Bryant Boats has signed an exclusive supply deal that names Clarion as its exclusive supplier of marine-grade audio and entertainment systems beginning with 2017 model year boats.
“Bryant chose exclusivity with Clarion for many reasons, the biggest of which was Clarion’s unwavering focus on designing products specifically for the marine industry. Whilst many other companies focus on car or home audio, most treat marine as an afterthought. In contrast, Clarion offers an impressive lineup of durable audio systems specifically designed for use on the water, with marine-grade specifications,” said Bryant Boats president, Ben Dorton. “We plan to broadcast the quality and cutting edge features of Clarion’s audio systems to our customers throughout the world. Our customers identify Clarion as a premium marine-grade audio systems provider and we believe that Clarion is the only system supplier that offers high enough quality and durability suitable for the boats they own. Pairing Clarion’s world-class marine-grade audio systems with our world-class boats was a no brainer.”
Clarion says every component in its marine systems endures a battery of tests replicating prolonged UV exposure, simulating the humid saltwater environment in order to ensure the product can withstand the rigors of the harsh marine environment season after season.
“For decades, Clarion has been a dominant force in marine audio, and today we are proud to offer one of the industry’s largest portfolios of marine-grade audio systems, speakers, amplifiers and accessories,” said Paul S. Lachner, Clarion Corporation of America president. “Bryant Boats takes great pride in handcrafting each of their vessels from the highest-quality materials, as well as outfitting them with the latest technology.”
