And now I have confirmed my eyesight is going...

Ordered my diodes this morning.

Where did you order from?
Shipping is usually much more than these parts.

@Cgrohe223 What size ring terminals did you use?

I couldn't tell you what the solution is as I'm not a wiring guy, but I used to get a pop when I'd open the engine hatch etc.. Wired for sound fixed it in like ten minutes.

Dave @ Wired For Sound just did some diagnosing on a speaker that would work intermittently on our boat. He resolved the issue and ended up tuning the whole system as well. Great guy to work with. Efficient and fair $

I was going to get them through a parts house, found them on Ebay for cheaper. It was $8 shipped for 4. Orvak probably has them, but $8 is cheaper than the gas to get there.

Thanks! I dont have my boat here, otherwise I'd just go measure the terminal. They look like #8 terminals, maybe #10.

LOL, that's one of my all-time favorite boating photos.

Does any one know if they make an adapter for remote plugs from this style to this other style

I put a little grey stripe on the black diode

I thought the stripe was a reflection when I first viewed it --- now I see it

I had to run new cables to the remote when I changed head units for that reason.

One is a data link, the other is hardwired.

Mine all one unit though I don’t think you can change out the plug

Found this one looks to have the plug I need but I have to hope it’s the same size as what I have in there now cause I don’t want to see a mark on the dash

I see what you mean now, I couldn’t really see the plug on the back side of the remote but I’m assuming you can change it?

No, one works through voltage or on-off signals (analog), and the other one is digital. The Rockford Fosgate has the same plug as the head unit you posted. It looks like it's a 3" diameter cutout, just check the website and find the specifications.

I just don’t get how Sony doesn’t even offer one to work with their heady it’s for the boat now. So do you think the Rockford one will work then?

Think I found the same one which is a different model but has the same plug

Probably not. So you have a Sony head but it doesn't have the Unilink remote connector?

Ya they said it would work so I ordered it now I’m debating should I just rip it back out

The R-F remote doesn't have the same plug as your head unit.

I think I finally figured out what you're doing... replacing an existing Sony head unit with a new one, and the new one's remote plug is different.

Yep, it looks like a new head unit with a compatible remote is in your future.

Idk what I can put over that hole now cause I just did research it looks like that head unit and remote is from 09! Haha


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk the Rockford is a tad to small I don’t know what to do i do like it though it would match the gauges with the chrome ring

Get RD to spin up a hole cover with the correct opening size and have it chromed. It's a boat, they're supposed to punish you.

That’s the difference in size it’s not much but I don’t know what it will look like on the back size of the old one

Kenwood kmr-d772bt head unit and remote kca-rc55mr remote are what you want to go with, great quality stereo at a fair price

Should fit your existing holes as well

What do you think the bt in the model number stands for?! Lol.

But seriously I have this head unit in 2 of my boats. I took a coworker and a couple ladies out 2 weeks ago and let him hook up his phone because my music is not so people friendly and I was fucking with him from my remote. He had set a song or playlist or whatever while we were anchored out in the cove and i was lounging in the captain's chair just kind of half dozing off at that point. But if i didnt like the song, i would reach over to the remote that i put next to my shifter and hit skip. He thought his phone was going crazy for almost 3 hours. Cheap entertainment lol.

The beauty with that setup is you can get splitter cables and run multiple remotes, I think up to 3? My head unit on the Ultra is next to the co-pilots seat and I have 2 remotes; 1 next to my shifter/throttle control, and 1 on the transom.

I had a 30' Sundancer set up similar to that. Multiple remotes are great to have when the head unit is in the cabin.

Well just ordered this one thanks [emoji849][emoji23]

Those Kenwood/JVC headunits are nice for a boat. I switched to an Alpine HU for their RF remote, I liked the JVC marine head unit I had better though.

My thing is I like when stereo adjustments are just bass treble and mid some have a bunch of different stuff and it’s a pain haha

Yea.. Dont buy an Alpine. The JVC/Kenwoods are easy to adjust if you don't enable the custom EQ

So far after my trip last week I have no more popping in my speakers and my new head unit came in so I installed that but now I’m waiting on a wire extension for the new remote.
