The Wet Sounds WS-MC2 marine digital media receiver lets you enjoy your music while you're spending a day on the water. Listen to your Pandora® playlists, plug in a player, or listen to the radio – it'll all sound great with this powerful, compact receiver. The full-color display looks terrific and it's IPX6-rated for water resistance.

If you like versatility, you'll really like this receiver's feature set. Built-in Bluetooth lets you stream music, and Simple Secure Pairing makes it easy to use your Android or Apple smartphone to crank your tunes. You'll also appreciate the global AM/FM/Weather Band tuner, plus a charging USB port and an AUX input for your digital music player.

Pandora Internet radio is a wonderful thing to have on a boat. Just connect your iPhone® or pair your Android phone and enjoy all your favorite stations. You can also plug in a USB thumb drive or portable music player and enjoy music you've downloaded or ripped from your CD collection.

The WS-MC2 sports a clean, functional design that's easy to read, easy to use, and IP6-rated for water resistance  The big, bright 3" TFT display lets you see what's playing, and it's easy to browse through your folders or playlists when you're looking for just the right music.

If you're planning a great marine audio system, the WS-MC2 is a fantastic centerpiece. In a larger vessel, you can set up two separate entertainment zones (full-range or subwoofer) and control them on the receiver's front panel. You can also add a Wet Sounds MC-TR transom remote to control your entertainment while you're enjoying a swim.

As you might guess from the name, Wet Sounds knows a thing or two about marine audio. They're audio experts and boating enthusiasts, so a lot of expertise goes into every piece of gear they design. Wet Sounds audio gear doesn't just give you incredible performance, it's also engineered to stand up to the extremes of the marine environment.
