Marine Integration

Hideaway Marine Source Unit: The Clarion CMM-30BB is a hideaway marine source unit that can be mounted out of sight and controlled via a Clarion wired remote controller or compatible NMEA 2000 Multi-Function Display (MFD) - all sold separately. The hideaway marine source unit can be mounted under inside your boat's cabin, helm console, or storage locker. The unit features integrated mounting brackets and comes with four screws. The CMM-30BB measures 5.625" (w) x 2.0" (h) x 7.9375" (d).

Marine Certified: The Clarion CMM-30BB features an IP66-rated weatherproof construction design that protects the hideaway marine source unit from exposure to water-spray and dust. Utilizing UV-treated, durable, marine-rated materials, the Clarion CMM-30BB hideaway marine source unit is built to endure the harsh marine environment. It is built to exceed industry standards for salt-fog exposure (ASTM B117), UV exposure (ASTM D4329), and vibration resistance (3.0G) - ensuring excellent long-term durability.

Note: The CMM-30BB can be exposed to water-spray, but cannot be submerged in water.

Required Wired Remote Control (Sold Separately): The CMM-30BB hideaway marine source unit does not contain any controls or display, and requires a separate wired remote controller (not included). All control and display functionality of the CMM-30BB can be accomplished via a compatible Clarion wired remote controller (sold separately). The Clarion wired remotes are IP67-rated which protects them against water submersion (up to 3.3' for 30 minutes) and dust ingress. The CMM-30BB features an attached 9" proprietary remote cable, while the compatible Clarion marine wired remotes feature an attached 8" proprietary cable. In most applications, you'll need to extend the reach between the CMM-30BB and compatible Clarion marine wired remote. A 6' and 25' remote extension cable is available (sold separately). You can add up to two wired remotes using Clarion's CMC-RC-Y splitter (sold separately) or a maximum of three wired remotes using two of Clarion's CMC-RC-Y splitter (sold separately). The maximum total distance of all connected wired remotes should not exceed 75'.

• CM-R30: The CM-R30 is a full-function, wired remote control with an integrated high-contrast LCD segment display and back-lit rubberized buttons. This remote control perfectly complements the design of the CMM-30BB hideaway marine source unit.
• CMR-20: The CMR-20 is also a full-function, wired remote control with integrated high-contrast LCD segment display and back-lit rubberized buttons.
• CMR-10: The CMR-10 is compact wired remote control that offers basic control functions and back-lit rubberized buttons (no display).

Note: All of the wired remote controls, Y-splitter, and extension cables are sold separately. The Clarion CMM-30BB does not offer wireless remote control.

NMEA 2000 Certified: The Clarion CMM-30BB is NMEA 2000 Certified, allowing seamlessly integration with your boat's onboard NMEA 2000 network for control and two-way communication of the hideaway marine source unit directly from your boat's Multi-Function Display (MFD) device. Two-way communication between the hideaway marine source unit and your MFD allows source selection, song/track/album title, radio frequency and more to display on the MFD interface (including Garmin, Lowrance, and Simrad).

Note: Requires compatible NMEA 2000 entertainment protocols (PGN), and may also require a software upgrade of connected MFD device(s).

Audio Section

Multi-Zone Audio: The Clarion CMM-30BB supports multi-zone audio through its built-in amplifier and 8ch preouts. The built-in 25W x 4ch amplifier is capable of powering a pair of speakers in two separate zones, while the 8ch/3.5V preamp outputs allow up to four zones of audio with selectable Zone 4 or subwoofer functionality. Each zone will playback the same audio source (you cannot playback different audio sources in different zones). You will have independent volume and tone control of each zone (1-2-3-4). You can even rename each zone.

• Zone 1 consists can be powered via the built-in amplifier or from an external marine amplifier.
• Zone 2 can be powered via the built-in amplifier or from an external marine amplifier.
• Zone 3 can only be powered from an external marine amplifier.
• Zone 4 can be powered from an external marine amplifier, or used as sub preouts for Zone 1.

Note: You can rename each zone (1-2-3-4). Choose from Bow, Bridge, Cabin, Cockpit, Galley, Helm, Stateroom 1, Stateroom 2, Tower, and/or Transom. The zone name will display on a compatible remote controller or MFD.

Volume Level Control: You can select how each zone (1-2-3-4) will handle volume level control. You can choose from Variable (a zone has its own level setting), Absolute (a zone will share the same volume as the main volume setting), Sub (subwoofer level control for Zone 4 only), or Off (zone is muted).

Equalizer: The Clarion CMM-30BB offers simple Bass, Mid, and Treble control (-10 to +1) to tailor the sound to your preference. You can also further fine-tune the sound by adjusting the hideaway marine source unit's 5-Band EQ (-10 to +10 per band).

Note: The EQ and Tone settings are applied globally to all zones.

High Pass Crossover: You can apply a high pass crossover to each zone independently. You can select from 120Hz, 100Hz, 80Hz, or Off.

Volume Limiter: You can choose the maximum volume level (0-50) for each zone independently.
