ESX VMR303 Vision Series Marine Outdoor Radio Media Receiver with DAB+ Digital Radio

ESX VMR303

With almost 30 years of experience in the field of car audio and know-how in the naviceiver segment, ESX is now opening another chapter with MARINE AUDIO: Two marine-grade media receivers that meet all the requirements to also be on the high seas are the start good music and high ease of use. Important here is the certification in protection class IP66, so the devices equipped with LCD color displays can also provide good sound in places where moisture, dust and weather conditions cause problems for normal devices. Aside from marine use, the installation-friendly radios can also be used in gazebos, on tractors, in the pool house or in bathrooms thanks to their specifications.

Installation-friendly thanks to the “ALL-IN” philosophy: In addition to FM, ESX also has a very high-quality “Made in Europe” DAB+ tuner integrated, which does not require the usual components to be installed externally. It ensures optimal digital reception, especially in the fringe areas of the densely packed European broadcasting areas. If you are a little further out, i.e. without radio reception, the music can be “streamed” wirelessly from your smartphone or tablet directly as an audio signal into the device via Bluetooth®.

Conventional marine radios often only have a simple monochrome display. ESX VMR receivers have high-resolution LCD color displays that enable clear menu navigation including the display of station logos. The centrally located, large rotary control offers additional comfort, with which you can easily adjust the volume without having to press annoying +/- rockers. As an additional “controller”, an optionally available cable remote control can be permanently installed at another point on the boat to control the functions. A color camera can be connected to the video input, which can be used either for room surveillance of areas or for reverse parking. An external monitor can also be controlled.

The VMR303 has a 3 zone control + sub-output. For example, if there is a bedroom (e.g. zone 2) or bathroom (e.g. zone 3) below deck, music can be played there at separate volumes. This requires an additional amplifier and the optionally available remote controller VMR303C.
