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.

Color Changing Speakers, Controls, and More Lights Installed on Formula 37 SS

We recently installed a lights, sound, and controls to this Formula 37 Super Sport. Adding additional controls gives you the power to change the mood, turn more lights on for safety, and they aesthetically are pleasing. See the additional lights we added in the cup holders.

Then we installed Wet Sounds speakers for an ultimate music and lights experience. The new Revo Series from WetSounds is the best on the market for marine speakers.

Formula Fine-Tunes Day Cruiser Line With Addition of 370 Super Sport

DECATUR, IN—Thunderbird Products has mastered day cruising with the Formula 370 Super Sport. Poised to settle in as a logical transition from the Formula 350 Sun Sport to the 400 Super Sport, the 370 carries off the combination of beautiful styling and exhilarating performance that is expected of a Formula.

The hand of Thunderbird’s exclusive designer, John Adams, is clearly evident in the 370 Super Sport. While striking in line and plentiful in amenities, this performance artist belies its own agility and speed generated by Formula’s stepped-hull FAS3TECH™ technology. With a 21° deadrise, the ride is as solid and confident as that of its FAS3TECH™ counterparts and the 400 Super Sport which preceded it. Speeds in the mid-fifty mph range with stern drive power options of either twin Volvo 8.1 GSi DPs or twin MerCruiser 496 MAG MPI HOs are astounding for a 37′ boat with a dry weight of 14,400 pounds and a generous 10′ 6″ beam.

Inspired by its predecessor, the 400 SS, the 370 is designed with ample room in mind for both cockpit and cabin. Integrated dash steps and the beautiful curved-glass windshield with center walk-through allows easy access to the nonskid foredeck center walkway. Also reminiscent of the 400 is the forward-swept radar arch, adding a continental flavor to the look of the 370.

The cockpit of the 370 SS proves that Formula has mastered the art of designing and building the most advanced day cruisers in the industry. While designed primarily as a daytime entertainment platform, the 370 Super Sport easily slips into the role of extended cruiser. Storage compartments are fully integrated throughout, allowing everything to be stowed neatly in specific areas. Seating and sunning areas are designed for the total comfort of the captain and passengers. A large U-shaped lounge starboard of the transom entry treats passengers to plenty of space and accommodates the entire crew for a meal or snacks by adding the tables. The lounge can also be filled in with the cushions to form a king-size sunning area. Forward, the unique, angled port seat is perfect for three seated passengers or one reclining.

The 370’s command layout illustrates the celebrated Formula demand for correct ergonomics in its cockpits. A sturdy, smartly designed, two-position helm seat provides excellent support while sitting, and also allows the captain to lean back comfortably against the specially designed adjustable section while standing. Monitoring gauges and assessing all on-board systems is a simple, natural extension of the helm. The expansive command seat will also accommodate a passenger, so it is possible to seat 12 people in comfort. Cupholders are plentiful and easily reached by all.

A complete galley wetbar in the cockpit opposite the U-shaped lounge is fitted with a Corian® countertop, integrated sink, pullout refrigerator with beverage rack, built-in trash receptacle and 120V GFCI outlet. The wetbar also includes storage for a standard 17-quart Igloo® cooler, making it easy to transfer beverages or ice from shore. Storage below the wetbar gives plenty of room for entertaining necessities. Sleek, molded fiberglass projects a beautiful, completely integrated appearance, while lending itself to quick cleanups when needed.

The 370 Sun Sport is equipped with an abundance of sleek, molded fiberglass storage areas, making it easy to stow away everything needed for a longer cruise. Beneath the aft seating are voluminous storage compartments, while the aft “trunk,” accessible from the swim platform and identical to the 400’s, has dedicated storage for lines and four standard fenders. It also stores the cockpit tables and doubles as the engine hatch, saving valuable cockpit space. Other storage areas are located under the helm seat and below the dash. Everywhere you look in the cockpit of the 370, you will discover ample, convenient storage.

The cabin, entered through a one-piece, curved acrylic door which slides neatly into the dash, is elegant, with an expansive, curved UltraLeather™ lounge forward. The adjustable height dining table converts the lounge into a double berth. A 26″ LCD/HDTV/DVD combo is built in at the ideal viewing height and angle from the lounge. A Kenwood® AM/FM/CD stereo system with changer is located in the main salon as well as 800W of amplification and an iPod docking station. The galley is a sophisticated work of art, from the Corian® countertop to the high-gloss Deep Cheery-finished cabinetry. A polished stainless sink, integrated trash receptacle and electric stove are standard features. The impressive list of galley equipment also includes a microwave oven. Cabinets are plentiful, and lower cabinets are lighted when opened.

The aft cabin stateroom features a queen-size bed and a large storage area at the foot of the bunk as well as 110V AC, 12V DC and telephone hook-ups. The head compartment is spacious and comfortable with a molded fiberglass vanity, Corian® countertop, stainless sink and seperate shower area with molded-in seat.

Ready to explore local waters with the family or to make a long-range voyage with companions, the Formula 370 Super Sport is sure to fulfill the desires of the day cruiser enthusiast.
