Decades of advanced sonar engineering meet wicked underwater wizardry; virtual reality joins aquatic reality, and both live to tell their stories—all on the screen of the same high-powered device. The minds at MarCum Technologies unleash the new LX-9—a totally dynamic sonar / underwater viewing experience you’ve got to see to believe. With a panoramic 8-inch split-screen enabled LCD, you can play the interactive ice fishing game in sonar and live action modes, simultaneously. Another MarCum Technologies breakthrough, the LX-9 is the industry’s first sonar/underwater viewing system combo with an integrated digital video recorder (DVR). For the first time ever, anglers can compare sonar signals with live underwater video side-by-side, providing a “big picture” underwater analysis. Learn to read sonar like never before. Quickly distill pertinent structure, lure and fish details that yield potently effective fishing patterns. Plus, record what you see, upload your videos and let your hotspots go viral. The LX-9 operates with all of MarCum’s patented, classic features plus its trademark digital fish-finding dominance. System includes an integrated switchable dual beam transducer alongside a high-resolution color camera boasting SONY Super HAD II CCD optics and 75-feet of cable. Unit is easily transferable to a boat with use of an optional High-Speed Transducer. Abundant digital on-screen displays include camera depth, water temperature at surface and/or camera depth and relative camera direction. Advanced sonar feature list is immense, including user-defined Multifaceted Sonar Display and Dashboard, Sonar Footprint™ Technology and patented Infinitely Adjustable Zoom, Bottom Lock Zoom and Interference Rejection (IR). Includes MarCum’s Automatic Camera Panner and protective SnowShield.

Warnings
- Do not immerse the battery in water or sea water. Keep the battery in a cool dry place when not in use.
- Do not use or leave the battery near a heat source (i.e. heater, furnace, fire).
- Use the battery charger only as directed when recharging.
- Do not reverse the positive and negative terminals on the battery connections.
- Do not discard the battery in a fire, furnace, or other combustible space.
- Do not connect the battery directly to an electrical outlet.
- Do not short –circuit the battery by directly connecting the positive and negative terminals with metal objects.
- Do not directly solder the battery or pierce the battery with a nail or other sharp objects.
- If the battery gives off an odor, generates heat, becomes discolored or in any way appears abnormal during use, or while charging or discharging, immediately stop using it.
- If the battery leaks and the battery contents (electrolyte) gets into an eye, do not rub the eye. Instead, flush the eye(s) with clean water and immediately seek medical attention or it may result in injury to the eye(s).
- Do not use the battery in a location where static electricity or magnetic fields are great or it may result in damage to the battery safety devices.
- Do not leave the battery in high temperatures (i.e. in direct sunlight or in a vehicle in extremely hot weather) or it may overheat, and its performance will be degraded, and service life decreased.
- Tape the battery terminals prior to disposal to insulate them as discarded batteries may cause fire or explosion.
- Follow manufacturers instructions.
Marcum Technologies is a company built upon the sport of ice-fishing, bringing forth patented technology and exclusive features unprecedented in ice electronics. Though at MarCum, our mantra is that features for feature’s sake are worthless unless they put more fish on ice. For the last 20 years, MarCum has brought the bulk of fish-catching invention to the ice market, with a long list of patents, sonar-firsts, and innovations immediately copied by the rest of the industry. MarCum units are hand-built, one at a time, from a blank circuit board on up. All of those advancements have happened right here in the heart of the ice belt, meaning all Marcum sonars are American-made. Below is a list of this year’s systems, and what make them each the top-performing sonar in their respective classes.
The all-new MarCum MX-7GPS pairs GPS and mapping with the most advanced, proven ice sonar of all time. Gone are the days of using open-water sonar simply to get GPS capability; welcome an era of ice-specific sonar/GPS innovated for the rigors and mechanics of our sport.
It could be the most common question found on internet forums, Facebook groups, and among the freshman class of ice’s newest anglers – “Sonar or camera?” Sounds like a simple question. Multiple choice even. The answer has always been straight-forward too, with most experienced anglers leaning towards a sonar first, then purchasing a camera to eventually fill in the knowledge gaps as needed depending upon their species of interest.
Scott Mackner, known by his handle 330 Maniac, is an avid fisherman and content creator from Minnesota. He is known for his fishing and trapping videos, his knowledgeable skill set and his ability to chase down a multitude of species.
He recently sat down with us to discuss why he made the switch to MarCum. From target separation to customizable zoom, Scott breaks down the top 5 reasons he chooses the LX-7 Combo over anything else.
