![]() It might come in a little less expensive than ol’ big brother, but don’t allow that to fool you: it’s an incredible piece! Why? Read on, friend! The DNX697S from Kenwood’s eXcelon lineup is the “little brother” of the DNX997XR that you might have read about (and won our top honors in the Fully-Loaded category). (Don’t need built-in Garmin navigation? Check out Kenwood’s DDX9907XR model). What are you waiting for? Click the “Add to Cart” button and let’s get you started down the path to audio zen. ![]() These software platforms connect your iPhone or Android either wired or wirelessly (phone-specific) to this Kenwood and allow you to use the on-board navigation apps (think Apple Maps, Google Maps, or Waze) to get you to your destination, control music streaming apps (Spotify, Tidal, Pandora, Apple Music, and more), and also allow you to connect with friends and family via text/phone through Siri/Google Assistant. To quickly circle back to a couple of features we rattled off, we wanted to let you know a little bit more about the wildly popular Apple CarPlay and Android Auto conveniences that a lot of folks are looking for nowadays. How does an extensive sound tuning suite suit you? Or perhaps the touchscreen’s ability to read high-resolution music and help reproduce it in stunning clarity? Not quite sold yet? You also get three years of free Garmin map updates. The DNX997XR still has the built-in Garmin navigation, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, HD Radio, three sets of 5-volt pre-amp outputs for additional external amplification, and a whole lot more. This unit replaces the DNX996XR (which won last year’s top honors) and some mentionable improvements to the new model would be wired mirroring for your iPhone, four camera inputs, and support for Kenwood’s new high-definition backup camera, the CMOS-740HD. We couldn’t think of a touchscreen more deserving of this honor than the Kenwood DNX997XR.
