Review on Audio Systems MRANT12 Compatible Receivers by Chad Gomez

Close this page! Run away! Buy something else!

Bought this for my pontoon boat and had problems right away. The OD of the centering feature on the bezel was nearly .0700" larger than the ID of the coaxial electrical connector/mounting clip, making it impossible to mount to surfaces less than 3/8" thick. Undeterred (I hate sitting on lakes in silence) I slipped the problematic piece into a mandrel and machined it to size. Problem #1 solved. Then came problem #2: The plug didn't fit in the back of my radio! The soldering was so sloppy, with so much excess solder on the center pin, I went back to the shop to heat it up and clean it to make it fit! to express how glad I am that I had to pace 6 times for a simple installation of an antenna on a trailered boat.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Some small things
