MOJO Pro amplifiers will be on display at the Memphis Audio booth #11039 at SEMA 2022

October 27, 2022 -- Memphis has unleashed a powerful new line of amplifiers to tackle everyone’s pro audio needs. MOJO Pro amplifiers are a new line of impressive pro audio style amplifiers set to be released in early 2023. These powerful Pro Audio models will be available in 3 mono versions: MJP1000.1, MJP1500.1 & MJP3000.1 as well as a powerful 800 Watt 4-channel model (MJP800.4). All MOJO Pro amplifiers are designed with an extruded aluminum chassis with exposed aluminum accents and a vibrant orange accent strip which is befitting of anything bearing the MOJO name. The mono amplifiers are strapable allowing users to combine amplifiers to churn out absurd amounts of power to drive any pro audio system to the limits.

“We have been players in the pro audio game for a good while now and we know just how hot this category has become. Our dealers have been doing a lot of multi-speaker pro audio builds and have been asking for higher powered amps to meet their customers demands. We did what we always do and listed to our dealers and purpose-built these amplifiers to meet their needs. These things look and perform great and we’re confident based on the feedback that MOJO Pro amplifiers will be a huge success for our dealers,” said Nick LoMonaco, president of Memphis Audio.

Memphis tower speakers featuring ATACTM will debut live at SEMA 2022 in the Memphis Audio booth 11039 and will be available in early 2023

October 27, 2022 -- Memphis Audio takes a bold new innovative approach to tower speakers with its new groundbreaking tweeter array design. This patented Memphis Tweeter Array known as ATACTM (Advanced Tweeter Array Construction) is unlike anything ever seen before on a tower speaker. Memphis has opted to ditch the traditional compression horn tweeter for their vastly superior new patented tweeter array design.

The main principle behind the ATACTM technology is fairly simple: Standard compression horn tower speakers have a horn in the center of the woofer resulting in a less efficient woofer. The decrease in efficiency is due to the gasket used to seal the gap between the woofer and the horn. This gasket adds weight to the center of the cone negatively impacting the cones performance. The gap in the center of the woofer also reduces effective surface area which means the woofer moves less air, less air means less output.

By using the bridged tweeter array, Memphis has freed up significant surface area on the cone and reduced a great deal of weight from the center resulting in a significant boost in SPL. In addition to a boost in mid bass, the tweeter array design also excels in tweeter performance due to the innovative nature of the design. Instead of a single horn tweeter, the array design allows for a greater number of individual tweeters in a curved design much like one would see in a high dispersion line array concert speaker.

Memphis 10” tower speakers are equipped with 4 tweeters while the 8” towers have 3 tweeters. The individual tweeters produce a less erratic frequency response than traditional compression drivers which allows Memphis ATACTM to provide more output and a balanced frequency response. In short, this means that the array design produces a better sound with more output. The curved nature of the tweeter array broadens the angle of dispersion leaving you with a better sounding experience from any angle behind your boat.

Another key benefit of this design is huge improvement in durability versus standard compression horn towers. The absence of a center mounted compression horn allows for a completely sealed tower speaker leaving nowhere for water to enter the speaker. This is particularly beneficial in salt water and marine applications which can quickly degrade a traditional tower speaker.

Memphis ATACTM tower speakers are available in an 8” 3-tweeter array design and a 10” 4-tweeter array design and will be dressed in two color options, a brilliant white or a dark black. Both the woofer and the tweeters in the array feature RGB LED lighting resulting in a vibrant lightshow that looks amazing at night. Memphis also added an integrated RGB LED ring around the side of the can itself as well as a rear RGB LED ring making this speaker shine from all angles. The backside of the tower speakers features a large RGB LED Memphis badge emblazoned on the back. Both the rear logo and the front grill can be rotated easily to accommodate any mounting angle of the speaker for an ultra-clean symmetrical look.

Shaq aka DJ Diesel knows how to get the crowd going and we know he wanted it loud so Memphis and the guys at Underground Autostyling went with an insane SRX Pro set up to give Shaq the loudest build on the block. I have zero doubt that this will be one of the most insane builds at SEMA 2022,” said Nick LoMonaco, president of Memphis Audio.

Borla And AudioControl, Partner To Develop A New And Unique Exhaust Sound System For EVs

Clearwater, FL (October 13, 2022) – Borla Exhaust, a world-leader in performance exhaust systems, partnered with AudioControl, known in the vehicle aftermarket industry for its high-performance audio solutions, to bring the Borla Active Performance Sound™ System to life. David Borla, VP, Marketing and Sales at Borla, had a vision to bring the sensory excitement that driving enthusiasts have grown to expect from Borla, now to EV drivers. Electric Vehicles lose an element of driver excitement with the loss of audible exhaust. With its many years of audio processing expertise, AudioControl was able to develop state-of-the-art technology needed for Borla to add that excitement back to the EV driving experience.

