The marine head unit also offers independent Bass, Midrange, and Treble control (-7 to + 7); along with Balance (L12 to R12) & Fade (F12 to R12) adjustment.

There is Preset Scan function that scans each preset station in the current band for 6 seconds.
Bluetooth Audio Streaming: The JBLPRV275 supports wireless audio playback (AD2P) and control (AVRCP) of a Bluetooth source device, such as your smartphone or tablet. You'll be able to wirelessly stream stored music, music apps and other audio content on your Bluetooth source device to the marine receiver. You'll also be able to control basic playback functions (such as Play/Pause & Previous/Next Track) from the receiver's front-panel. In addition, song/artist/album info (no album art) will be displayed on the unit's front-panel. You can only pair and connect one Bluetooth source device at a time.

Replaced a Clarion GR10BT in my boat with the JBL PRV-275 mainly because it had the extra RCA connections for a subwoofer. I did have to drill out the hole in the dash because the JBL is a little bit larger than the Clarion, but it was well worth it. I love this radio!
