KD-NX5000
Incredible though it may seem, within the single-DIN chassis of JVC’s KD-NX5000 cohabits a complete audio and video head unit and a latest-generation hard-disk-based navigation system. Out front there’s a 3.5” widescreen active TFT, used to display head unit status info, video from the internal DVD player and maps from the navi system, which stores data for 21 countries, 1.3 million Points of Interest and loads of other road data in 15GB of the 40GB internal disk. That, of course, leaves 25GB to store music in high-quality lossless or data-reduced formats. The Hard Disk navigation technology is fast and accurate, and operates even during DVD or CD playback.
