special audio-grade capacitors on the power supply that provide stable
current and reduce unwanted engine noise. All eXcelon receivers use
24-bit D-to-A converters, high pass (8 point) crossovers for front and rear,
and5lowpassfiltersfortherear.Inaddition,alleXcelonheadunitshave
a high gloss black finish and the KDC-X592 and higher offer either 3 or
4-line displays.
Don’t forget that all eXcelon CD receivers play AAC, MP3, WMA files,
have high-voltage pre-outs, USB Direct Control, 1 Wire Direct iPod Con-
nection,auxinputs,SystemQEX/E’s+,andaresatellite,Bluetoothand
HD Radio Ready.
The KDC-X792 has a few tricks up its
sleeve, like a high-resolution (64-color full
dot) customizable display. This unit also
includes RDS technology and Kenwood’s
exclusive Graphic Motion Analyzer.
The KDC-X692’s 4-tone full dot display
makes it easy to browse a song list,
search for a phone number, or read a
short text message.

High Voltage Pre-outs
Make Bag Pipes Sound Good
The 5-Volt and 4-Volt pre-outs on 2008 eXcelon receivers offer a larger
signal to the amplifiers. The larger signal means that the amplifier gains
don’t need to be turned up as high so music is more dynamic with a lower
noise floor and much cleaner, clearer sound. Take the time to explain this
to a customer and it’ll be simple to step them up to a Kenwood eXcelon
in-dash receiver.
RDS (Radio Data System)
AfeatureontheKDC-X991andKDC-X792,RDSallows
small amounts of digital information to be carried over
conventional FM radio broadcasts. This technology is widely used by the
radio stations, and the benefit of radio with RDS is that it can transmit
thingsliketrack/artistinfoonscreen.
KDC-X592 includes the features of the
KDC-X692 but uses a 3-line full-dot display.
This unit also includes blue illumination
effect that can enhance operation and make
the dullest of dashboards look snazzy.
