Replace your bland factory stereo with this double-sized Kenwood DPX503 CD receiver, and enjoy the performance and versatility that go along with its stylish looks. The sleek DPX503 puts all the information you want front and center on its large multi-line display, and you can even choose from ten illumination colors to match your dash lighting.

Versatile entertainment center
Connect your satellite radio, flash drive, or MP3 player to the conveniently located front-panel USB and auxiliary inputs. Or play your iPod® by connecting it to the receiver's USB input. If you prefer your music on shiny discs, the DPX503 will play MP3, WMA, and AAC files on disc, as well as your store-bought CDs. Add-on options include Kenwood's HD Radio® tuner and Bluetooth® adapter.

Fine tune your audio
Contour the clean sound of the powerful onboard amplifier with seven preset tone curves for quick adjustments, plus bass, treble, and midrange controls for hands-on customization. Special controls let you tailor the sound to match your car's cabin, speaker setup, and your favorite listening position. Dual-zone capability allows the kids to listen to a CD over the rear speakers, while you listen to your iPod or other source up front.
