Elevating the Seascape: Epic Audio’s Custom Installation on the 2006 Meridian 391

In the world of luxury boating, the 2006 Meridian 391 stands as a testament to elegance and innovation. However, for those seeking an unparalleled audio and navigation experience, then keep reading. In this blog post, we’ll get into the custom installation work performed by Epic Audio, highlighting key features such as Wet Sounds Revo LED speakers, custom subwoofer enclosures, Arc Audio amplifiers, Fusion Marine Bluetooth stereo, GARMIN technology, and the stunning LED speaker lighting that transforms both the atmosphere and functionality of this exceptional vessel.

Wet Sounds Revo LED Speakers:

At the heart of the audio upgrade are the Wet Sounds Revo LED speakers. Engineered for marine environments, these speakers combine cutting-edge audio technology with vibrant LED lighting. Epic Audio seamlessly integrated these speakers into the Meridian 391, delivering an immersive audio experience that complements the vessel’s luxurious design.

Custom Subwoofer Enclosures:

To enhance the bass response and overall audio quality, Epic Audio crafted custom subwoofer enclosures. These enclosures are not only acoustically optimized but also designed to seamlessly blend with the boat’s interior, ensuring a sleek and cohesive look. The result is a deep, rich bass that resonates throughout the vessel, elevating the on-board entertainment experience to new heights.

Arc Audio Amplifiers:

Powering the audio system are Arc Audio amplifiers, renowned for their precision and clarity. Epic Audio strategically selected and installed these amplifiers to deliver optimal performance, ensuring every note and beat is reproduced with unmatched fidelity. The Meridian 391 becomes a floating concert venue, allowing passengers to enjoy music with unparalleled clarity, even on the open seas.

Fusion Marine (now owned by Garmin) Bluetooth Stereo:

For convenient and seamless control of the audio system, Epic Audio integrated a Fusion Marine Bluetooth stereo with a remote at the helm. This not only provides easy access to music and audio settings but also allows passengers to tailor their audio experience without leaving their seat. It’s the perfect blend of functionality and luxury for a modern boating lifestyle.

GARMIN Navigation and Technology:

The integration of GARMIN technology takes the Meridian 391 to the next level of navigation and safety. A 12-inch GPS chart plotter ensures precise navigation, while the GARMIN Fantom radar provides advanced weather tracking. The inclusion of a GARMIN high-definition IP engine camera and backup camera enhances situational awareness, making every voyage safer and more enjoyable.

Full Color LED Speaker Lighting:

Epic Audio didn’t stop at audio quality; they also elevated the ambiance with full-color LED speaker lighting. This customizable lighting solution not only adds a visual spectacle to the boat but also enhances safety by providing soft, ambient lighting during nighttime cruises.

Master Stateroom Garmin GPS:

Ensuring that every corner of the Meridian 391 is equipped with cutting-edge technology, Epic Audio installed a Garmin GPS in the master stateroom. This thoughtful addition ensures that passengers can enjoy the same level of navigation and connectivity in the comfort of their private space.

Epic Audio’s custom installation on the Meridian 391 is a testament to their commitment to delivering a superior audio and navigation experience. From the powerful Wet Sounds Revo LED speakers to the precision of Arc Audio amplifiers and the advanced GARMIN technology, every aspect of this installation is designed to elevate the seascape. The Meridian 391 is not just a boat; it’s a floating masterpiece of audio and technology, offering a journey that transcends the ordinary and redefines luxury on the water.

New Garmin GPSMAP Installed on Cigarette Boat

Owner of Epic Audio, Jason, installed a new Garmin GPSMAP 7610 which is a great 10 inch touchscreen in a local residents very powerful Cigarette Boat.

Before Installation
After Garmin is Installed

Getting a new boat with a touchscreen doesn’t mean that the electronics screen comes with good software or has the current update. This older technology that you may be buying with the boat, may cause more problems than you think. Make sure that you have the newest technology and the most current maps with a system that has the capability to connect with your other electronics.

This is were Garmin comes in with the best in safety and navigation.

With a system that offers so much, we will like to feature a couple in this post to help the residents of Lake of the Ozarks understand the value of a Garmin unit.

Simplified SOS Calling

This exclusive SOS safety assist feature makes it easier for anyone – even those not familiar with marine electronics or radio protocols – to quickly call for Coast Guard help in an emergency. By simply tapping the SOS button on the chartplotter’s touchscreen display, your networked Garmin VHF radio will automatically tune to the Channel 16 emergency frequency and a list of possible situations—fire, man overboard, etc.—will be displayed. Once the applicable choice has been selected, the screen will provide a Coast Guard approved VHF radio distress call script, along with the ship’s current lat/long GPS coordinates, that can be read off to responders – thus saving time, averting panic, and providing the essential information needed by rescuers to assure the best possible outcome.

Upgrade with the Best Maps on the Water

Two SD™ card slots provide expandable memory for accessory map purchases, such as LakeVü HD Ultra with Max Def Lakes or BlueChart g2 Vision that add Garmin patented Auto Guidance and other great features.

FUSION-Link Entertainment System

Enjoy the ability to control all compatible FUSION-Link-enabled audio systems directly from your compatible chartplotter display.

The Ultimate Connected Boating App

Built in Wi-Fi gives you access to the free all-in-one ActiveCaptain® app, so you can manage your marine experience from nearly anywhere. It creates a simple yet powerful connection between your compatible mobile device and your Garmin chartplotter, charts, maps and the boating community. Wherever you are, you’ll have unlimited access to your cartography, the ability to purchase new maps and charts and access to the Garmin Quickdraw™ Contours Community. Stay connected with smart notifications on your chartplotter screen. You can also plan a trip or prefish a lake, and ActiveCaptain will automatically sync with your chartplotter. Even get notifications for software updates, and decide when to download them on your device.

With 1 Panoptix Down transducer, you get 3 remarkable views, allowing you to actually see fish and bait swimming around under your boat – in real time. You can even see fish in the water column in 3-D, from the bottom to the surface. You can be stationary yet still see things in 3-D below your boat.

One Panoptix Forward transducer provides 2 impressive views, even while your boat is stationary. It shows the bottom plus fish and bait swimming in the water column in front of your boat – in real time. You can even see your lure as you reel it in. You can also get 3-D views of fish and structure in front of your boat.

Designate up to 10 different depth ranges each with its own color. Makes it easier to view target depths at a glance.

Commission Autopilot from Chartplotter

To make commissioning easier and more convenient, you can handle the entire autopilot commissioning process from your chartplotter screen.

Axis and FLIR Camera Support

Garmin offers support for select Axis cameras and for select FLIR cameras. These can be used for surveillance and situational awareness on vessels of any size. You can control your camera’s pinch-to-zoom and pan/tilt settings with gestures directly on the plotter screen and view video on multiple screens as well as multiple video streams on the same screen. Use an Axis encoder to convert analog camera, such as Garmin GC 10, to video over IP.

Make sure that you have the newest technology and the most current maps with a system that has the capability to connect with your other electronics.
