About Fusion
Fusion makes audio equipment built for boats: head units, speakers, amplifiers and subwoofers meant to survive salt and vibration and to be driven from a chartplotter rather than a dashboard. Garmin completed its purchase of the Auckland company on 30 June 2014 and has run it as Fusion Entertainment from the same New Zealand premises, extending the range into powersports, recreational vehicles and aftermarket car audio.
