    2008 Dodge 1500 with Nav system

    Can anyone tell me or direct me to a place with some info on this unit? I am trying to find out if it has an aux input somewhere for my Zune or if one can be added to it. Thanks for any and all help.

    Headunit + Zune?

    DRM free or not has no relevance. Where the Zune has a problem is where the Software is concerned. The Zune will only work on a computer that has the software installed. It is not like buying an 80gb hard drive that has a screen built in. Microsoft never meant there multimedia player to be a...

    Headunit + Zune?

    I have a post about this but labeled differently. I use a Zune 80gb and plug it into the Aux connection on my KDC X519. It sounds no where near as loud as using a USB stick. I am relatively unhappy with this. I have the sound up all the way on the Zune and for some reason it must be that...

    Auxilary input vs. USB

    I think the problem lies in the output through the headphone jack vs the output through the proprietary port on the bottom of the device.

    Auxilary input vs. USB

    Then it seems like the answer is yes the SQ is better when using USB over aux for some reason.

    Auxilary input vs. USB

    On my Kenwood X591 I have usb and an Aux input. The USB is awesome. When I hook my Zune 80 into the Aux input though the sound isnt as loud as listening to USB or a CD. I turn the volume up all the way on my Zune and it still doesnt come close to equalling the sound volume of the others. Is...

    ipod and kdc x591

    I C. But then it wouldnt recharge. You have to plug it into the aux anyways. I guess it doesnt matter. I just thought it would be cool to see the song and album art as the song was playing.

    Can a Microsoft Zune be played through the USB inputs on HU's?

    ipod and kdc x591

    so the HU takes it over then? OK well that pretty much settles it for me sticking to usb memory sticks. The only reason I would invest in 1 is for the screen and being able to see album covers. I would want to control it from the ipod. And I was wrong about the touch screen. I just like the...

    ipod and kdc x591

    I got the ipod adapter for free with my headunit. I was wondering though if I buy an ipod can I control the music straight from the ipod or does the HU take over control? A few people I work with have ipods and I had never really seen 1 before. I really like the screens on them and prob...

    Importance

    I had an older pioneer unit deh 4900mb I believe. I think my Kenwood x591 I just got sounds 100% better than my pioneer. If you are looking into adding an amp to the system from what I have read you should buy a unit with good voltage to the rca plugs which feeds the amp. I used to love...

    USB HU question

    Alot of the newer units have the usb cable coming from the back of the unit. My X591 has a cord that I ran into my glovebox. I cut an oblong hole big enough for the end to go through and bought a 3/4 rubber grommet and fitted the hole with it so the cord wouldnt be able to be pulled back...
