JVC KD-X561DBT 3" Monitor DAB, Bluetooth Calling & Music Streaming Car Radio, Rear Camera Input

This unit is great, full of functions, easy to use, not too pricey and that large display is great. sounds great too.

Absolutely the best product out there, SOUND AND TECH IS GOOD QUALITY, also a very easy install, highly recommend

A doddle to fit and sounds pretty good. Fitted this into my Seat Ibiza FR. Got the facia from vag-navisystems which meant I didn't have to relocate the hazard switch etc. Got a Connect2 harness, so no wire cutting and works with the incar controls. Setup was pretty straight forward and with a few tweaks, I'm getting much better sound than the stock stereo. All in all I'm pleased with the result.*edit* I've deducted a star for the whitenoise that is generated by a UI sound and also when bluetooth is used.

Fantastic bit of kit for the price.Easily fitted a DAB windscreen antenna and it worked with the existing wiring loom.Wired into my reversing camera and the screen size isn’t a problem, works well.Looks good and adds DAB and Bluetooth. Very happy.

Contacted Amazon but as it's literally just out of the four week return period I've had to contact JVC directly. The Control Dial is for the majority of the time completely unresponsive (except for pause and mute), which means you can't navigate the menus, or change the volume, and if you get it stuck on a very low volume, or worse very high, then the unit is useless until it starts to work again, some 15minutes down the road.The unit itself is decent, display is crisp and clear to read, the startup time is maybe 8 - 10 seconds. the controls are for most part intuitive apart from having two different menus if you press or hold the menu button. One menu would have been sufficient.Sound quality is decent, no complaints wired up to Focal speakers. Bluetooth to a Samsung S9 is 'almost' flawless, occasionally had it not connect at all but 'turning it off and on again' does actually fix that.All in all, if the control dial worked correctly I'd be happy, considering the price though I'd have hoped the unit would have lasted more than four weeks, and I'd have hoped Amazon would have replaced it no questions ask, but seems not. I'll update if I hear back from JVC support.Update:Well, Amazon told me to try turning it off and on again (not joking), then told me to talk to JVC,.. JVC replied telling me to talk to Amazon.., Amazon's now agreed to send out a new unit, so will see if that lasts longer than a matter of weeks.Update 2: At 5.5 weeks and still working, so far so good.

Good unit and works much better than my previous JVC. Reason for purchase was the benefit of DAB and built in reversing camera option. Seller sent out the wrong item by mistake but after contacting them they made the return and resupply a very speedy process. I would highly recommend Nottingham Hi-Fi and would use them again.

After 2 or 3 hours leaving the car parked i.e. unit turned off, it loses all settings, radio stations, favourites etc. Basically it is back to factory settings. JVC sent me instructions on how to update the firmware, but that made no difference. They gave me no way to get back back to them, just the usual no-reply email, so now I am stuck. And Amazon is no help with anything technical.

I've been unfortunate enough to own this pup of a stereo for over two years, in my work van.When it first arrived, I was pretty disappointed by how poor the software was. The reverse camera screen has a massive warning text which obscures most of the small screen, rendering the function almost useless.Frequent software crashes, bugs made it infuriating. The stereo would often lose bluetooth connection, forget it's settings and most annoyingly keep randomly switching from usb/bluetooth to FM, at full volume. This wasn't down to TA or anything as there has never been an aerial plugged in.The worst bit of this stereo is the I N C R E D I B L Y weak amplifier. I'm an electronic engineer and bench tested it into a dummy load at under 7 watts per channel, and the quality of those 7 watts was awful.Finally, this crock did me the favour of failing almost completely, and I replaced it with a cheapo chinese android unit which is more reliable, has infinitely better sound quality and much better features.Overall, this is probably the worst piece of branded consumer electronics I've ever wasted my money on, and I'm sad that I put up with it for as long as I did.
