The JVC KW-V40BT is another affordable 2-DIN media receiver. It comes equipped with both Pandora and Sirius XM. And like the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX, it has a DVD player you can use to entertain your backseat passengers.
If you’re an iPhone user, you can use its Siri Eyes Free feature to search your music and make hands-free calls. On top of that, you can customize the look of your display with over 30,000 color choices.
Many customers appreciated this product’s affordable price, and they felt it was exactly what they needed from a digital media receiver. They also felt it was very easy to install, and they loved the crystal clear picture on the DVD player.
However, a lot of people also had major issues with this device not connecting to Bluetooth. Additionally, many others noted that the sound quality is very mediocre compared to similar products.
This product will cost between $250 and $400. Again, this is much cheaper than the Pioneer AVH 42000NEX.
However, it’s also much less dependable. There’s a good chance that you’ll have issues with the Bluetooth if you choose this device. Therefore, you’re probably better off sticking with the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX. The JVC KWV40BT has 3.3 out of 5 stars on Amazon.
