JVC KW-AVX820 Double-DIN DVD/CD Multimedia Receiver Review
November 10th, 2009
JVC KW-AVX820 Double-DIN DVD/CD Multimedia Receiver Review from Rellog. Decent unit overall, but a weak radio receiver, I recent bought and installed this unit as a replacement for my older JVC KD-DV4200 that began cutting off at 30 second intervals. First, the screen on this unit looks great. Also, the options available are outstanding. There are some complaints however, mainly the weak radio receiver. The JVC KD-DV4200 replaced a Pioneer unit that had been stolen. I thought it lacked the strength of that unit, but this newer JVC is even weaker still. Stations that should and did come in perfectly, are now weak and filled with static. Another beef is with the wallpaper. There are 5 options, none of which are anything to write home about.
As for other features, the bluetooth is nice, but doesn’t have great outgoing sound when the car is in motion. The USB port works better than I expected, and is a nice feature, but the unit doesn’t do album art (come on JVC… really???? no art??? that’s just weak!) Album art makes finding music I want to listen to easier IMO, and that feature’s absence is very noticeable.
There’s a lot to like about this stereo, however, if there were other removable faceplate options out there, I’d have to say check them first…
Update- After a couple of months, the faceplate seems to be having issues. The stero will shut itself off. If you push on the faceplate, it usually comes back on, but there is something going on with the radio either not sitting properly, or a short developing between the connections. I’m wondering of others have been seeing this same issue.