Years in the making, Borla’s Active Performance Sound System, utilizes a proprietary Borla algorithm that takes into consideration the vehicle’s speed, power, RPM, torque and load with zero latency. It was developed using professional recordings of actual Borla equipped internal-combustion (ICE) vehicles. Multiple microphones capture all characteristics of ICE audio, including idle, ramps to redline, cruising, throttle lifts, “burbles & pops” and more. Using real-time data from the EV's internal computer, the Borla System generates a hyper-realistic ICE soundtrack that perfectly matches the EV motor status and other vehicle dynamics. The System perfectly pairs with a mobile app where drivers can select from multiple Borla sound technologies including ATAK®, S-Type and Touring all with full control over volume and other characteristics.

“Sound, vision and touch are the 3 senses we use for sport driving and without the real-time feedback of motor and vehicle dynamics through soundwaves and vibration much of that experience is missing,” stated David Borla, who prior to his 25 years at Borla Exhaust was a professional musician. “This product is actually an instrument, in more ways than one. It's like an audio tachometer that provides drivers with that real-time feedback, and it's also like a musical instrument that plays an exciting soundtrack which enhances the driving experience giving the vehicle personality and a sense of soul” Borla said, adding “Afterall, who wants to watch ‘Fast n’ Furious’ movies or play ‘Forza’ with no sound? They go to great lengths to ensure sound is prevalent in those mediums for a reason.”

Don Zaney, Vice President, Product Development at AAMP Global (parent company of AudioControl) said, “We were honored when our OEM partners recommended us to Borla. Once the two companies met, we were convinced it was the perfect marriage of capabilities to bring this amazing new product to life. Throughout the development and testing process it was our number one goal to maintain the highest standards in our areas of expertise; CAN bus integration, digital sound processing and amplification technology”

Featured on MotorTrend’s popular TV show, All Girls Garage, the vehicle-specific kit is expected to start shipping by Fall 2022 for the Mustang Mach-E first and then made available for Ford Lightning and other EV models soon after. It will be on display at the 2022 Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show in Las Vegas in both the Borla booth (Central Hall, #22765) and AudioControl booth (North Hall, #10929). Customers can currently sign up to be notified when the System becomes available.

Borla Performance Industries is the pioneer and leader in performance sound modification and personalization for cars and trucks. The number “78” on their race team vehicles pays homage to the year 1978, when they began modifying vehicle sound by building exhaust systems for Rolls-Royce and Ferrari concours classics. Since that day over four decades ago, Borla has evolved to become the premier choice for enhancing the performance sport driving experience through sound worldwide.

The Cargo Light Uses the Vehicle's Existing 12V Power Source and Simply Replaces the Factory Wiper Motor Cover with Dual 5000K White LED Cargo Light

METAIRIE, LA, Oct. 6, 2022 – Oracle Lighting (www.oraclelights.com), the market leader in creating high quality lighting products and innovative LED solutions for the automotive aftermarket, is proud to announce it will feature its new LED Cargo Light Module (p/n 5887-001; MSRP: $149.95) for 2021+ Ford Broncos during the 2022 SEMA Show, held in Las Vegas, Nev. from Nov. 1-4 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, booth # 20137. The new LED Cargo Light Module is now shipping.

“The Ford Bronco is a great vehicle, but one area for improvement is the factory LED interior lighting in the cargo area,” said Justin Hartenstein, Oracle Lighting director of development. “We have been very impressed with the new Bronco but were totally unimpressed with the LED lighting for the cargo area. The existing lighting doesn't provide enough usable illumination for storage space. The Bronco is made for adventuring, but this lack of lighting makes accessing cargo at night difficult while on the trail, camping, or tailgating. Because of this, we have developed an integrated cargo light module to easily add a bright LED light to the rear hatch cargo space and, at the same time, lights up the area around the vehicle.”

Oracle Lighting’s Ford Bronco cargo light is designed for hardtop models and uses the vehicle's existing 12V power source. The design simply replaces the factory wiper motor cover with the new LED module. Installation is simple. Just swap in the new cover using the included parts and plug the adapter into your rear accessory socket. The lights can easily be turned on and off with the flush switch located on the panel.

Additional features and benefits include:

• Installs in factory location
• Replaces factory wiper motor cover
• Mounts using factory hardware
• Illuminated flush On/Off switch
• Dual 5000K white LED cargo light
• Illuminates cargo space and exterior
• Easy plug and play installation
• 1-Year replacement warranty
• Designed and engineered in the USA
