I have a boat which is fitted with a Pioneer Radio/Cassette/ CD changer..

I
also use a laptop computer aboard and the sound system on the laptop is
dreadful.. so it occurred to me that maybe I could buy an amp for me
wireless that had a aux input where I could plug in the laptop and run the
audio output from the laptop through the same amp/speaker that I use for
the
radio...... is that feasible or am I way off mark.. or is there a better
alternative that I won't have to sell the boat to buy.


Assuming the head unit is IP-Bus compatible (in which case it'll have
a P in the part number), you could just buy a Pioneer CD-RB20
(http://www.incarexpress.co.uk/view_p...?partno=CDRB20) and
hook the laptop audio straight into the head unit using a 3.5mm to RCA
cable.
