Overview
With a 13 band equalizer and no CD drive, the Kenwood KMM-BT270U is a single DIN digital media receiver built around Bluetooth and USB playback, with a detachable face plate for theft deterrence.
A high contrast LCD keeps track and source information readable without the cost of a touchscreen, and the 13 band EQ gives more tone shaping range than the simpler bass and treble controls on entry-level decks. Like the Alpine and Boss units above, it has no disc drive, so every source runs through Bluetooth, USB, or the AM/FM tuner.
- Single DIN Bluetooth receiver
- 13 band EQ
- Detachable face plate
- High contrast LCD
Who it's for
Fits drivers who want finer EQ control than a basic Bluetooth deck offers, without paying for a touchscreen. Not for anyone who wants CD playback or a color display.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- 13 band EQ for detailed tone control
- Detachable face plate deters theft
- High contrast LCD readable in sunlight
- USB port for playback
- No CD drive
- No touchscreen display
Performance notes
The 13 band EQ allows more precise tone adjustment than a standard bass and treble control, useful for tuning sound to factory speakers that were not matched to the aftermarket deck. The detachable face plate removes the control panel for theft deterrence, and the high contrast LCD stays legible in direct sunlight without the glare a glossy touchscreen can show.
