The MB Quart MDR2.0W is a white marine radio: a multimedia digital receiver with a 160 watt internal amplifier featuring AM/FM, Bluetooth and USB. MB Quart lists it for marine and RV use and rates it IPX5.
It suits a boat stereo, a marine stereo replacement or an RV stereo update, and works as a Bluetooth marine radio wherever a 7.0 x 2.0 inch opening is available. Some owners also use a digital media receiver like this as a simple UTV radio in a covered dash. Among MB Quart car audio and marine receivers, this one keeps the controls simple.
