What customers say
The Fusion MS RA770 Apollo is widely regarded as a flagship marine entertainment system redefining industry standards. Users consistently praise the intuitive, high-resolution touchscreen interface, which offers a superior experience compared to older button controls.

Know before you buy
Yes, the MS-RA770 features four independent amplified audio zones, allowing you to adjust volume levels and settings for different areas of your boat separately.
The 4.3-inch capacitive glass touchscreen is designed for marine environments and provides high visibility, though like any screen, it performs best when mounted in a location that avoids constant, direct glare.
Apple AirPlay works over a Wi-Fi network. While you do not need an active internet connection to stream music stored locally on your device, you will need a stable Wi-Fi connection between your device and the stereo.
Yes, the MS-RA770 is designed with a standard single-DIN chassis form factor, making it compatible with most existing marine stereo mounting cutouts.
Absolutely. The system is NMEA 2000 compatible, which allows you to control the stereo directly from a compatible Multi-Function Display (MFD) on your boat's dashboard.
The front panel carries an IPx7 water resistance rating, meaning it is protected against immersion in water up to one meter for up to 30 minutes, provided it is installed correctly with the included gasket.
