Summary:
I have just got a kenwood kdc-319 used. It is asking for a code but I don't have it also no remote. How can I get the cd player to to work. I can't do anything with it without a code that it is asking for.

Nice design and look!

Better tech support!!!!!!

Great cd player but does not work well with my car. There is no bass coming out of my speakers. Right now I could buy new speakers or put my stock deck back in and buy a portible cd player and car adapter.

Price Paid:  $140.00 from Sound Domain

Strengths:
Great sound, inexpensive.

Weaknesses:
Intermittent power problem.

Summary:
Unit has the same problem another reviewer noted. It doesn't come on when the faceplate is installed. Happens about 2-3 times a month. You have to reset the unit to get it to work, and since I have the security code set I have to input it everytime it happens. The unit sounds great and works great except for that one nagging problem.

Strengths:
Disc naming feature if you ever get a CD changer. The tuner is incrdibly sensitive. It picks up stations from afar.

Weaknesses:
Never worked properly.

Summary:
Never worked right from the start. It had an intermitten problem where it would not turn on when the faceplate was inserted. Took it back to the installer 3 times, and he could not figure out what was wrong with it. Sounded great when it did work. I returned it for a Pioneer DEH-3400, much happier now. The Pioneer has worked flawlessly. Even the Store Sales Person said "buy a Pioneer, no one ever returns a Pioneer"
