Absolutely BOSS Audio

This receiver/speaker combo package from BOSS Audio is a great way to upgrade the audio on your boat or ATV without emptying your wallet. The all-weather digital media receiver features built-in Bluetooth®, so you can stream your favorite tunes without taking your phone out of your pocket. And your music will sound great on the 6-1/2" marine-rated speakers.

Big performance from a compact receiver

The BOSS Audio MGR450B digital media receiver packs a lot of features into a compact design that fits into a standard gauge opening. Crank up some AM/FM radio, or plug a compatible device into the rear USB or AUX inputs. The pre-set EQ lets you optimize the sound for your favorite tunes, and a full set of preamp outputs will come in handy if you want to expand your system with marine amps and subs.

The backlit LED display lets you see what you're hearing with just a glance, while the IPX6-rated water-resistant face panel and the big, easy-to-use controls are made to resist sun, salt, and moisture.

Rugged, outdoor-ready speakers

The BOSS Audio MR6 marine speakers pair up perfectly with this receiver. These durable 6-1/2" dual cone speakers provide plenty of low-end punch and good clarity, with a water-resistant design that stands up to outdoor use without sacrificing style.

Bluetooth note: Use of this receiver's Bluetooth features will depend upon your phone's Bluetooth capabilities. Learn more in our article explaining Bluetooth profiles.

Marine Gauge-Style Receiver
Marine Two-Way Speakers

Marine Gauge-Style Receiver

IPX6 Certified: The Boss Audio marine gauge-style receiver has been engineered and tested for use in the harsh marine environment. The marine digital media receiver features UV coating and PC board with conformal coating to prevent fading and protect against corrosion. It also features IPX6 waterproof certification, so it can hold up in the marine environment and withstand powerful splashes of water out on the ocean or lake. During testing, water is projected at all angles through a 12.5mm nozzle at a flow rate of 100 liters/min at a pressure of 100 kN/m2 for 3 minutes from a distance of 3 meters.

Note: This unit should not be submerged in water.

Gauge-Style Mount: The Boss Audio marine digital media receiver can fit in a boat's 3" gauge-style opening. If your boat does not already have a gauge-style opening, the marine digital media receiver requires a round 3" cutout in the bulkhead for inserting the chassis. The integrated protective gasket, supplied U-bracket, and included hardware secure the unit in place against the mounting surface. Receiver dimensions are as follows -

Chassis & Cutout: 3" (diameter) x 4.8125" (depth)
Front-Panel: 4.375" (w) x 4.4375" (h) x 1.0625" (d)

Note: The receiver's chassis is round and does not include a mounting sleeve or ISO-mount screw holes to accommodate standard automotive installation.

Bluetooth Audio Streaming: Thanks to built-in Bluetooth 3.0, you can wirelessly stream stored music and music apps from your Bluetooth-enabled Apple iPod/iPhone/iPad, Android smartphone/tablet, or other Bluetooth source device to the Boss Audio marine gauge-style receiver. The unit offers Play/Pause & Previous/Next Track control (there is no song/artist info display).

Note: This unit does not offer support for Bluetooth hands-free phone communication.

USB-A Port: The Boss Audio marine gauge-style receiver is fitted with a rear-panel USB-A port attached to the rear-chassis via a 7" cable. The USB-A port allows you to plug in your USB mass storage class device, like a USB thumbdrive or portable digital audio player (up to 32GB) for playback of MP3/WMA music files (up to 65,000 songs). Your USB MSC device must be formatted in FAT 32. The unit offers Play/Pause & Previous/Next Track control (there is no song/artist info display). If your USB MSC device can be charged via USB, the unit's USB (5V/1A) port will charge your device while connected.

Note: The unit's USB port does not support Apple iPod/iPod/iPad, Android smartphones/tablets, HDDs, or USB hubs.

Aux Input: The Boss Audio marine gauge-style receiver is equipped with a rear-panel stereo RCA Aux input attached to rear-chassis via a 7" cable. The stereo RCA aux input allows you to connect an external audio device with a stereo RCA output. If you have a source device that has a 3.5mm output, then you will need a stereo RCA-to-minijack adapter (sold separately).

AM/FM + Weather Band Tuner: The Boss Audio marine gauge-style receiver features a built-in AM/FM tuner, plus a 7-channel NOAA weather band tuner. You can store up to 12 FM and 6 AM preset stations. You can also select between US or European tuning.

Note: A 41" marine dipole antenna is included.

MOSFET Amplifier: The Boss Audio marine gauge-style receiver is equipped with a MOSFET amplifier rated at 20W (RMS) x 4 channel / 60W (Peak) x 4 channel.

2V/4Ch Pre-Outs + Sub Control: The marine digital media receiver is fitted with a 2-volt front pre-out and a 2-volt rear/sub pre-out. When set to sub pre-out, you can adjust the sub's low-pass crossover (80/120/160Hz) and sub level control (0-12).

EQ: The marine digital media receiver offers 8 EQ Presets - Flat, Jazz, Pop, Classical, Rock, Techno, Vocal, and User. The User mode allows you to manually adjust the unit's Bass, Mid, and Treble. There is also an XBass (Bass Boost) feature that can be turned on or off.

LCD Screen: The Boss Audio marine gauge-style receiver features a front-panel LCD screen with bluish white illumination. The LCD screen indicates source input, AM/FM station number, and menu settings. This unit does not provide song/artist information.

Key Beep: The in-dash head unit provides an audible beep to confirm button operation. This function can be turned On or Off.

