## Description

Fusion Audio lets you wirelessly control Fusion marine entertainment systems from your Chrome device, whether you’re on the move or at the helm. Navigate music sources, playlists, and albums, control playback, and manage playback across devices on the same Wi-Fi network. Album art is displayed on screen for supported connections.

The app includes DSP-based sound tuning using environmental data and Fusion speaker profiles for optimized, protected audio. Over-the-air updates are supported, and control can connect via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi depending on the model (examples include MS-RA770, MS-RA670, MS-WB670, MS-WB675, and more).

## Review summary

Users praise Fusion Audio's app for ease of use and a rich feature set with multi-zone control and strong sound, plus convenient remote control. However, many reviews highlight reliability problems: the app can report 'stereo not found' and experience Bluetooth drops, and hardware volume control is missing. Update procedures can be cumbersome, sometimes needing the head unit to be removed. Apple Watch support is also missing. Overall, the product offers impressive features and sound but reliability concerns recur.

### Pros

- Very easy to connect and use; the app is overall user-friendly.
- Rich feature set with multi-zone control and customizable EQ.
- Strong remote/mobile control: control the system from anywhere on the boat (and via wired remote).
- Great sound quality.
- Installer-friendly with deep settings and good ecosystem integration (USB updates, Garmin/networked devices).

### Cons

- App reliability issues, including frequent 'no stereo found' errors and control failures.
- Bluetooth connectivity drops or becomes unstable.
- Lacks volume control via the phone hardware; users must rely on the app for volume changes.
- Firmware/update process can require physically removing the head unit for updates.
- No Apple Watch support (missing watch-based controls).
