I decided some point back in the summer to connect my iphone up to my Clarion CMD6. That way
I could sit anywhere in my boat or on my dock and control my music. An optional adapter is required to
send and receive the bluetooth signals. It's made by clarion and it connects to the deck. I was not sure how good it would sound since it is wireless but it turned out to be great!
You get a range of around 30'. The only downside is the iphone does not support volume control via bluetooth. This is the fault of the iphone not the clarion adapter or unit.
It would be nice if the boat manufactures offered bluetooth as an upgrade option, however it is very easy to install yourself or have your dealer install it.
One other cool feature if you have the Linc system in your boat and somebody calls, the music will mute and you will hear your phone ring through the speakers and the Linc display will say telephone !!!
Great for waiting for a call from a friend when your blasting your favourite tunes having a cold one on the dock!!!
