Review on πŸ”Š Kenwood 1177524 Compact Automotive/Marine Amplifier Class D Kac-M1824BT: Powerful 180W RMS, 4 Channel Performance! by Ronald Orear

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Simple and VERY effective

I used this up until I installed it on my restored old truck. I wanted state of the art Bluetooth audio without having to install a bulky, ugly car stereo. Also, my truck is topless, so I didn't want to worry about theft. This is the best solution I've found and I have several. Sounds great and the controls are easy. Turn on the truck, it connects to my iPhone's Spotify list (any service will do). Without touching the phone, I can grab the remote control and control playback. I don't mind that there is no screen to see the album art or artist name. If I'm really interested, I can check on my phone. The sound is powerful and clear. The instructions were clear. My setup was stand alone with no main unit present - very simple. My only concern is that I contacted Kenwood with a question and no one replied, but Google saved the day. Thanks Google! ;)

Pros
  • Good for many
Cons
  • Good but not great
