The Sony DSX-M55BT digital media receiver is made for marine use, so you can enjoy the same great music you play at home and in your car while you’re out on your boat. Built-in Bluetooth and a handy front USB input give you plenty of ways to play your tunes, while the coated circuit board, UV-resistant front panel, and anti-glare display ensure reliable performance for seasons to come.
Bluetooth Convenience And More
The integrated Bluetooth offers Simple Secure Pairing, so you’ll be streaming music and taking calls on the built-in microphone in no time. You can also plug your iPod®, iPhone®, Android™ smartphone, or other device into the front USB port and play your favorite MP3 or WMA files while charging the device. The front display shows song title and artist info, then gives you caller ID when you get a call.
SiriusXM Satellite Radio
You can also add a SiriusXM satellite radio tuner (not included, requires subscription). Satellite radio offers an unparalleled variety of music, news, sports, and talk, and your favorite channels will stay with you, even when you’re miles offshore. No wonder it’s a feature more and more boaters are looking for.
The Sound You Want
The DSX-M55BT features a built-in Dynamic Reality Amp that’s designed to produce plenty of power without noise or distortion. You can also customize the sound to suit your musical tastes using the built-in 3-band equalizer. If you like bass-heavy music, Sony’s Mega Bass really brings the beat. And the front and rear preamp outputs will come in handy when you expand your system in the future.
You’ll also enjoy plenty of control options with the Sony DSX-M55BT. The intuitive front panel is easy to learn, but you can use the included remote or a Sony wired remote control (sold separately) when you’re away from the receiver.
Installation note: This marine radio is water-resistant, but we recommend mounting it in a water-resistant enclosure or using a cover for best performance. Check out our Installation Area.
