Cheharovskyy Valentyn it’s almost impossible to give you that answer without seeing what you have going on.. check all your connections .. mainly power connections / ground .. if it cutting off only at high volume , may be a speaker issue/short somewhere
check to make sure there is both 12volts on the yellow constant power wire, and the red accessory power wire. this can be done with a meter. if you don't have a meter, check your fuses. Finally, I've seen a simple reset fix the problem as well simply by unplugging radio for a few minutes, then plugging it back in.
Usually don’t right from settings on phone .. if radio isn’t visible when searching .. might have all Bluetooth spots filled and you will need to go theough settings of radio and clear out some of devices paired to it
I added this same deck to my 2015 Kia Sportage. heres my thoughts 1. get the steering wheel interface wiring deck, its a bitch switching songs clicking screen 2. i hate the startup warning i cant seem to turn off. 3. there is certain features in the deck that are not allowing me to use. 4. EQ is not good when it comes to tuning a amp for subs. 5. when playing a USB you cant select video or mp3 separately just jumbles it together, not the best when you have a brake bypass running. beyond that i do like the deck good output strength and sound quality
Just bought the dmx 7705s. I have the Metra installation kit model 95-8240B for my 2008 prius. I still need to get a harness before Best Buy installs it. I'm looking to find a model that is reasonably priced, I don't care about keeping the steering wheel button functionality (would go for it if the harness was around $50). The Best Buy suggested model was $150. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
Nice video, My question is... Is it worth the upgrade from the 7704s? I currently have it in my vehicle but I just want to know the differences between the two head units, in your opinion..
Jake, Thanks for posting the video. Very helpful. I also purchased this radio and coincidentally had it installed in a 15 Wrangler. I could have sworn that I got the maestro harness, but my vehicle info and gauges are gray'd out. Can you post the model number for the harness to make this work? Thanks in advance.
you need the maestro rr harness with the Chrysler /jeep/ dodge vehicle harness.. anyone retailer can give you the model on the harness, but if I recall its a ch1 harness I think.. I may be wrong im sorry
Jake Bradford it was the CH 1 harness. The previous installer used a non-idatalink maestro harness so I couldn’t use the extra features. I replaced with maestro rr and ch1 harness and works great!
@@shark_plisskenyeah but not to bad. once plugged in, depending on your phone, uses your phone navigation, or wave or whatever. not to bad really. this allows phone to stay charged. but at least you can then use the radio to control things.
Good vid. I just bought the DMX7706s for my 13 Titan. Haven’t installed yet. Do you know if the maestro RR will work with my truck? I would love to have the vehicle Info available on the screen. Thanks.
haven't tried it personally.. but rumor has it that the gps antenna will tell the unit that the vehicle is moving and lock out video for youtube... like I said.. haven't tried it personally yet to see if its true
Noticed in video you stated you have the on usb for Android and one for iPhone? Are the USB ports both either or? Or will they only work like you said? So the one in front that you stated was for Android, if a iPhone was plugged in would it not work then. Bose versa with the iPhone one?
I believe so yes.. but you might not get certain features such as heat/ac control/ display, tire pressure and stuff like that. It all depends on vehicle and what information is present on the databus network
Jake I have the DMX7704S in one of my vehicles that I installed. Love the radio. Was thinking of picking up another but see it has been discontinued although many new units seem to be still available. I see this DMX7705S replaces the 7704S. I can't see any difference by looking at them online other then the fact the 7705S doesn't have HD Radio like the 7704S. Have you compared the sound of the HD Radio in the 7704S to what comes in the 7705S? Just curious of any difference's before I make another purchase. Thanks for any imput you can give me. Great video by the way. Well done.
honestly hd radio isn't anything special to me.. its comparable to CD quality sound but it likes to go in and out in certain areas and you can here it come in and go out and it can be annoying. Plus I don't listen to the radio all that much anymore honestly. hope this helps !
Jake While waiting to hear back from you I did go out and purchase a new 7705S for another vehicle and just received it yesterday afternoon. The strange thing I noticed right away is that the 7705S didn’t come with a GPS Antenna and mounting plate. The 7704S did so I did install it in the car where the 7704S when into. I could never really get a straight answer from anyone why the 7704S came with it being the Radio is not equipped with GPS. Someone told me I needed it for Apple and Google Maps. Now that I also own a 7705S and it shows in the manual that a GPS Antenna doesn’t come with it I am wondering if it is really needed to view Apple maps through my iPhone. What is your thought on the subject? You did mention that you own a 7704S that you have installed in your truck.
What dash kit did you use? yours doesnt look cheap like a lot them do? also did this vehicle have a factory back up camera? looking the adpater i would need for my 13 JGC with factory back up camera
