CD and MP3/WMA Playback
Enjoy your favorite CDs or burnt CD-R/RWs, or get more bang for your buck with MP3/WMA discs--burn hours of music to one disc and get ID3-TAG support for display of artist and song info.

iPod Control
Enjoy even more connections and full operation with the optional KS-PD100 adapter with all three units. The iPod can be controlled from the headunit, and song information is displayed with the same categories and layers as an iPod.

AM/FM Radio with HS-IV Tuner
The KW-XG500's AM/FM radio has standard features like automatic presetting of strongest signals.

The HS-IV tuner features higher sensitivity, thanks to three IF bandwidths (wide, middle and narrow). It also includes AM Noise Canceller plus upgraded IF filters that help avoid the distortion caused by interference from adjacent stations.

To get even more from the airwaves, add a JVC adapter for Sirius or XM SAT Radio reception.

Auxiliary Input
Use the front auxiliary input to connect external audio devices like MP3 players.

Two Preamp Outputs
With a 50W x 4 MOSFET amplifier, the KW-XG500 is ready to rock, but if you'd like to add onto the system, two preamp outputs are provided for setting up external amps.

Wireless Remote
A full-featured wireless remote is include for controlling receiver functions.

Customer Reviews For JVC KW-XG500 Double DIN In-Dash CD Receiver with Front AUX Input J-Bus Expandable (Black)

Replaced stock stereo in our 4runner
 
Review Date: January 12, 2010
Reviewer: J. Brininger, Santa Cruz, CA
This is a great stereo that replaced the stock 2din cassette/cd player in our 2002 4runner. It worked out great and I did the install myself with a little reading online. It was a snap. I bought the Metra toyota harness and just crimped it to the JVC harness that attaches to the radio.

The stereo itself has a great layout, with large buttons for radio presets as well as a big volume knob. I hate these new modern stereos with no buttons for radio presets, it makes it very dangerous for driving and changing stations. Also the faceplate has a lot of display flashing but I turned it off because it was distracting and it makes it seem much more professional. The radio also comes preset on the LOUD setting which is unnecessary unless you're listening at very low volumes. This will cause your speakers to distort if you chose to crank the volume up.

Also one note, the picture in the description of this stereo is incorrect, it does not have a cassette, the correct picture is at the top left when you first click on the item. Amazon needs to correct this because I believe you can clearly see it says XG400.

I will be instealling a sub and new speakers soon, so maybe I will update this review then but it sounds great and is a definite improvement over the stock radio, especially being able to use the iPod through the aux cable connector instead of the tape player.
NICE RADIO FOR THE PRICE