Marine Two-Way Speakers

Marine Dual Cone Speakers: The Boss Audio MR6B speakers are designed and treated for use in the harsh marine environment. The marine dual cone speakers feature a cone woofer and cone tweeter. The speaker has a frequency response of 80Hz-20kHz and can handle up to 180-watts (max).

UV Resistant Basket & Grille: The integrated basket and grille are made of durable UV resistant plastic.

Mounting Dimensions:

Mounting Height: 0.875"
Mounting Depth: 2.25"
Cutout Diameter: 5.75"
Magnet Diameter: 3.695"
Frame/Grille Diameter: 7.5"
Number of Mounting Holes: 4 (spaced 4.75" apart)

Included Hardware: The speakers include stainless steel mounting screws and self-adhesive foam gaskets for a watertight fit.

13 questions already asked

is there a 12 pin connector for this unit. Kubota RTX 850 sidekick is prewired with a 12 pin connector?

joseph Nov 01, 2024

1 answer

Hey Joseph, we do not carry a wiring harness for that Kubota but if you reach out to them, you may be able to source one directly that you can hardwire to this Boss radio and just plug into the existing plug. Otherwise you will have to just hardwire into your existing wiring at the plug.

Is there a kit I can purchase to use it on a Harley Davidson motorcycle?

melissa Feb 25, 2023

1 answer

This Boss audio kit is a universal installation marine item, Melissa. We do not have any installation gear available to install this on a motorcycle, sadly. We do have some marine radios that fit a selection of Harley Davidson motorcycles. Use the link below to our online Vehicle Guide and enter your Harley's year, make, model, and specific trim if available. If your bike is in our system, we can show you what radios fit and also pair any available install gear. If you need help deciding, call a live Advisor at 1-800-324-9695 and we can get your order placed! https://www.crutchfield.com/m_266150/Car-Stereos.html

rick Sep 07, 2020

Not sure on the mounting kit but if it's the same size speaker your replacing it should fit right in. These are simple to mount and sound great. Used these in 4 different Bass Boats. Outstanding no problems. Hope this helps!!

michael Sep 06, 2020

clint Jun 15, 2020

1 answer

We have a unique 3 year warranty program with them that is not reflected in the information included in the package. The warranty is through them and handled by us.

Does this unit have RCA outputs?

jeremiah Mar 06, 2020

how many watts does this radio use?

michael Feb 20, 2020

1 answer

This is an interesting question. In terms of watts, it can produce 20 watts of rms power to each of the 4 channels/speakers. It consumes about 8 amps. So doing a little math, it is about 96 watts at half volumen. If you drive it hard, it could peak up to 160 watts of power comsumption. But it is an interesting question since the "power" usage of a a boat radio is measured in terms of amps, not watts.

gerardo Feb 20, 2020

Is there a cover available for the control head?

Can this system be used on a utv side by side?

ellis Sep 20, 2019

1 answer

Yes, both the radio and speakers are marine rated and designed to work on a 12 volt system. As long as you have a place to mount them you should be good to go!

casey Oct 04, 2019 (Staff)

I don't see any power info, does it hook up to battery?

aaron Jun 04, 2019

2 answers

Aaron, the radio gets wired into the vehicles electrical system. Then the speakers are powered by the built in amplifier of the radio. If you have more specific questions please fee free to contact us : https://www.crutchfield.com/support/ContactUs.aspx

thomas Jun 20, 2019 (Staff)

the speakers get power from the radio

tyler Jun 18, 2019

Can you add two more speakers to this system?

sossmoss Mar 26, 2019

1 answer

The Boss radio does have 4-channels of power so you can add two more speakers. We don't sell the MR6 speakers that come included as a separate speaker. You could consider pairing them with something like the Dual DMS 365 which have similar specs and materials. Here is what that would look like with the Boss system and the Dual speakers for the rear: https://bit.ly/2WUf2t0. If you have questions about that setup or want to look at alternative speaker options you can contact me at the number in that cart or any of our Product Advisors here: https://bit.ly/2QNxGQB

Audition speakers before you buy

SpeakerCompare simulates the sound of home and car speakers through your headphones. It lets you compare sonic characteristics between speakers so that you can make a more informed shopping decision.

Why selecting your headphones is important

SpeakerCompare tailors your listening experience to the exact headphones you have, so that what you hear is comparable to auditioning speakers side-by-side in person. Knowing which model headphones you’re using lets us remove any sonic coloring from your experience.

Two different listening modes

In an actual listening room, you'd find that some speakers play louder than others when fed the same amount of power. In equal power mode, you'll hear these differences in loudness as they naturally occur between speakers.

In equal volume mode, we've made the loudness of each speaker about the same. This gives you a more direct comparison of subtle voicing differences between speakers.

Nothing beats listening to speakers in your space

SpeakerCompare gives you a sense of the sonic differences. But performance in the real world is affected by the acoustics of your car or home, your choice of amplification, and your source material. We still believe that the gold standard for auditioning speakers is hearing them in your own environment — that’s why we offer a 60-day money-back guarantee.

Our Listening Kit

To help you choose the right speakers, we recommend using Crutchfield’s SpeakerCompare Listening Kit. It includes a pair of studio-quality headphones, and a guide to getting the most out of your session, and a few other necessary items. We’ve carefully chosen the components of this kit to ensure a crystal-clear listening experience. It’s available for a nominal rental fee, and includes a $25 Crutchfield merchandise credit.
