A helpful review, thank you! I took a look at one of these in Halfords earlier and after watching your review, have just ordered one to replace my Pioneer SPH-DA160DAB which has suffered the dreaded White Screen of Doom, after two years of cracking service.
Great video. I ended up with the Kenwood dmx7722dabs in the end. Ive had it about a week and i love it! I also have a CMOS 320 camera coming in soon. :)
Are you able to let me know which remote steering setup I need for this, please? I have the Connects2 CTSAD00C.2 but I am having no success using the 3.5mm jack with this.
I went with the 7722 about a week ago. Reason being, I had a very poor previous experience with a JVC headunit, swapped twice and it was still buggy and would freeze up at random, with the only way to unfreeze it was the pull over and turn the car off. I'm sure things have improved since then (it was a model from 2019, last updated in 2021). But that put me off JVC. Also, I prefer the home screen look on the Kenwood. Finally, I've heard that Kenwoods are supposedly better built and sound better. How true this is, I don't know. Really happy with my choice though. What did you get in the end?
@@RikAindowUh, uh, it was a terrible experience... So it seems that the quality level of JVC is not good. Some netizens say that k2 audio technology is very good. I'm not sure what the difference is between this and kenwood's supreme technology (maybe for SBC and AAC). Unfortunately, in 2023 JVC is still using capacitor screen technology, so I also gave up JVC m960.
The GPS antenna is needed for Apple Car Play to work. I think Android Auto works without it, but won't be as accurate. Also, the GPS antenna is meant to help you save battery as it means your phone doesn't have to use its GPS.

I also bought Kenwood CMOS 320 from eBay Japan it's very nice.
does spotify work with Airplay wireless or just with USb?
Great informative video Blade. I might get one of these 👍🏻
Thanks 👍
Good job and information! Your video made this unit understandable. Thank you sir
Is this JVC stereo compatible with a Vauxhall Corsa D 2014
JVC!!

Between this and the Kenwood 7722, which one is better on screen and overall performance, as I see many similarities? Thanks

Is the handfree good ? my old head unit has alot of noise and it's better to use the phone speaker over 80kmh
I thought the preamp outputs were 4 volts?
Am I missing something?
Think he misspoke, just bought this unit and my understanding is the preouts are indeed 4 volt
Does it have screen miroring
What if your car has a mic already? Do you need the gps antenna?
The GPS antenna is needed for Apple Car Play to work. I think Android Auto works without it, but won't be as accurate. Also, the GPS antenna is meant to help you save battery as it means your phone doesn't have to use its GPS.
I have the JVC KW-M785BW 6.8 this one is it almost same or much different unit.
Pretty much the same thing except this one has DAB+ a type of digital radio. JVC headunits with DAB+ have a D in their model numbers. :)
@@RikAindow Thank's for explaining.
Can you change out the Apple Airplay button, or is it a permanent link? If so, that is a seriously stupid waste of screen real estate
You can customise all 4 buttons.
does it have GPS?
or you can use navigation using a smartphone only?
The GPS is there for use with Android Auto or Car Play. The unit itself doesn't have standalone navigation.
@@RikAindowok, thanks
