Kenwood DNX7140

roptics · 04-08-2009, 10:56 PM

Hello All,

Beginner here. I have had my 370Z for about a month now and I want to replace the stereo system. I have a base model and I think I want the Kenwood DNX7140. I have no desire for a sub or a lot of audio extras I just want something that gives me Nav, Iphone use, Bluetooth, MP3 and a little better sound.

If I get the above unit can I just get some better 6.5" speakers without any amps or anything? Audio wise I just want some better than the current factory without having to get an amp installed.

ya it will definitely sound better. a good head unit makes a big difference. also, these factory speakers are ****. Amps are great, but not reallllllly necessary (unless ur putting in a sub).

I've got a base model. I'm perfectly satisfied with the way the stock HU looks. What if I just replaced the two door speakers? Would that make the sound better? (I'm not looking for anything amazing, just somewhat better than the crap that I hear now.)

I just installed a DNX7140 into a co-workers car and it's amazing! The new Garmin Nav is top notch! I highly recommend it to you. The Pioneer F-series decks are great also but are being replaced soon!
