This one lands just above the market median, so the timing isn’t about chasing a new generation so much as buying a mature carplay-era unit at a fair, slightly firm price. With a median of €149 and a 75th percentile of €257 across recent comparable EUR listings, €160 is reasonable rather than a bargain, and it is comfortably below the “ambitious” zone.
As a used double-DIN Kenwood, the appeal is straightforward: Kenwood head units are generally well-liked for solid interface behavior, dependable tuning, and practical CarPlay usability in older cars that still benefit from a clean upgrade. In excellent condition, the upside is convenience and an OEM-like refresh without paying top-of-market money, especially if the install kit, wiring, and microphone are included. At this price, I’d mainly verify the exact model, whether CarPlay is wired or wireless, and that the screen, touch response, and USB lead are all present.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Kenwood traces its origins to December 21, 1946, when it was founded as Kasuga Radio Co. Ltd. in Komagane City, Nagano Prefecture, Japan, by a group of entrepreneurs led by William "Bill" Kasuga. Emerging in the postwar era, the company initially produced electronic components and amateur radio gear, renaming to Trio Corporation in 1960 before adopting the Kenwood name in 1986 to appeal to Western markets—blending "Ken," a familiar name across Japan and America, with "Wood" evoking durability and Hollywood. This rebranding fueled rapid international growth, starting with a U.S. office in Los Angeles County in 1963.
The brand built its legacy on high-quality audio and communications equipment, excelling in home hi-fi amplifiers like the acclaimed 1970 Supreme 1 multichannel model, receivers, tuners, and speakers with innovations such as polypropylene cones. Kenwood also pioneered car audio systems, including the first audio/video amplifier for home theater in 1981 and anti-theft cassette decks, alongside professional two-way radios and amateur transceivers. While maintaining roots in consumer electronics, it expanded into automotive infotainment.
Today, as part of JVCKENWOOD since the 2008 merger with JVC, Kenwood holds a solid mid-tier position in car audio and professional communications, prized by enthusiasts for reliable performance and aftermarket upgrades. Its vintage home hi-fi gear from the 1970s and 1980s commands respect among collectors for robust build and warm sound, though it no longer dominates pure hi-fi markets.
