Bookmark that Song You Want to Hear Again
When you hear a song that you want to hear again while listening to HD Radio, just use the iTunes tagging function to "bookmark" the song and send data to your connected iPod, which allows you to access and purchase the song on iTunes via your personal computer.
Superb Audio All the Time
When listening to music in a moving vehicle, sound quality can be degraded due to road and engine noise. Kenwood's exclusive Sound Excellence audio enhancement feature brings out all of the music masked by this noise, and also includes a unique iPod EQ function that improves the sound of any iPod by deactivating the EQ setting of the iPod and allowing you to select an EQ curve optimized for iPod playback in any vehicle at any speed.
Supreme
When a music file is compressed, some frequencies signals are lost, particularly if it is encoded using a low bit rate. The Supreme technology is a Kenwood-original audio compensation technology that compensates for this loss and reproduces music in a more natural form, thereby making it possible to play music recorded using low bit rates (64k to 96k) in an audio-quality equivalent to music recorded using a higher bit rate (equivalent to 128k). Enjoy a natural, rich sound, even with lower compression ratios.
Memorize Frequently Used Functions
Favorite Memory is capable of storing up to six frequently used functions from diverse sources and recalling them whenever necessary. This means those short cuts to frequently accessed radio stations, phone numbers, iPod songs, setup functions, menu, etc. can be easily stored.
Finding Songs on iPod Made Easy
The head units found in the Regular lineup feature an original Dual Search function for iPod music libraries that uses a combination of Music Search and Skip Search to provide faster access to the songs you're looking for.
USB & AUX Connectors Right Up Front
Certain models have either a USB interface or AUX input terminal or even both on the front panel for added convenience, making connection of external devices with USB or AUX support easier.
Bluetooth Ready
Add the optional KCA-BT200 to enjoy hands-free operation of the KDC-HD942U, allowing you to keep your hands on the steering wheel allowing you better concentration on your driving. Advanced Bluetooth technology provides wireless connection and operation of Bluetooth-enabled devices, such as mobile phones and even phones that can stream music via A2DP.
HD and Satellite Radio Ready
The KDC-HD942U allows you to enjoy SIRIUS (requires CA-SR20V cable + Sirius Tuner) or XM (requires KCA-XM100V + XM Mini Tuner) radio in your vehicle. Enjoy a multitude of channels featuring music, news, talk shows, sports, and traffic information with CD quality sound.
You also can add an HD Radio tuner. When you connect an HD radio tuner, features of the unit are disabled and changed to HD Radio tuner features.

Horrible Ergonomics : Kenwood KDC-HD942U USB/AAC/WMA/MP3 CD Receiver with Built-In HD Radio
I have been desiring a quality HD radio, along with iPod connectivity for awhile now. I finally selected this unit, and after installing it, and using it for several months, I never wish I had purchased it.
I feel like the team who designed the usability, ergonomics, and menu system, must have been forced to work 18 hours with no sleep or something. Did they actually attempt to use and enjoy their creation?
There is absolutely nothing intuitive about this unit. I once gave a passenger the gigantic user manual to read on a road trip so she could learn how to use the iPod feature. Lame. I challenged another passenger to just turn the unit on. No luck.
Here is a rundown of some of the frustrating aspects of this unit:
1. Display VERY difficult to read. I had to switch the unit to "negative" and full brightness. Even then, it is still very dim and hard to read when it's not the blackest hour of the darkest night ever. I have a sunroof too, and the glossy, curved surface of the display totally renders the screen unusable in certain lighting situations. Like daylight.
2. Annoying splash screen. When changing volume, and switching main functions from iPod, HD radio, and standby (why do I even need standby?), there is a very annoying 3-4 second splash screen effect. There is no way to turn it off, at least that I've found in the depth of the most horrible menu system designed by modern man. The splash effect is really annoying when you just turn the volume up a bit, and are trying to read the display for more info about a song. Guess what! You get to wait. Don't hit anything while you are swerving down the road fumbling with this garbage.
3. HD radio. This is maybe a curse of HD radio in general, but if a station does not have an analog signal as well, the unit stalls for 10 seconds while it "links". Reception has not been the best with HD only signals as well. I do like having all the other HD radio stations, but I cannot really tell if the quality is any better.
4. Horrible, horrible interface knob. I have read the instruction manual time and time again, yet struggling to interact with the unit with the main interface control button is counter intuitive and frustrating. For many various functions or this radio, you need to press this button (the far right knob). Because it is a knob similar to a joystick, 70% of the time a press is needed, you will instead inadvertently move the knob up or down, or side to side. Even a slight miss-press will cause this. Pressing becomes a careful, two fingered, spine-tingling escapade of careful, delicate application of force precisely in line with the intended press. Add to this driving down a road, and it's very annoying.
5. Remote. Ok, so I have struggled through the menus. I have finally figured out how to set radio station presets to numbers. The remote has a main joystick button, similar to the radio's main interface button, but thankfully not as sensitive. The bad part is that it functions totally different. Your instinct would be to use this button while in radio mode to switch between station presets. But you can only switch station presets by pressing the corresponding 1-6 numbers on the remote. That works sort of OK, until its dark and you can't see the remote. There is no remote lighting, and no tactile "index" to locate a reference point for your thumb (like a nub on the 5 button, something to feel for, so you know where your thumb is). Very lame. Oh, and try entering a station number, like 105.9. Guaranteed, you will have to pull over, read the manual, try it, read the manual again, just to enter a station. Very, very lame.
6. iPod interface. Love having the iPod controllable via the radio. To bad that radio is this hunk of junk. So, lets say you navigate using the horrible interface knob I mentioned above, through all the typically listed iPod menu's displayed on the radio. I will use an example to listen to a particular song: The steps involved are pressing a search button on the radio face, using the interface knob to select "Artist", then you choose which "Album", then the "Song". Great. Well....unlike the iPod, when scrolling through a large menu like artists, there is no acceleration option. You spin that interface knob, over and over, and over. Yay! Oh, and when you shut the radio off, it won't remember which iPod menu tree you went down, so you'll have to start the whole process over after your 2 minute stop for a Latte. Genius!
I really could go on, but all I want to tell you is please, please don't make the same mistake. Go to a retailer, play with many different radios in person, and then buy on Amazon.com. After this radio experience, I can never recommend a Kenwood to anyone.
