Reliable and easy

Second season on my boat and it's still holding up. I haven't had the problems that others are referring to. Works great and is super reliable. Every time it connects to the phone. Slightly smaller increments in volume control would be nice, but that's a minor issue.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Fine

Works perfectly! A++

I was looking for a solution to receive a signal from a Polaris Sportsman radio (made for the RZR). This is a mtx speaker system with its own amp, it works like a charm, connected to the accessory box so when I turn the key off it turns off. It took a long time to find this!

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Compatibility

defect out of the box.

I ordered and left most of the year before installing. After installation, I quickly noticed that the sound cuts out during use. After diagnosing, I found that the problem was with the controller and not with the setup/speakers/amplifier. I had high expectations for this product, but I was in awe right out of the box.

Pros
  • High quality finish
Cons
  • Negative gift

Installing Polaris RZR

This seems to work fine in my RZR. I installed a Rockville amp with Kicker 6x9 speakers in Rockville cassettes. Sounds good. I just don't like the lag between the controller and my phone. It's not bad, but a bit annoying. I'll update when I get a chance to use it on the trails. I recommend building your own system rather than using kits if you have the skills. BT $60, 4 channel amp $100, 6x9 kickers $60, Rockville modules $100 = $320 + taxes and plumbing supplies.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Quality

Just what I needed for speakers

I bought this alongside my 2021 CF Moro 950 Sport. It fits my Hifonics soundbar perfectly and has proven to be dirt, dust and water resistant! I've even accidentally hit it with a pressure washer once or twice and it still works like a champ. The bluetooth capability actually allowed my soundbar to be louder than a single soundbar and I was able to plug it in and use it with a subwoofer and amplifier! Highly recommend if you have a soundbar with RCA jacks and are tired of reaching up or behind…

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Useless features

Questionable quality, beware!

Bought this bluetooth button to pair with a Thor 5 channel amp. I liked that it was a button and no buttons like most nautical things. I also liked that there was an aux port on the bottom to plug in. The first one I got was DOA. The seller replaced it for me. The second worked, however the music randomly paused on my phone while playing. There was no discernible pattern and I had no problems with other Bluetooth devices. I tried it with two other phones with the same result. I ended up…

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Appearance