If I remember correctly.. I always get the 95-6511-17 kit from metra and slightly modify it to sit flush with radio. vehicle did not have factory camera, I added the camera to the spare tire area.
Good video. Question if i have my phone connected is there anyway to take the text message off of it. Is that an option and am i able to just play spotify through my bluetooth
you can't remove text message unfortunately but you can turn off notifications through your phone... text message portion is only shown when connected through usb and using CarPlay... any of your music apps can work through bluetooth including Spotify
Hey Jake thanks for the video. Do you know if this unit supports USB playback of mp4 videos? If so do you know the Max size it will take. I'm looking for a unit that doesn't have a DVD player but I can plug my hard drive into. Thanks
I unfortunately do not know the answer to this.. its a question I would probably call Kenwood about . sorry. definitely let me know if you find this answer out tho !
Thanks for this video! I'm shopping for a unit right now, this my help me make a decision.....but 1 question about the flush mounted usb. My Jetta currently has a usb but that usb doesn't connect to the current stock head unit. Would I need to purchase another one, or would that one connect to the unit?
depending on the year of the Jetta, the factory radio doesn't support usb inputs.. much have to purchase a universal bluetooth or aux input piece to get music.. or go with an aftermarket radio:)
I usually get those cleaning kits that are used to clean tv screens...they usually come with a spray and like a little micro fiber type cleaning rag.. Best Buy definitely has these kits
Some advice dude stop moving the camera so much just hold it in one spot in line to pick up everything you’re doing Scott a great lens and can pick it all up you got it inches away from the radio and it’s making everybody’s nauseous watching it
hello jackie! yes, you can use Waze.. download the weblink app for kenwood, and download the Waze app as well and you should have no problem using Waze on this radio.. Thanks for subscribing!
I just got this front end unit in my 05 Acura TL. I don't like where it's at though. Was hoping to get my OLD nav unit removed and new system in that spot. U know of any harness that allows for that?
Doesn't work with the Kenwood DRV-N520 camera. The connection isn't there. Just fyi. I bought the radio after watching your video. I use mine with an iPhone.Thanks for posting it.
you are correct, my apologies.. dmx-7704 does accept the dash camera, the dmx-7705 does not.. surprised they did away with that.. sorry for the confusion , good call! thanks for watching!
Not apology necessary at all. It is a cool radio that I wouldn't have considered until watching the video. I was just chiming in to what I found out by buying the camera. Thank you for the review. I didn't see many other video reviews and yours was very professional. Crutchfield didn't even know that it didn't work at time of purchase. Thanks for posting it.
ecobill8222 in all honesty I didn’t actually try to watch it while driving .. I was at a vendor show like a day before the video was made and the rep for kenwood is the one who told me that it wouldn’t work.. I never put it to the test .. but if it does work that’s awesome !
Hey, Jake! Does the screen tilt a little? Angle viewing seems to be the problem that I am having with my car OEM radio unit, and I am looking to replace it with this one.
this radio does not have a motorized screen therefore it will not tilt. check out some on the pioneer units with a motorized screen.. These are usually the in dash units with a 7 in screen. If it has the 7 in motorized screen it will have the ability to tilt. Hope this helps!
Do you have to connect your phone via USB in order to use Apply Car Play and Spotify? I am looking at upgrading my stock media system for my 2014 Nissan Rouge but don't want to buy this radio if I still have to connect my phone via USB. I saw that in the video you had to connect using USB and wasn't sure if that was just because it wasn't your car. I'm kind of confused...
What is the thing that replaced the original car outlet. I have an iPhone so I would imagine it would still work if I put the iPhone usb instead of the Android one
Hey I just got this radio today ! Having issues connection andriod .. when connecting the blue tooth the media audio shuts off and switches to calls only .. the media tab switches off soon as you select it to turn it on Also shows an error message on the scree. " unsupported device " I am using a galaxy s8 , we tried an s7 and s9 with all similar results Any help would be amazing !
hmm.. I've seen this before.. but can't remember exactly what the solution was.. well start here..what type of vehicle is it going into or installed in already?
Jake Bradford I cleared the cache of bluetooth and reconnected .. so now apon playing with some settings and blah blah .. I cant use pandora .. I switched to spotify and it's been working great .. but on the other hand everytime I plug my phone in to use waze or weblink it shows " USB error " or device no supported "
I need to connect my phone to be able to use CarPlay.. the radio doesn't exactly connect to internet per say, it is using your data for any music you are streaming or gps.. Thanks for watching!
Jake Bradford Thanks for the reply. I actually seen you answer the same question that another person asked. I ordered it from Amazon. Thanks for the help. ✌
hey thanks for watching.. the start up time isn't bad at all.. its comparable to all the other units on the market right now... I didn't time it so don't hold me to it, but its close to the 10 sec mark I would imagine. I think in one of my other videos I show the unit powering on to get an idea of start up time, but 7-10 secs is what I would say
@@jakebradforddesigns I have a Samsung Note 4 with current Android version and used several cords and Android Auto will not work. Bluetooth disconnects off and on, random only plays current folder, Weblink works when it wants to. Maybe an issue with my phone, but I'm going back to Pioneer. Kenwood never again!
this information is gathered by the obd2 connections to the car. If the information is present on the data bus network, the maestro harness reads it and allows for a maestro compatible radio to display it:)
Good video man, thanks for creating it. Are you able to listen to the radio or stream pandora while using Waze? I really like the unit but am holding off due to this uncertainty.
hey buddy thanks for watching!! every navigation app I've ever used on a radio whether its google maps, iPhones navigation, kenwoods Garmin navigation all allow you to keep listening to music.. Waze shouldn't be any different. it will only mute the music to let you know of alerts like if your turn is coming up or stuff like that.. love to have ya as a subscriber, I'm going to keep doing as many reviews as I can. I'm just starting to really get into this youtube stuff lol
Awesome, thanks for the response! Keep up the good work, the video really helped me get a feel for the interface and functionality. I'm going to give the unit a shot.
I just returned the Alpine ilx207WRA restyle kit cause it's horrible for the price. What dash kit did you use to mount the DMX so it looks flush and OEM. Thanks. The installer at Best Buy said the DMX is way better than the ilx207WRA
I'm using the dash kit from metra electronics... I believe it was the 95-6511-17 . depending on the radio, I modify the brackets a little to sit more flush...im a big fan of kenwoods in dash receivers.. alpine units just don't do it for me personally:) Thanks for watching!
unfortunately Im not a pro at making videos, I just try to make quick videos with either a phone or a go pro.. if I decide to take it to another level ill invest in better video equipment but at the moment just making quick videos hitting on some basics.. thanks for input tho!
"Dude...... "I don't make videos for a living and its not rehearsed and its not like I have something to read off of. But sooo glad you had time to give me some of your input.. don't know what I would do without it.. THANKS
I wanted this unit but they discontinued it. 😕
Audio and the camera suck, but you did mention it in the beginning and you covered everything I wanted to know so 👍🏽
The unit keeps shutting off completely, how could I fix that?
Cheharovskyy Valentyn it’s almost impossible to give you that answer without seeing what you have going on.. check all your connections .. mainly power connections / ground .. if it cutting off only at high volume , may be a speaker issue/short somewhere
Nice review, thanks for posting. I just purchased one, and your video was great with the feature run down.
Hey what’s up my radio does not turning on. I have this exact radio. Any tips?
check to make sure there is both 12volts on the yellow constant power wire, and the red accessory power wire. this can be done with a meter. if you don't have a meter, check your fuses. Finally, I've seen a simple reset fix the problem as well simply by unplugging radio for a few minutes, then plugging it back in.
Maybe turn off location on the phone?
Can you mirror from phone
I cant figure out how to connect my phone so i can bluetooth music.
Usually don’t right from settings on phone .. if radio isn’t visible when searching .. might have all Bluetooth spots filled and you will need to go theough settings of radio and clear out some of devices paired to it
How you use UA-cam ?
Why does this head unit have to use to different usb ports for Android and iPhones?
unfortunately this is how a few units still do it.. I don't have an exact answer why besides its because of the hardware used inside the unit itself.
I added this same deck to my 2015 Kia Sportage. heres my thoughts
1. get the steering wheel interface wiring deck, its a bitch switching songs clicking screen
2. i hate the startup warning i cant seem to turn off.
3. there is certain features in the deck that are not allowing me to use.
4. EQ is not good when it comes to tuning a amp for subs.
5. when playing a USB you cant select video or mp3 separately just jumbles it together, not the best when you have a brake bypass running.
beyond that i do like the deck good output strength and sound quality
Just got this installed and I click the UA-cam but it will not let me type anything for the search and the video is not on display just sound
engage your e-brake and see if it works at that point
same here i need help my eb doesn't work so idk
I’m so glad I bought this radio. Can’t wait to install it and use UA-cam when I’m chilling
Doll
I just. got the same unit 7705s, but does it have gauges ?
if used in conjunction with a maestro wire harness and a vehicle that is supported by maestro then yes you will have gauges.
Jake Bradford thanks for info, but how does one his vehicle supports maestro? I have 2010 f150
Is the microphone for talking on Bluetooth located in the unit or its separated from the unit with long cable?
Just bought the dmx 7705s. I have the Metra installation kit model 95-8240B for my 2008 prius. I still need to get a harness before Best Buy installs it.

