Our take on the Kenwood DMX40S 6.8 Inch 2-Din Multimedia Receiver

The Kenwood DMX40S is a 6.8-inch double-DIN multimedia receiver with wired Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth hands-free calling and a rear camera input. It plays MP3, WMA, AAC, WAV, FLAC and MKV files and has a 13-band equalizer for tuning sound to the cabin. It suits drivers who want smartphone mirroring and better audio control without navigation built in. Against rivals it lacks wireless CarPlay, built-in navigation and HD Radio, and its single USB port limits device options.

Questions and answers

Does the DMX40S support wireless CarPlay?
No. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto both need a USB cable. Bluetooth is for calls and audio streaming only.
Can I add a backup camera?
Yes. It has a dedicated rear camera input, and the screen switches to the camera view when you shift into reverse.
What file formats does it play?
MP3, WMA, AAC, WAV, FLAC and MKV from USB storage. FLAC and WAV play lossless.
Does it have built-in navigation?
No. Navigation comes from your phone through CarPlay or Android Auto.
Is it a good upgrade over a factory radio?
Yes for most older cars. You gain a touchscreen, smartphone mirroring and equalizer control, but you give up any factory-integrated features your car had.
What is in the box?
The receiver, wiring harness, trim ring, mounting hardware and microphone for hands-free calls. A dash kit and steering-wheel adapter may be needed for some cars.
Where is the Kenwood DMX40S 6.8 Inch 2-Din Multimedia Receiver cheapest?
