Reasonably priced and fantastic sound. I love the way it connects automatically when I start the truck. When I get an incoming call, it answers automatically and mutes the stereo – perfect! Dialing out is awkward (they really want you to stop the truck before dialing). I also have to use my cell phone keypad to “enter 1 for english”. The biggest issue is the interface for the cell phone directory. I wish it would just read it dynamically like my Garmin Nuvi 660 does. The KCA-BT100 requires you to “send a business card” for each entry. A lot of key strokes for 90 entries. Other cell phones reportedly can upload the entire directory – but my cell phone provider does not have them. I definitely would buy it again.

I bought this Bluetooth unit because it is a feature of Kenwood’s KVD 719 head unit and I love BT useage and hate having features on my head units that I don’t use. Since installing, I can only get the unit to answer incoming calls, but when I speak, the person does not hear me. Maybe there is a way to turn up the volume, but I cannot find any directions on it. I end the BT conversation by switching to phone mode. I cannot transfer my phone directory at all either. At this point, I do not know if the unit even works, although it is new, because I am not sure if it is compatible with my phone. I use Verizon Wireless, and have the BT enabled Blackberry 8830 Worldphone. Since I still had my former Motorola flip phone and all my contacts in it which paired with my 530i flawlessly, I paired it with the BT100 in my truck one day to see if it worked. It did not work. I have since emailed Kenwood technical support regarding this units compatability, but have not received any feedback. This is the first question you should research before shelling out money for this unit. Kudos to those who do have it working well for them. I am by no means an expert at BT-KW products but will keep trying and researching. Good luck.

I installed it with Kenwood DNX7100 DVD navigation receiver. It works, but so far I couldn’t find how to make it do more than just a headset (pickup/drop calls). I’m not sure if it is my phones’ problem though… Sound quality is good, but I had to balance incoming voice to far right so the microphone will not pick it up and create echo.

**I have a lot of experience and knowledge of electronics, as well as formal education in electrical engineering, if that matters to you…**
I bought a Kenwood Excelon KDCX692 at the same time, replacing my old KDCX832 head unit. I have always had Kenwood electronics (not speakers) in my cars. They make great mobile electronics. I was excited at the idea of integrating Bluetooth into my car. I have a Blackberry 8830 World Edition phone.
I plugged in the unit, stuck the box behind the plastic kick panel on the drivers side (the speaker is in the bottom of the door, in close range to the box, but no problems from that). I then ran the mic cable up inside of the A pillar so the actual mic sticks out at the top of the plastic pillar, out of the way, almost unnoticeable, but within an easy range of my voice. The manual has you running the cord right through the interior of your car, with the mic taped to the steering wheel – ridiculous if you ask me! So I hooked it up, plugged everything in, turned it on…and presto, as simple as plugging a lamp in the wall, everything worked! I had to work with the manual and my own intuition to work through all the functions on the stereo, but this unit itself worked seamlessly. The best thing to say about a product like this is that it installed easily, and then I forgot about it, out of site out of mind. I do not have any problems with feedback, or volume issues.
There are a number of factors that affect the quality/volume/feedback issues, from your car, your speakers, your stereo, and your phone, so no review here will be a universal answer to what you can expect. But my experience has been great.
