Wireless speakers??

[gbillman]

I have a Clarion CMD6 aboard...works great with the wired speakers inside and in cockpit. However, i'd like to get 2 speakers for the bow but I don't want to run wires/drill holes/etc. Is there any way to use Wireless speakers?? I know this would require the CMD6 to be able to somehow transmit, but I have no idea if there is some sort of adapter that could make that happen. I'm showing my techy ignorance...

I've got theses but you'll need to be able to plug them in somewhere..

I have seen battery operated speakers with Bluetooth. Comes with the adapter for the stereo output that links to the speakers. I would think the batteries wouldn't last long if you turned them up very loud at all.

Thanks! Looking at the website, I take it the speakers come with a transmitter that wires into the audio-out white/red connectors on the CMD6?? Also, the comments suggest the output is fairly weak...how is it on your boat?? Thanks again for responding.

I don't have that setup, just saw a discussion on this forum about wireless speakers so can't really help. From what I recall they aren't that loud and suck down the batteries. I like good sound so go with wired speakers.

What about setting a pair of speakers at the front of the cockpit pointed forward? You could use the existing wiring and still get sound on the bow.
