Kenwood KMR-D382BT
#16 in Dash and panelFull review
A single-DIN marine receiver for a boat that still plays CDs. Mount it under a cover or in a dry dash, since Kenwood gives it no water rating.

The Kenwood KMR-D382BT rates 2.5 among dash and panel marine stereos; the JBL PRV-175 rates 2.2 among gauge-hole ones. The JBL PRV-175 costs $81.62 less ($157.38 vs $239).
