The bean bag puts the ique at a perfect angle for viewing and the right place for good satellite reception if you place it right in front of the center channel speaker. It doesn't slide around much. Mine has fallen twice, once during a high speed excursion across a frozen lake (hit a big...

I don't have the software with me but I am almost positive you have to go back to the original installation CD and there was a change voice option there.

Try to find a large boat dealer even if it is out of your area. Bigger boat dealers are like bigger car dealers, they have to move iron to stay in business. With the money you save you can easily justify the extra hassle of travel/transportation. Boats are a funny thing, a lot of people buy...
