Just bought the DMX Excelon 908S and love it!! I originally got the Excelon DDX396 but found the UI laggy, plus I didn’t care for the resistive touch screen and dimly lit screen in the daytime. Now granted the 396 was a $275 unit vs the 908S at $699. The 908S is a completely different animal. The capacitive touch screen is wonderful as well as being much bigger. Plus, u can actually swipe and drag and drop icons. With a HD tuner and all the other great features I’m very happy with it!! Originally had my heart set on a Pioneer head unit, but the reviews didn’t seem to great and just didn’t offer everything I wanted.

Glad you love it, the DMX908S is truly a great head unit! Buy one here: lockdownsecuritycanada.ca/products/kenwood-excelon-dmx908s

thanks for the great review, now I just gotta get the double din conversion for my vehicle, my last car had a kenwood unit and i really liked it so i've been looking around for info and it seems like the 9708s is the best choice for my plans :)

Great review!!

[@LockdownSecurity]

Thanks so much!

[@rccvs4355]

Great review thanks for showing. I'm looking at this model, also new for 2023 DMX8709S, I'm curious about your thought on it !!!

[@LockdownSecurity]

The Kenwood DMX8709S is a great receiver too, essentially identical to the Kenwood Excelon DMX809S, however the DMX8709S lacks HD Radio, and lacks 2 year warranty (Excelon comes with 2 year warranty). Honestly, I am personally not a huge fane of their new 6.8" screen design on either of these receivers (DMX8709S and DMX809S), I like the larger 7" screen designs with the lower portion hard buttons.

[@rccvs4355]

@Lockdown Security Ok great thank you for the input !!

[@drewe9388]

Can this unit display a front or rear camera while driving for example as a widget?

[@LockdownSecurity]

Display either camera while driving, YES, as a widget, no. Widgets are only available on the large screen receivers such as DMX1037S, DMX1057XR, DNR1007XR or the newest DNR1008RVS

[@VerdantStone2]

I cant decide between this and the jvc kw-m875bw

[@marcelle215]

If my car already has turn signal camera will i be able to KEEP that capability?

[@LockdownSecurity]

Possibly through use of an interface module.

[@marcelle215]

@LockdownSecurity I just got it installed and I still have the right signal camera!

[@JaredWallin]

Can this Kenwood model ground the parking brake connection to a screw on the back of the unit like other Kenwood models? Does the home screen allow to set your own picture backgrounds? I'm debating between this and a Alpine ILX-507, which I currently have installed but it's having issues with steering wheel controls and the need to double-engage the parking brake just to get into the settings menu is very annoying.

[@LockdownSecurity]

Yes this model can have the ebrake input simply grounded, and yes the home screen image can be customized with any image of your choice,

[@JaredWallin]

@@LockdownSecurity Thank you for the reply! I'm having the head units swapped today actually so that's good reassurance. 😅

I need some input as well
Just installed this unit today with the hdmi option .
I ran a toggle from parking wire to the ground . I called Kenwood support they couldn’t seem to tell me if just ground it and forget it or if you have to toggle it on

[@Chevro91]

@@LockdownSecurity
I can’t get the hdmi to play with my new fire stick it says “ No signal “ on the front and I have the park Wire grounded to a toggle and switched on and I tested ground
I bought a “Best buy” insignia brand mini HDMI type “D” to type “A” and I still get no signal screen ?
Do I absolutely need kenwoods particular hdmi cable for the dmx9708s ?

[@LockdownSecurity]

The only cable guaranteed to work is Kenwood's cable.

[@vanilla-vice]

Jeff, anybody ever tell you that you sound like Justin Long?

[@LockdownSecurity]

Lol no they haven't, but in this video I was battling a bit of a cold, maybe that's why?

[@scottcardinal6147]

No hd radio lolol for 750? Who dropped that ball?

[@jeffbates7199]

You have to go with the kenwood Excelon version, the DMX908S if you want HD Radio.

[@colinpeddle]

Bro how big are your hands. Sheeeesh!

[@LockdownSecurity]

Well you know what they say, big hands...
