But I guess that would be more of a function of the phone.
