Marine radio

[alphaman]

I just saw this set up at a marine dealer. Looks pretty cool. I was told take the speed odometer out and install this Lil radio in its place. Not bad price either

I have a hds unit but
sonic hub doesn't have a radio if I'm correct. And I have an android phone so it wouldn't work.

I have a Fusion MS-IP700i with ipod docking station and love it...it also has a usb port so your droid should work also...im not sure if I would go with Jensen...over the years ive been around them in my dads old work trucks they never seem to last and not good sound.

The sonichub is made by fusion for lowrance. If you get the opportunity to play with one hooked up to an hds touch i think u would get it no question.

Fusion 700

I looked at a few videos for the sonic hub. Getting the sonic hub would make more sense, Being that I have the lowrance hds unit.

I plan on getting a sonic hub too. Pick up a used iPod at a pawnshop and just leave it in the boat

Looked at the sonic hub at cabelas. Wasn't real impressed with the sound, but that may have been just because they had them paired with lower grade speakers. Ive heard a lot of good things about the fusion units. I like the ability to Bluetooth music to it too.

Don't skimp here man, I know you like good stuff, don't get no turd radio in that pretty boat, especially sitting next to the Touch unit!

At minimum, you should see an RPM spike of 200+ each time the bass hits while running.

Lol im Not going all out with big speaker amp etc. Just want a nice radio that will last and to listen to while catching limits every time I'm on the water. Lol

That would be like the one I got. I ended up getting the 700i. Found a good price at hodges marine.

Check out " Wet Sounds "
It's just a blue tooth nob

No radio face or anything just a dial I hear the speakers take a beating too. I don't have it but looking real hard.

I have a Fusion that fogs up in the early morning like a cheap rifle scope. Sent it back to Fusion. They sent it back, supposedly repaired, still fogging! I pressed them about not fixing it and they gave me the "cold shoulder"after that!. Consider looking at the the Kenwood 700u and its reviews before buying a Fusion. Good luck!
