We're in the process of spec'ing a new audio system for our boat - head unit, 4 speakers and maybe an amp. Budget is $1,000 and that's firm. We'd like a good, clean sounding system at normal listening levels. We tend not to play the audio all that loud as usually our friends are around playing there stereo systems at an elevated level. There needs to be CD capability in the head unit. Brands are open and if an amp can be included so much the better. A sub isn't necessary either but wouldn't be turned away if the dollars were below the limit. Suitability for a marine application is a must.
Any suggestions as long as they're under the $1K limit are welcome.