im an ex best buy installer of 13 years.. the odds are that if the harness is that expensive, im assuming you have the jbl factory sound system?
that is correct.
I think I heard you can . But can you change the color of the buttons too orange
yes.. you can change the button color and orange is one of the options if I remember correctly
Can't even sit through this dumb intro
then don't..... ? lol

Do you have to plug your phone in to use navigation or can you connect through BT and use nav that way? I like the unit overall though.
That's my question. And I think u have to plug it in. So stupid. Smh
Have to plug in
@@dannamanna99 welp... that sucks
@@shark_plisskenyeah but not to bad. once plugged in, depending on your phone, uses your phone navigation, or wave or whatever. not to bad really. this allows phone to stay charged. but at least you can then use the radio to control things.
Mark G you can connect with Bluetooth also ,
Does Apple Car play only work while the phone is plugged in?
on this particular unit yes.. there are wireless units on the market now if you would rather go wireless
@@jakebradforddesigns Is that the same for Android as well?

Mario Alvarez no. There is some kind of bypass that cannot be bypassed.

it would see the other device.. charge it.. and play as a usb device.. but only one usb will do CarPlay and only one will do android auto
Can you use the maestro harness on older vehicles like 2005?
I believe so yes.. but you might not get certain features such as heat/ac control/ display, tire pressure and stuff like that. It all depends on vehicle and what information is present on the databus network
It has the spectrum display with any playing music?
Just tested with radio and yes so far.

It does use the GPS to set the time when you have the Sirius module installed (at least, mine does)
James he’s talking about time alignment of the speakers
@@jakebradforddesigns ah
Can you download the new youtube music app on the receiver
Thanks for the video. Does the warning screen that comes on when you start up the unit disappear automatically, or do you have to hit OK every time?
you can click the box for it to automatically disappear after 10 seconds
Can you add apps to kenwood weblink
I think Kenwood has a list somewhere of supported apps that can be downloaded on phone to be compatible
Is there a built in microphone or one in the box? Or do you have to buy one if your car doesn’t already have one?
comes with a external noise canceling microphone
Also wondering how you pull the deck out!! :) Can't seem to make use of the keys that come with.
to remove the factory deck on these vehicles, there are no keys to use for removal. you have to disassemble the dash to get to the screws of the radio
Jake just curious when you do a install what do you use afterwards to clean a dirty screen on a Kenwood or any other brand?
I usually get those cleaning kits that are used to clean tv screens...they usually come with a spray and like a little micro fiber type cleaning rag.. Best Buy definitely has these kits
Some advice dude stop moving the camera so much just hold it in one spot in line to pick up everything you’re doing Scott a great lens and can pick it all up you got it inches away from the radio and it’s making everybody’s nauseous watching it

Do you own a shop? I live in MD and am looking for a good shop for car stereo, tint, etc. Thanks
hey randy... just shoot me a message at 4437590515 and I can help you out for sure!
Hi man, how you set the gauges and tire pressure??
this information is gathered by the obd2 connections to the car. If the information is present on the data bus network, the maestro harness reads it and allows for a maestro compatible radio to display it:)
Good video man, thanks for creating it. Are you able to listen to the radio or stream pandora while using Waze? I really like the unit but am holding off due to this uncertainty.
hey buddy thanks for watching!! every navigation app I've ever used on a radio whether its google maps, iPhones navigation, kenwoods Garmin navigation all allow you to keep listening to music.. Waze shouldn't be any different. it will only mute the music to let you know of alerts like if your turn is coming up or stuff like that.. love to have ya as a subscriber, I'm going to keep doing as many reviews as I can. I'm just starting to really get into this youtube stuff lol
Awesome, thanks for the response! Keep up the good work, the video really helped me get a feel for the interface and functionality. I'm going to give the unit a shot.
you won't be disappointed , overall its an awesome unit
I just returned the Alpine ilx207WRA restyle kit cause it's horrible for the price. What dash kit did you use to mount the DMX so it looks flush and OEM. Thanks. The installer at Best Buy said the DMX is way better than the ilx207WRA
I'm using the dash kit from metra electronics... I believe it was the 95-6511-17 . depending on the radio, I modify the brackets a little to sit more flush...im a big fan of kenwoods in dash receivers.. alpine units just don't do it for me personally:) Thanks for watching!
UA-cam dont work?🤯🤯🤯
yeah it doesn't work on mine either. the sound plays but you can't see this video
Same here
Is probably bc is not legal to play videos on dashboard do to distraction,
Ok dumb guy here, the head unit uses the internet through your phone...right? If so a person would need an unlimited data plan........thanks
yes.. it does use data from your phone
Jake Bradford thx
why youtube videos are so choppy ?
unfortunately Im not a pro at making videos, I just try to make quick videos with either a phone or a go pro.. if I decide to take it to another level ill invest in better video equipment but at the moment just making quick videos hitting on some basics.. thanks for input tho!

"Dude...... "I don't make videos for a living and its not rehearsed and its not like I have something to read off of. But sooo glad you had time to give me some of your input.. don't know what I would do without it.. THANKS
