I just installed a new head unit that I can connect to via Bluetooth. The Bluetooth connects up great and you can control your music from any where in the boat.
snyder,
2 common options. 1 is a bluetooth receiver that can connect to your head-units AUX inputs. 2nd, is to install a remote AUX port on the helm. This puts your music source at your finger tips.
This is what I use.

I have been pretty happy with it. I use my iPhone with it and keep the phone on the driver side. There is a short plug that stays plugged into the front of the head unit.
I do this via Bluetooth, you can use the controls on the captains console to skip/start/stop..
You could also run an aux cable over to the captains console instead of Bluetooth, I have a car mount to hold my phone and have an app that raises the volume higher or lower based on the speed..

I'd probably screw number 2 up, so simple connection to AUX inputs would probably be my option. Anyone have any pictures?
Doesn't your receiver have a iPhone hookup?

There was a guy on the Malibu Crew forum that removed the head unit completely and used his Iphone/Itouch to control the audio via Bluetooth. I don't remember exactly how he did it but it looked cool. The thread name was chadilac MXZ. You will have to read through the thread to find it.
i might just do this in my boat..last summer i picked up a new kenwood ( http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...-KMR-700U.html ) and you have to pop open the head unit to hook you iphone up to it. i like that but when you get a call or someone needs there phone its a pain sometimes when everyone throws there crap in front of the head unit
I bought one of these last year and installed it in my boat. Works good, doesn't give you the same clarity as a line in but it does give you the ability to change your music from anywhere.Attachment 19055
I tried the after-market bluetooth add on (not the Wetsounds one), but I just wasn't happy with the quality compared to wired. I ended up running a cable for my iphone from the HU, through the ski locker, up through the footwell. Not real pretty, but I just keep my iphone in the cupholders by my right foot and control the music from there.
I have a belkin aircast, works pretty slick but it does take up the aux pwr plug in the glove box as it needs constant pwr. i went this way so i didnt have to deal with recharging. The wetsounds one is also a great option but requires a little install work but if you have a WS-420 it plugs directly into that.
The Wet Sounds BT is universal. It will interface with any EQ's main or AUX input or head-units with AUX inputs. At the most, you might need a 3.5mm F x male RCA stereo cable.
With a 4v line out, that will work good as a stand-alone source unit, but its way too hot to connect to the AUX of a head-unit.Quote:

Just do not forget the phone on the dock or in the truck.Quote:

Do you think this would work better than Bluetooth
I'm interested to see what the audio experts think. I saw this on WW, and am definitely intrigued. The reviews on Amazon are all very positive, and I like that the music isn't compressed.Quote:

So has anybody tried the Cybox yet? MLA, I see that it is switchable 4V/800mV (from the Australian site: http://www.roswellwakeair.com.au/pro....NBzOYFWe.dpuf)Quote:
