[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 1382332, member: 561023"] #1) Unless you are running B.M.S.-equipped eXcelon amplifiers then the B.M.S. controls in your new head unit are not applicable to your setup. It is a feature used to control certain functions of a few older eXcelon amps (such as the KAC-X401M that runs my bass). Without a B.M.S-equipped amp this function may as well not exist for you. #2) On that particular deck an auxillary input is an optional thing, if I recall correctly, rather than those inputs being built-in like they are on mine. Regardless of that if you are not using an external source other than the head unit (whether it be an iPod, a DVD player, outboard CD or .mp3 player, etc) then this function is more or less useless as well. If you [B][I]do[/I][/B] have an external source of some kind then the audio from that external source can be played in one area, front or rear, of the vehicle (or "zone") and one of the deck's internal sources (tuner or CD) can be played in another. Hope this gives you the answers you were looking for and good luck with your new deck. I am personally a very loyal fan of Kenwood's and have been running eXcelon gear for many years now - just bought the 25th Anniversary XXV-01D head unit for myself and I [B][I]love[/I][/B] it!
