best radio for boat

Post by barra mick » Wed Apr 27, 2016 3:07 pm

Anyone have any advice on a good am/fm/cd/usb marine radio and speakers.

Im even considering a marine amp as well if I cant get a decent enough sound.

Watching with interest. The old Milwaukee job site radio needs to be banished from my boat and a real stereo installed one day.

nope
nobody makes a combind communication /stereo system anymore. its a bit funky to get reception plus very limited market

fusion by far make the best accessible marine stereo get ups.

for budget. the Fusion RA70 is a go to player..
1 Din size "if your replacing older units"
4 channel "4 speakers at 50w each"
built in bluetooth
am/fm
bonded glass screen " no moisture or fogging"
idiot proof and decent build quality
