With a bold, fresh look and key features, the new JBL-R4500 is the latest in the WAKE Series of stereo components from ProSpec Electronics. Engineered for outdoor audio performance and built to withstand a harsh marine environment, the mechless source unit delivers immersive, audiophile-quality sound.
The large, full-color 4" LCD screen on the WAKE JBL-R4500 displays an easy-to-use layout with bold iconography. Controlled by a raised five-way push button and large rotary tuner, navigation is fast and intuitive. It's NMEA 2000-ready for quick integration into an existing network. It's also wired for easy connection to an Infinity INF-REM1 or Milennia MIL-REM80 remote.
Engineered to master AM/FM and weather band tuning, the WAKE JBL-R4500 features exceptionally fast Bluetooth® BT5.0 with ID streaming and over 100' connectivity. Aux-in and USB with charging inputs provide a wide range of playback options. Dimmable lighting delivers readability in any setting.
Because the WAKE JBL-R4500 was designed for outdoor use, it's not shy of volume. The built-in amplifier blasts 4x55 peak @ 4 ohms. But even with the tunes cranked, sound reproduction is clean and accurate.
Two-ohm stable, the WAKE JBL-R4500 will power up to eight 4-ohm speakers without an additional amplifier. Three sets of line level differentials will control left, right and sub for each zone.
The IPX7 weatherproof WAKE JBL-R4500 can be flush- or back-mounted. The faceplate is 6-7/16" L x 3" W and 3/8" D; the chassis measures 4-1/4" D x 5-1/8" W x 2" H. If flush mounted, the optional silicone rubber UV cover protects the stereo.

Monaco Energy Boats Could Be Heading to Canada
The 10th edition of the Monaco Energy Boat Challenge (MEBC) has wrapped up at the Yacht Club de Monaco (YCM) and it gives a compelling look at the future of electric boating.
The MEBC was started in 2014 as a competition between university teams who built and raced boats powered only by solar power and batteries. To encourage more participation from institutions that may not have naval architecture or boat construction expertise, the YCM introduced the Energy Class competition. The club supplies the student teams with the same one-design catamaran hull, and each team adds their own cockpit and propulsion system that can be powered by any renewable alternative energy sources, not just solar.
