Reviews of the Kenwood DPX302
-
CNET Review
The Good: The Kenwood DPX302 plays a range of compressed digital audio formats, has a handy auxiliary input jack, and features some advanced audio-tweaking controls.
The Bad: The system's poor faceplate design, threadbare display, and tacky controls make it difficult to navigate and select music files.
The Bottom Line: The Kenwood DPX302 has basic digital audio support and some advanced audio-customization features, but its user interface is less than adequate, even for an entry-level car stereo.
