GME GR350BTB Compact Bluetooth AM/FM Marine Stereo Black 4x40W 2.7 Inch TFT LCD IPX5 Gauge Hole Installation
The GME GR350BTB is a compact Bluetooth AM/FM marine entertainment stereo in black. Sized to fit many existing marine dashboard gauge openings for straightforward retrofit installation without additional panel cutting. Bluetooth wireless audio streaming, built-in AM/FM tuner, USB and AUX inputs, 4x40W speaker outputs, and a 2.7 inch full colour backlit TFT LCD display. IPX5 rated for water spray and splash protection in the marine environment. White version available as GR350BTW.
Product overview
The GR350BTB is designed for vessels where a full-size marine stereo is not practical or where an existing gauge hole provides a ready-made mounting point. Many vessels have vacant round holes in the helm panel after analogue gauges are removed during upgrades. The GR350BTB is sized to fit these standard gauge openings, allowing installation in the existing hole with minimal modification. Confirm your vessel's mounting dimensions before purchasing.
Bluetooth wireless audio streaming pairs with smartphones, tablets, and other Bluetooth-enabled devices for music playback on the vessel. The built-in AM/FM tuner covers standard broadcast frequencies. AM frequency range is 522 to 1620 kHz (9 kHz step, EU/AUS/NZ) and 530 to 1710 kHz (10 kHz step, USA/Canada). Four 40W speaker outputs drive an external marine speaker installation. The 2.7 inch full colour TFT LCD display is backlit and readable in direct sunlight. Current consumption is less than 5.1A at full volume. IPX5 protection covers water jets and spray from any direction, suited to protected helm positions on recreational vessels. IPX5 is not a submersion rating.

Frequently asked questions
What is the gauge hole installation and why is it useful? Many vessels have round holes in the helm panel left vacant after analogue gauges are removed during upgrades to digital display systems. The GR350BTB is sized to fit these existing gauge openings, allowing it to be installed without cutting new panels or modifying the helm layout. Confirm your vessel's mounting dimensions before purchasing.
What does IPX5 mean for a marine stereo? IPX5 means the unit is protected against water jets from any direction, covering spray, splash, rain, and wave action at the helm. It is appropriate for protected helm positions on recreational vessels but is not a submersion rating. For helm positions with heavy water exposure or potential flooding, confirm suitability for the specific installation location.
What Bluetooth devices can the GR350BTB pair with? The GR350BTB pairs with smartphones, tablets, and other Bluetooth-enabled devices for wireless audio streaming. Contact us if compatibility with a specific older device needs to be confirmed before purchasing.
What inputs and outputs does this stereo provide? Audio inputs cover Bluetooth streaming, built-in AM/FM tuner, USB input for audio playback, and an AUX input for external audio sources. Audio outputs are 4x40W speaker outputs for connection to external marine speakers.
Is there a white version of this stereo? Yes. The GR350BTW is the white version with the same specifications. Select black or white based on the vessel's helm panel colour and aesthetic preference.
