Dual MXCP50 AM/FM/CD, 4X45W, With 6 1/2" Speaker Pair

Teaming the Dual MX-D50 marine CD player/receiver with a pair of Dual DM-P66 6.5-inch speakers, this audio combo pack includes all the essentials for building a boat-based stereo system. The receiver features a built-in amplifier (45 watts peak x 4) to power the speakers, along with a host of marine-ready extras, such as clear-coated circuit boards, a rust-resistant chassis, and a UV-resistant face with a green display. As a result, the stereo stands up to light rains, ocean spray, scorching sun, and almost any other weather condition.

Combined, the drivers produce an impressive frequency response of 45 Hz to 15 kHz that's even audible over the top of a steady boat engine. Further versatility stems from the system's quartet of EQ presets (classics, pop, rock, and flat), which let listeners customize the audio settings based on genre and taste. And finally, the system offers an auxiliary input that connects a portable audio source, such as a cassette deck, iPod, MP3 player, or satellite radio receiver, for playback over the speakers. The auxiliary jacks are connected to a 6-inch-long pigtail attached to the back of the unit. Additional features include selectable European/U.S. tuning, a rotary control for all audio adjustments, pre-amp outputs, a clock, and speaker power handling of 2 to 20 watts RMS (60 watts peak).
