Fusion Electronics marine audio technology has been accepted by major marine instrumentation manufacturers. Raymarine and Garmin, amongst others, have embraced the Fusion-Link standard to interface Multi-Function Displays (MFD’s) to the Fusion Marine Audio System. A connected MFD can become a control hub for your onboard audio with full remote control and play displayed on its screen.

Fusion’s top range systems feature touch screens, DSP technology, can link to your multifunction display, smart device, or Garmin watch, and send perfect sound to multiple zones on your craft. Check the Apollo series:

SPEAKER “SPEAK”

A 2-way speaker has a woofer and tweeter. The woofer is a speaker built exclusively for low-frequency sounds, while the tweeter is designed for high-frequency sounds.

A 3-way speaker generates sound from three individual devices known as the mid-range, woofer and tweeter drivers.

A subwoofer is a speaker that delivers the lower frequencies, specifically 20-200 Hz.

Before Buying Boat Speakers consider installation size, Bluetooth capability, speaker quality, and watts. Avoid spending money on speakers that might simply break or get water damaged.

Select speakers that blend in aesthetically and are waterproof and weather-resistant for safety and longevity. Compare speaker size, power levels and audio performance to find models that work for you. Bigger boats may need higher-powered speakers.

Consider installation factors – the safe distance from any compass and optimum size for the enclosed space housing your speaker. Research extra features like remote controls, dash control systems, and Bluetooth connectivity.

Generally, marine speakers have an IP65 rating (Dust and water Ingress Protection from splash and spray). If speakers are installed in the less exposed dash or trim of a boat, their construction doesn’t require the protective housing that tower speakers do. However, they are built to withstand UV rays and moisture.

Marine/Wake Tower speakers installed in more exposed positions have a protective cone housing so that UV rays, wind, moisture, and salt don’t infiltrate.

Fusion’s XSeries Wake Tower speakers have an IP67 waterproof rating (theoretically protected from temporary immersion in liquids up to 1 meter in depth).
