It also works fine with my 3g iphone, subject to the same limitations discussed below. Genius playlist functionality is not supported. I only remove it to synch with itunes. It is a wonderful way to utilize the ipod, which stays discreetly in the glove box. Running a DNX8120 Receiver with a 120gb 6th Gen ipod classic. Ideally, they would add a character list so you could navigate directly to that letter of the alphabet.Occasionally the ipod hangs. It seems that the cable and the 6th Gen ipods are not compatible. Receiver says there is no video signal.
I have about 80gb of music on my ipod which translates into pages and pages of screens. Likely, the improvement needs to come from the receiver's operating software, i.e., it's ability to display and play the content from the ipod is only as good as the software that runs it.Observations:No latency between navigating content and ipod response time. Length of use to date is about 6 weeks.Overall I would not be without the cable. Big disappointment as this is the main reason I upgraded to the latest ipod classic.Navigating pages is a little cumbersome. For $30 it's a "no-brainer." However, there is room for improvement. It works as fast as if navigating the ipod itself.Functionality Cons: Cannot navigate back to artist or album selection from a song playing within a playlist.Video content does not display. If I'm trying to get to a song/album that starts with M, for example, it requires a surgeon's precision and some luck to get close to it. The screen just displays "reading." Requires restarting the receiver.
I'm not sure if it's the cable or my ipod but for some reason I cant play any of my videos to my Kenwood sterio system. I have updated everything but still no video so I'm giving this 4 stars, other than that it works pretty good.
This is my second harness, the first is on my wife's car and I liked it so much, I bought this one for my truck.
Product works perfectly with my DDX512, even though I hate iPods, having all your songs in your HU is really nice.
Not much to review since this product is just a cable. However this product makes connecting your iPod to a compatible Kenwood head unit very easy and gives you full control on the iPod as well as charging. With this cable you can connect your iPod stash it somewhere out of the way and never have to touch it again.
