JVC KD-X260BT Digital Media Receiver Featuring Bluetooth/USB / 13-Band EQ, (2018 Model - Discontinued by Manufactuer)

A good stereo for what it is. Sound is good, the fact that the sound options allow you to optimize based on the vehicle is nice. I have a minivan, and it allows you to customize the sound for that vehicle. If you’re expecting a high end sound, this isn’t a Cadillac. You’re not buying a Bose sound system. But for the money it’s not bad. This is my 3rd JVC unit and this didn’t disappoint. Great unit. Keep in mind: NO CD player. But when all my music is digitized either on an iPod or my iPhone, what is the need? I do have an iPhone 11, and it paired no problem! My old unit was free m 2013 and it was not staying connected so I was prompted to upgrade. Controls are simple, easy to read. Want a budget minded system from a time tested and respected brand? Look no further! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Update: keep in mind 50 watts x4 peak power. And 22x4 normal conditions. Sorry but with 6 speakers in my minivan…. It’s not all that loud. There are times I’d really appreciate more sound amplification. At $120 for this, I’d expect better. The one I bought 10 years ago, another JVC unit, I paid the same and got way more power. Hey, this is still a great stereo for a budget. Even better if you’ve an amp to bump sound up a few notches. But overall had I known this, I’d have looked elsewhere. JVC you actually managed to disappoint me here. SELLER: if you’re reading this, make more clear it’s actual output please. ;)

I was in the market for an inexpensive bluetooth radio for a little project I did, works well and sounds great. Plenty of EQ settings! Only issue would be bluetooth connectivity. It connects quick and the spotify source works really well but the reception / distance is very weak / low. Sound will cut out a bit when I move the phone. Works best when up close and staying still. Could just be a defective unit but it works for the project I used it for. Cant complain for the price

I took some time to actually experience the radio before leaving my review. Let me start by saying that the sound quality is nice, very easy to understand the lyrics. I absolutely love the red color as we put it in an old Ford truck that has red interior. The face is nice and the display is clear both in day light and when its dark. This does have a USB slot, an AUX port, and a CD player, so you definitely have many options of what to listen to. I have been able to play Pandora and YouTube using the AUX cord, so that's always a huge plus. The buttons are easy to use, and have a nice space between them so bigger fingers can actually use it to. CD player plays smooth and I haven't had any issues with it skipping, even when we go muddin.The only thing I can say I have seen is that it does freeze sometimes. Like if I am changing the station a lot or something like that, I have noticed it freezing or lagging. Which can be annoying, but it usually only does it for a few seconds then it goes back to running the way it should be.

I was looking for a new radio for my truck. I run factory speakers with a 10" sub in the back, and this radio sounds amazing! I would give it 5 stars, my only cons about the unit is the display is somewhat lackluster, layout wise, and the manual really doesnt come with any kind of in depth information about the settings and all in the radio, which was relatively easily overcome by some google searches and a minimal amount of research. If you're looking for a great radio for an affordable price, this is definitely a great unit.

I shopped around for a month before I finally settled on this head unit. I’ll admit I was apprehensive due to the jvc in my wife’s car constantly glitching and the buttons failing but I gave it a shot. Have to say I’m impressed sound quality in my Jeep is 100% better, allows for pro equalization setup, also can control my subs from the head unit which is a huge plus. Installation was a breeze and it came with a mic for hands free calling, only used it a few times but call quality seemed good and no one complained about not being able to hear me talk like in my previous.

Increased sound quality and volume by a lot but the menus are a little hard to work through, the screen doesnt get bright enough to see during the day even with 20% tint all the way around and it just feels super cheap. But if all you want is functionality this will be perfect for you.

I didnt know what to expect when I ordered this I was just looking for a car stereo with bluetooth. Turns out this thing is awesome! Connects right up when I get in the car. Pretty simple install as well. Not a CD player at all so if your looking for that you should check out a different model. But it's a good one. I'd buy it again.

I had many people recommend to me that I should get other brands.... That being said they were Wrong. This things got more setting than a liberal things are genders and sexuualities. Somehow I can have sound lift and it works just as it says. I can choose speaker sizr tweeter size car type whether or not I have a sub bass boost preset eq's an easy eq set with bass mods and treble or go deeper with all them numbers. Songs roll right over the screen with title and artist. Shoot the USB plug charges faster than an illegal running from ice. IF YOU WANT A QUALITY PURCHASE THIS IS THE ONE. go ahead and check Crutchfield and Metra for the wiring harness that will conect to your vehicles existing harness and the plastic to hold it in. Don't use them butt connecter or anything else make it clean and solid using a solder seal wire connector
