Top-down sound
Boss knows the great pleasure of owning a Jeep or convertible is cruising with the top down. Their MRCP9685A digital multimedia receiver lets you keep the fun in the sun with extensive weather-proofing, just in case there's a sudden shift in the weather. This Boss stereo is "fully marinized,” with a waterproof coating on its surfaces, circuit boards, and connections to prevent corrosion and damage brought on by the elements. You'll enjoy easy iPhone® and Android control from the 6.75" capacitive touchscreen, plus Siri or Google Assistant hands-free control. Built-in Bluetooth® makes wireless music streaming and hands-free calls easy.
Apple CarPlay
CarPlay integrates your iPhone into the driving experience in a seamless interface, allowing you to access iPhone content with the sound of your voice. That means easy access to your music library, audiobooks, phone, messages, navigation, and many third-party streaming music apps, too. Learn more at www.apple.com/ios/carplay.
Android Auto
If you're an Android user, this receiver is ready for your phone, too. Android Auto integrates your Android device into the driving experience without distracting you from the job at hand — driving. You'll have easy voice access to Google Maps, weather, music, and apps, not to mention your text messages. And you can make calls, too, of course. Get more info at  www.android.com/auto.
Plus, Bluetooth
Bluetooth enables wireless streaming for stored music, Internet radio stations, podcasts, and audiobooks. This receiver also lets you take and make calls while keeping your hands on the wheel — an awesome safety feature when you're making your daily commute.
System-building tools
This Boss makes a supreme car command center, with a 6.75" touchscreen display that delivers system control, displays media info, and serves as a monitor for a connected backup camera (not included). The MRCP9685A's rear USB port lets you connect a smartphone, or you can access your digital music library loaded onto a flash drive. Plus, you'll get six ultra-clean preamp outputs for amplifiers powering your speakers and subs.
