JVC KW-Z1001W 10.1" HD Floating Digital Media Receiver (does not play discs)

The JVC KW-Z1001W is a 10.1" HD floating digital media receiver designed to blend premium screen visibility, high-end audio performance, and deep smartphone integration—without the need for discs. From its advanced display tech to high-res audio support and multiple camera inputs, it’s built for drivers who want more control, more clarity, and more connection.

Smartphone Features That Actually Work For You

With Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, you can connect your phone wirelessly or with USB—whichever works best for you. CarPlay and Android Auto both support split-screen viewing, so you can follow your GPS while adjusting your playlist, all without flipping between apps. Voice control makes it even safer to handle messages, calls, and music while you’re driving.

Seamless Smartphone Mirroring

Whether you’re mirroring wirelessly (on select Android phones) or using HDMI with an adapter, your phone’s screen shines bright on the 10.1” display. Want to show off your favorite apps or navigate through your calendar? It’s all there—large and clear.

A Floating Display That’s Built to Be Seen

The JVC KW-Z1001W 10.1" HD screen (1280 x 720 resolution) is more than just large—it’s incredibly sharp, with 2.4x the resolution of a standard WVGA panel. Thanks to optical bonding, reflections are reduced and internal fogging is eliminated. That means better visibility in all kinds of weather and lighting.

You can also adjust the display in four directions—height (4 levels), tilt (-10° to +45°), depth (2 levels), and side-to-side (3 positions). This flexibility makes it easier to get the perfect viewing angle in any vehicle layout.

Visual Interface That Feels Personal

The dynamic GUI displays info like the clock, album art, and vehicle data in large, clear sections. Swipe with two fingers to split screens or change what’s displayed. Add a personal touch with Live Wallpaper, which syncs background colors and visuals to the music. You can also upload your favorite images through the JVC Portal App for a custom wallpaper slideshow.

Serious Camera Support for Safer Driving

The JVC KW-Z1001W supports up to four cameras—rear, front, and two additional side cameras. It also accepts a high-definition front or rear camera, displaying at 1280 x 720 resolution with HDR technology, so lighting changes won’t throw off your view. This kind of visual support enhances safety in tight parking spots, heavy traffic, or when switching lanes.

iDatalink Maestro: Advanced Vehicle Integration

With an optional iDatalink Maestro RR or RR2, this unit connects with your vehicle’s factory systems. That includes steering wheel audio controls, factory amplifiers, secondary displays, and even detailed vehicle info like climate controls, performance data, and battery voltage. If paired with a compatible K40 radar detector system, it can also display radar info right on the screen.

Built for Audiophiles on the Move

This receiver handles high-resolution audio playback up to 192kHz/24bit, which contains over six times the data of a standard CD. Whether you’re using a high-res music library or streaming from a supported service, your sound is clearer, deeper, and closer to the original studio recording.

JVC’s K2 technology enhances standard audio files by expanding their frequency range—turning a compressed CD-quality track into something that sounds more alive and spacious. It even restores the frequencies cut off during CD formatting, pushing your music above 20kHz where the finer details live.

Loaded With Digital Radio Options

This unit is SiriusXM Ready and supports SiriusXM 360L, which blends satellite radio with internet streaming. You get access to over 100 music channels, on-demand content, live sports, and personalized station recommendations—if connected to the internet via WiFi and with the correct setup enabled.

There’s also a built-in HD Radio tuner, delivering digital AM/FM with improved clarity and no static. AM stations sound like FM, and FM sounds almost like a CD.

Powerful and Practical Touch Features

Controlling the JVC KW-Z1001W is smooth and intuitive with gesture touch—just move your finger across the screen to skip tracks, adjust volume, or navigate menus. Three 4.0V high-voltage pre-outs offer a clean signal path to your amplifiers with less noise.

There’s a single rear USB port with a detachable extension, capable of 3.0A high-speed charging to keep your devices powered. Compatible with the JVC Remote S app, you can also control your music directly from your smartphone using finger gestures.

An optional remote control (RM-RK259) is available if you prefer physical control from a distance.

The JVC KW-Z1001W is a feature-packed receiver that puts control, clarity, and customization in your hands. It ditches discs in favor of a smarter setup—one that turns your dash into a powerful hub for music, safety, and convenience, all wrapped around a vibrant HD display that actually fits your life behind the wheel.
