About it

8″ Digital Multimedia Receiver with Wireless CarPlay & Android Auto

Upgrade your vehicle with the Kenwood DAX8000S, a premium 8-inch digital multimedia receiver engineered to deliver modern connectivity, powerful audio performance, and a clean OEM-style appearance. Designed as a direct-replacement solution for select vehicles, the DAX8000S transforms outdated factory systems into a high-resolution, feature-rich infotainment experience.

Immersive HD Display

The large 8-inch capacitive touchscreen features a crisp 1280 × 720 HD resolution, delivering sharp visuals and smooth response. Its flush-mount design integrates seamlessly into the dashboard for a factory-installed look.

Wireless Smartphone Integration

Stay connected without the clutter of cables. The DAX8000S supports wireless and wired Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, giving you instant access to navigation, music, calls, messages, and compatible apps. Split-screen functionality allows you to view multiple sources at once for added convenience.

Premium Audio Performance

Built for sound quality, the DAX8000S supports High-Resolution Audio playback and includes an advanced digital signal processor. Fine-tune your system with a 13-band graphic equalizer, time alignment, and sound staging controls. 4-volt front, rear, and subwoofer preouts make it ideal for aftermarket amplifiers and upgraded speaker systems.

Advanced Camera & Safety Support

With support for up to four camera inputs, the DAX8000S enhances visibility and safety. Add rear, front, or side cameras with adjustable parking guidelines, and enjoy compatibility with HD cameras for clear, detailed video.

Seamless Vehicle Integration

When paired with compatible iDatalink Maestro RR or RR2 modules (sold separately), the DAX8000S retains factory features such as steering wheel controls and displays advanced vehicle information directly on screen.

Installation-Friendly Design

A modular chassis allows flexible mounting behind the dash, making installation easier in a wide range of vehicles. Designed for direct-replacement applications, the DAX8000S delivers a clean, professional finish.

    Questions and answers

    Does it work with both iPhone and Android?
    Yes. It supports wired and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so most modern phones connect either way. Waze is listed among supported apps.
    What is in the box?
    Kenwood lists a GPS antenna, a video/camera harness, a preout/aux harness and a remote control. A vehicle-specific direct plug-in wiring harness and dash kit are not included and usually must be bought separately.
    Will it fit my car?
    It is a 1-DIN separate-chassis design with a flush-mount screen, so the dash needs room for both the screen and the hideaway chassis. Check your vehicle's dash kit and wiring adapter before buying.
    Can I add a backup camera and satellite radio?
    Yes. It has a dedicated rear camera input and a video output, and it is SiriusXM-ready with a separate tuner and subscription. HD Radio is built in.
    Can I use it on a boat?
    No. Kenwood lists it as not suitable for boats; it is designed for car and truck dash installations.
    Is the DAX8000S worth the investment?
    You are paying for wireless CarPlay, Android Auto and built-in GPS on an 8-inch HD screen. If you do not need wireless or navigation, a cheaper wired unit does the same core job.
