JVC KW-AVX830


$650.00 Released March, 2010

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Screen will black itself out when music is being played, and a motion sensor turns it back on when hand gets near. Touch screen accuracy and menu layout work together to accommodate large hands and bumpy roads. Face is removable for security, an uncommon feature for touch screens.

The Cons:Takes some effort and lots of referring to the manual to learn to use. Switching audio sources is tucked under a menu, rather than being selectable on the main screen. Has no built-in extras beyond Bluetooth - GPS, HD radio, Sirius, all cost extra.

The KW-AVX830 is a high-end car A/V receiver from JVC. The double-DIN head unit features a 7" touchscreen and plays CDs and DVDs. Equipped with a USB port and Bluetooth technology, it can also play content from iPods, iPhones, Bluetooth-enabled smartphones, and other portable media devices.

Bluetooth can also link the unit to a mobile phone, enabling hands-free calling, phone book transfer, and other features. The receiver supports a total power output of up to 200 W, or 50 W per channel, excluding a subwoofer. The KW-AVX830 also supports HD satellite radio. With the mostly identical KW-AVX720, Bluetooth requires the purchase of an additional accessory.
