Pyle Bluetooth Marine Stereo Receiver - 12V Single DIN Boat In-Dash Radio with Digital LCD - RCA - MP3 - USB/SD - AM/FM Radio - Remote Control - Wiring Harness - PLRMR23BTW

-----------This is an updated review.---------------I recently installed one of these stereos in my center console boat.This time I coupled it with a pair of 150w Pyle 6-1/2" speakers up front and a pair of 300w Kenwood 8" speakers in the back. All I can say is WOW!!! With these speakers, this stereo is amazing! Deep, bowel-shaking bass, clean midrange and crisp highs. I attribute much of the sound quality to the Kenwood speakers, but it's only because the head unit delivers the power. This setup rivals the 1000w stereo in my big boat as far as sound goes. I am truly amazed.------------end new review--------------------Installed this in a 21' deck boat I was planning to sell. Saw the 300W rating, and figured it was exaggerated, especially when I saw the unit. It looked thin and cheap, as the $39 price tag suggested. But I installed it anyway, tied in to (4) 150W Dual 6-1/2" coax speakers.Install was the standard DIN cage - fit in the existing hole easily. Took 10 mins. This WILL fit in a car, by the way. In fact, because it isn't too deep, it will probably fit where some others won't.When I turned on the radio and tuned in a station, I was surprised. Clear, crisp, and solid bass... Then I turned it up, and it got louder and louder. This thing really thumped! I was amazed, and cranked it up to see how loud it would go, and it got louder than I can handle. Made my wife come out of the house to see what was going on. Plenty of sound for when you are on the water with wind and engine noise. NICE!Turned on the bluetooth of my phone, linked them together, and BOOM, now I had my music playing.I have to say, I can't comment on it's longevity, but It worked great for the days I had it before the boat sold. New owner LOVED the stereo, had it playing for the whole test ride. I'm sure that helped sell the boat. Well worth the investment!

Nice product. Works great, looks great and sounds great. Very nice job!!

Installed this to replace a failed stereo in my pontoon. All I really want is Bluetooth connectivity, so don’t care about any of the other features. It wired in easily to my existing harness. One word on that though. Other reviewers have wired the yellow and red leads together to prevent the stereo from draining the battery when the boat is not running. My boat has 2 leads on the harness, one switched and one with power all the time. For now, I wired it as per directions. I’ll probably go back and put a marine switch on the yellow wire to prevent drain. No biggie though. Installing the DIN sleeve into the existing hole in the dash was easy, but the stereo itself does not seem to lock well into the sleeve. It will come out with a fairly gentle push. I wanted to connect a rear support strap, but there was no screw provided and I’m not sure of the size. Not a huge deal, but I’m gonna have to go searching for the right one. Once installed, it fired up right away. Easy connection to the iPhone through Bluetooth. Great sound and seemingly adequate volume. Overall, I’m pleased with it, especially for the price. Contrary to what others have said, it is a marine unit. While not waterproof by any means, the case is plastic coated, there are plugs for external connections and the circuit is lacquer coated. I’ll update this review if I have future problems, but so far it’s doing what I want.

took 10 min to install.. sounds great.....great price

Worked for one summer. It has power, the blue backlighting around the dial is lit, but the screen is dead and nothing works. Support is non existent. Will replace with a better brand. Very disappointed.

Easy to install and sounds great. Great radio. This Iis my 2nd one that I’ve boight.

Ok, but you get what you pay for in this unit. Sound is poor at higher volumes

Works great
