Its black-box format is suited to boats, powersports installations, and other custom systems where a conventional dash-mounted receiver is impractical. It is designed for use with a compatible wired control\/display solution, including the PMX-8DH.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis receiver brings AM, FM, and Weather Band tuning together with Bluetooth audio, USB media playback, auxiliary input capability, and SiriusXM readiness. It gives installers a centralized source component for systems that need multiple listening areas. Dual USB inputs and video playback support add flexibility for compatible media devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe PMX-8BB is built for controlled, system-oriented sound rather than a simple single-zone setup. It supports two-source control and independent volume management across four zones, helping separate areas of a vessel or vehicle receive appropriate playback levels. Dedicated zone processing, a 7-band graphic EQ, and Punch EQ allow the system to be tuned around speaker placement and installation conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts onboard amplifier supplies 25 watts RMS to each of four channels at 4 ohms, while 4-volt RCA outputs support external amplification. Zone 1 and Zone 2 provide front, rear, and subwoofer preouts, while Zones 3 and 4 provide two-channel preouts. Selectable high-pass and low-pass crossover settings with 12 dB or 24 dB slopes help integrate full-range speakers and subwoofers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe PMX-8BB is engineered for marine exposure with an IPX5 water-intrusion rating and a conformal-coated circuit board. CANbus capability enables connection to compatible NMEA 2000 Multi-Function Display systems through the optional PMX-CAN interface. It can also be expanded with compatible Rockford Fosgate wired remotes for a distributed-control installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFour-Zone Control:\u003c\/strong\u003e Independently manages volume across up to four audio zones for larger installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo-Source Playback:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports separate source control for more flexible entertainment layouts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4-Volt Preouts:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides high-voltage RCA outputs for external marine amplifiers and zone expansion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZone DSP and EQ:\u003c\/strong\u003e Includes per-zone processing, 7-band graphic EQ, and Punch EQ adjustment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMarine-Ready Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e IPX5 water-intrusion protection supports use in exposed marine environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCANbus Expansion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Works with the optional PMX-CAN interface for compatible NMEA 2000 MFD systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe PMX-8BB uses a compact black-box chassis that can be mounted away from the helm or dashboard, keeping the main electronics protected and concealed. Its conformal-coated PCB and IPX5 water-intrusion rating are intended for marine conditions. There is no integrated display on the receiver itself, so operation is handled through a compatible remote or display controller.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall the receiver in a dry, secure location with room for the wiring harness, RCA cables, USB connections, antenna connection, and optional accessories. Use the PMX-8DH for full-function display control, or select from compatible PMX-1R and PMX-0R wired remotes; the system supports up to three wired remotes with 100 feet of total wired distance. For NMEA 2000 display integration, add the separately available PMX-CAN interface and confirm compatibility with the target MFD.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rockford Fosgate","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45638572277830,"sku":"PMX-8BB","price":719.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0048\/4163\/5910\/files\/71AODXp2NDL.jpg?v=1784433955","url":"https:\/\/audiowatt.store\/products\/rockford-fosgate-pmx-8bb-hide-away-marine-media-receiver","provider":"Audio Watt Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
