A good unit for the money, but requires many improvements in overall usability. Wait for updated software before buying. Audio quality is fantastic, and the built-in amplifier strong enough for most stock vehicle speakers. The radio itself also looks nice physically. It's well constructed, and quite hefty in weight. Be careful though, the acrylic screen surface is very prone to scratching and finger prints.

Its 1-DIN form factor makes it suitable for any dash, and the embedded 3.5 inch screen keeps the streamlined look of your car’s interior. KD-NX5000 is ready for a bluetooth adapter (pictured to the right), comes with built-in RDS/TMC tuner, and is also satellite radio ready.
