A marine audio system can provide the perfect soundtrack for a day on the water. Whether you’re cruising around the lake or out on the open ocean, your music can add an extra layer of enjoyment to the experience. Installing a boat stereo system is also a great way to improve the resale value of your vessel.
However, there are a few things you’ll need to think about before you move forward:
- Consider the size of your boat. The larger the boat, the more powerful the audio system will need to be.
- Think about how you want to use the system. If you plan on using it for entertainment, then you will need to choose a system that has high-quality speakers and enough power.
- Consider your budget. Boat audio systems can range in price from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars.
Choosing the Right Audio Equipment for Your Boat
Marine audio systems differ from traditional home systems in a few important ways.
- They are designed to withstand the harsh marine environment, including water spray, UV rays, and high humidity levels.
- They are typically much louder than home systems, due to the open-air design of most boats. As a result, it’s important to choose marine-grade components that can handle the higher volumes without distorting the sound.
- They must be able to withstand the vibration and motion of a boat, which can cause ordinary speakers to rattle or fall apart. By choosing quality marine-audio components, you can ensure that your system will withstand the rigors of life on the water.
When it comes to marine audio systems, JL Audio is a well-known name in the industry. If you’re looking for high-quality sound, they are a great choice. Their boat audio systems are designed for durability and performance, and they offer a wide range of products to choose from.
If you’re looking for a complete system, JL Audio offers several options that include everything from speakers to amplifiers. If you’re just looking for a new set of speakers, JL Audio offers several different types of boat speakers to choose from. To help you choose the right audio equipment for your boat, be sure to consult with a professional who can help you select the right products for your needs.
Mounting and Wiring Your Marine Audio System
If you’re thinking about installing a marine audio system on your boat, you may be wondering if it’s worth the investment to hire a professional. While it’s possible to install the system yourself, there are several good reasons to leave it to the experts.
- Marine audio systems are designed to withstand the harsh conditions of the marine environment, including water and high humidity. If you don’t have experience working with marine-grade equipment, you could damage the system or void the warranty.
- Wiring a marine audio system is not like wiring a standard stereo system. The wire harnesses are much more complex, and it’s important to make sure that all the connections are secure and waterproof.
- Marine audio systems tend to be much louder than home systems. As a result, it’s important to make sure that the speakers are properly mounted and braced to avoid damage to the boat or the speakers.
Hiring a professional to install your marine audio system is the best way to ensure that the job is done right. They will have the experience and expertise necessary to install the system properly, and they will be able to help you choose the right products for your needs.

Marine Audio Receivers
At the heart of your marine audio system is the source unit. Some are conventional single DIN sized CD marine-grade receivers. Many of these will have Bluetooth built in so you can stream from your smartphone. We also carry radios that are made strictly for boats and off-road vehicles. These special radios are mech-less – they do not have CD players. They use Bluetooth to communicate with your smartphone as a music source. Most of our marine radios have waterproof remotes available to give you control in other areas of the boat.
Marine Speakers
The speakers your boats came equipped with usually leave much to be desired as far a sound quality goes. Upgrading your boat’s speakers is an easy way improve that. Adding additional speakers spread the music throughout the boat. These usually can be added even if there are no factory provisions available. Also available are marine speakers mounted in enclosures made to attach to wake towers.
The marine environment is extremely harsh on a speaker, with huge amounts of UV exposure and corrosive salt in the air and water. The acoustic environment in a boat is also radically different from a car or home environment. Marine speakers are specifically designed and tuned for an open-air boating environment to achieve optimum realistic sound reproduction.
Marine Amplifiers
Any time you’re dealing with an outside, open-air environment, you are going to need more power to generate a decent level of output from your stereo system. Marine Amplifiers are designed to weather the toughest environments while keeping the boat rockin’. Our marine amps are water-resistant and conform to marine grade standards, so they will continue to deliver the power you need. They use state-of-the-art amplifier design to be efficient, compact and powerful. We even have some that include a Bluetooth receiver so you can use your smartphone with them to supply the tunes.
We will guide you through the process of making the right choices based on your budget and imagination.
