    2013 AR250 screen options

    Fellow people, I own a 23 AR250 and taking this thing out in Florida is great, until I have to read the screen… I flat out can’t see it. What options do I have to upgrade to a bigger monitor? I can’t find anything on YouTube or internet

    Adding Apollo head unit to 252

    I’ve searched and searched. I have a 22 252XE. The audio sucks just like everyone else states. I’m trying to see if anyone has added a head unit and still has any function with their connext(volume/zones). I’d like to add a Fusion WB670 to keep things clean on the dash.

    Speaker/Amp Recommendations

    I want to upgrade the audio system on my boat ('16 AR192). I would like something mid-range/mid-price. The Skar stuff (Skar SK65M speakers and Skar Audio RP-75.4ABM 500 Watt amp) has good reviews... but seems too good to be true for the price? I hate spending money twice, so I'd rather not...

    2021 AR195 on order...thoughts on Premium Audio package?

    I have a new AR195 scheduled to be delivered before the end of the year. Has anyone purchased the Premium Wet Sounds audio package from Yamaha and if so, what are your thoughts? The price is steep but it makes sense given that it's Wet Sounds speakers, amp, and head unit.

    Proposed Yamaha 242 Limited S E-series audio upgrade

    I am thinking about upgrading my factory audio system as shown in the diagram below. Does this look reasonable, or am I missing anything? The upgrade would use a Polk DB1040DVC 10" sub and a Polk D5000.5 5-channel amp. Any thoughts?
