Got this radio for my boat and it works great. Love the result but one thing I don’t like is that if the sun is out really bright is a little to hard to see the screen. I got to cover the radio to see the screen if I’m in a sandbar. Also the remote control in the back keeps turning on and off the radio and moving the volume randomly, I bought a second remote and it took 2 weeks to do the same thing. I ended up disconnecting it. I would love them to try fixing this since I use that remote a lot. Other than that is a great 2 zone radio.
Just made my first purchase with DS18 to start my marine project with some Hydro Carbon 6.5 375 watt speakers. Fell in love with their colors and designs without even touching them. The test will be completed when I receive my first order this Friday January 4th and hook them up for the first time to here the quality. The carbon frame really caught my eye on the their website and I can wait to light them up for the first time. Thanks again to the DS team and I hope to see y'all at the 2022 Desert storm in Lake Havasu!
Great product very loud
It’s exactly what I was looking for and didn’t take up too much space in my dash
