Not that I know of. On my 2018 I used the App on my phone to play through Bluetooth. Worked and sounded fine on my lakes 80% of time. But when I got to that remote lake w/o good cell service, I was out of luck. Not a big deal b/c we typically stream music from different phones over Bluetooth. I was not a big fan for the XM fees and ended up cancelling my subscription.

I did not look into any inputs to plug into, I'm betting there is an AUX plug on the back of the Vision Dash on newer boats. On my previous Supra I had a satellite receiver and antenna (car kit) to plug into the boat head unit (non Vision system). It was all by the driver's helm. Sounded fine.

From last summer and streaming playlists, Apple Music was better sounding vs Spotify or Pandora. it was louder and clearer.

Downloading music worked and sounded the best.
