Kenwood Excelon KDC-X959 or KDC-MP922(not excelon)?

[Y2A 10+ year member]

Since Im wanting the Kenwood Music Keg, I want a headunit to match it as well. Since these are like the top of the line Kenwood models, which one do you guys suggest? Is the X959 worth the extra $50(MP922 - $499, X959 - $549, crutchfield price), or are there other Music Keg like MP3 changers out there I should get instead?

hmm, well actually, the new top of the line is the Excelon KDC-X969, about $600 on crutchfield.com. Looks **** good to me!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

ahhh the '03's are a out

Looks hella good, has about the same functions as the 919 just with a cooler face set up...oddly still priced the same

The 03 has 5v pre outs...but I'd want to bench that before I believe it.

The 919 at least from what I can tell has nicer EQ's...

922 seems more flashy

x969...ohhh

I have the x969 and let me tell you the deck is hella awesome ! I had the mp919 before that and this one pretty much tops it. Adjustable display and keyboard, angles in and out up and down, graphics are top notch as well as the srs wow and the processors in there. Best money I have ever spent on a deck!

I installed a 969 the other day. I will tell you this, the next deck i own will be a 969. I like it ALOT more than my 8400. I would highly reccomend this deck. It has lots of adjustability. I am going to be picking one up soon (since i can get dealer cost //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif)

Has anyone ever used the Music Keg with the Kenwood 969? I've been using a Neo35 car Mp3 players for about 3 years and just recently got a 969. I've been curious to see the Music Keg in action with this head unit to see if it's better than my Neo, but I can't find any store in my area that has a Keg hooked up to a 969. Anyone seen both in action?
