Elevate your on‑board sound with the Fusion MS-RA770 touchscreen marine stereo—the world‑first system that merges Apple AirPlay 2 streaming with built‑in Wi‑Fi and a robust Digital Signal Processing (DSP) engine. Designed for serious boaters who demand premium audio in every zone, this compact 4.3‑inch glass touchscreen puts control, clarity, and connectivity at your fingertips, whether you’re navigating choppy seas or cruising under calm skies.

Why the MS-RA770 stands apart

Fusion Marine builds marine entertainment with purpose. The MS-RA770 delivers a combination of features that are hard to beat in a compact, weather‑sealed package. Expect pristine sound across multiple areas of your boat, plus effortless streaming that keeps everyone in the moment—without fiddling with devices or interfaces far away from the helm.

• AirPlay 2 on the water: Seamless, high‑fidelity wireless streaming from iPhone, iPad, or Mac to the boat’s zones with minimal setup.
• Built‑in Wi‑Fi plus OTA updates: Stay current with the latest features and improvements without service visits.
• Four independent audio zones: Create tailored soundscapes for cockpit, bow seating, swim platform, or cabin—each zone can have its own source and volume level.
• PartyBus‑Network compatibility: Extend multi‑zone audio across multiple Fusion devices for cohesive, boat‑wide ambience.
• Extensive connectivity: NMEA 2000, optical audio, Bluetooth, ANT, Ethernet—integrating with other marine electronics and high‑fidelity external gear.
• Vivid 4.3" glass touchscreen: Sun‑bright visibility and responsive navigation for on‑deck use, even with wet gloves.
• Rugged marine design: IPX6 and IPX7 water ratings handle spray and immersion in demanding marine environments.
• Powerful stereo core: 280 W peak output to punch through wake and wind, with precise dynamic range for both rock‑solid bass and sparkling highs.
• Versatile input options: Power input from 10.8 to 16 VDC to match most boat electrical systems.
• Warranty: 3‑year coverage for peace of mind on the water.

Real‑world use cases and benefits

Whether you’re cruising with friends, entertaining guests at anchor, or late‑night cruising with ambient tones, the MS‑RA770 gives you precise control over the boat’s soundstage. Imagine tuning four discrete zones so the front deck plays a high‑energy playlist while a quieter beacon in the cabin provides a subtle soundtrack—all managed from the helm. Deliver party energy on the swim platform with a separate, synchronized feed from the cockpit, or stream a playlist directly to external amplifiers via optical audio for theater‑like clarity.

AirPlay 2 integration means you can move between playlists, podcasts, and radio stations with a tap, without reconnecting devices. The DSP engine quantifies the acoustics of your boat’s interior and outdoor spaces, optimizing timing, balance, and tone to deliver consistent, immersive sound regardless of location. With OTA updates, you’ll gain features and refinements over time—keeping the system current without re‑engineering your install.

Who is this for?

The MS‑RA770 is ideal for boaters who want high‑fidelity, Apple‑friendly streaming without sacrificing space or durability.

If you enjoy cruising with music that matches the mood—from sunny day playlists to evening lounge vibes—the MS‑RA770 was built for you.

Compared to traditional marine stereos

Traditional systems often offer single‑zone playback, limited streaming options, or basic analog tuning. The MS‑RA770 redefines expectations with AirPlay 2 integration, built‑in Wi‑Fi for effortless updates, four audio zones for precise distribution, and a DSP that adapts to your boat’s acoustics. Its extensive connectivity ensures you can link with the ship’s instruments and external audio gear, creating a cohesive, modern marine entertainment ecosystem rather than a standalone radio replacement.

Practical tips to get the most from your MS‑RA770

• Place speakers and subwoofers during installation to maximize the DSP’s ability to tailor sound per zone.
• Use AirPlay 2 to route different playlists to different zones for a balanced boat party or a calm, quiet section of the deck.
• Enable OTA updates after installation to access the latest sound profiles and features.
• Leverage NMEA 2000 integration to synchronize media playback with marine instruments for a seamless on‑deck experience.

From rugged build to rich, adaptable soundscapes, the Fusion MS‑RA770 is the versatile centerpiece for modern marine entertainment. It combines a compact touchscreen interface, advanced DSP, and expansive connectivity to deliver a listening experience that’s as reliable as your vessel itself.
