I'm working on a Formula 37pc (boat) and it already has a Kenwood sound system with a remote control on the helm (where you drive) and its not working properly. I was wonderin if there was another brand of steroe system that has a hardwired remote.

In this case, an IR remote wouldn't work because the signal wouldn't reach the cabin where the cd deck is.

 

Why not just replace the headunit, that way it will work with the wired remote.

 

Two of these Sony's are listed as, "wired remote - Optional". I'm going to guess that they support the Sony Remote Commander.

Speaking of boats, if anyone wants to buy a 20' Crownline (350 Mag/Bravo III) drop me a PM

 

Sorry, I forgot to mention we're trying to stay away from marine units and going for a regular car unit. Its a big boat and the unit won't be exposed to the elements.
