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.

October 26, 2018 -- Memphis Audio’s team has been prepping hard for their largest SEMA exhibition to date. In true Memphis fashion, Booth 11833 will be rocking and open for business in the North Hall of the LVCC. Memphis has invested heavily in the brand’s future with a new state-of-the art double decker trade show booth that will be debuted at the event. The Memphis booth will feature an impressive array of Memphis tower speakers and powersports solutions live on active demo. “We are 100% committed to the future of Memphis Audio, this construction of this new booth is part of our long-term plan for our company. It will maximize our room on the show floor at both SEMA, CES and other future events giving us the ability to treat our dealer partners to a great time while we conduct business,” said Nick LoMonaco VP of Memphis Audio.
The new two-story booth isn’t the only thing that will turn heads at the show. Booth 11833 will feature the hottest vehicle in the North Hall. Memphis will be unveiling a massive 4-seater stretched Polaris Slingshot dubbed the “SlingShaq.” The larger than life Polaris Slingshot is owned by Shaquille O’Neal who partnered up with Memphis Audio and Underground Auto Styling to bring this jaw dropping build to life. The vehicle will feature a custom Memphis system unlike anything that has ever rolled onto the show floor in the LVCC. The build consists of a massive 18 speaker sound system including four 8” Mojo Pro mids, six Street Reference Pro tweeters, eight MXA 6.5” RGBLED Speakers all of which are powered by three Memphis Audio VIV400.4 amplifiers. Memphis certainly didn’t forget about the bass managing to pack two Bass Reference 12” subwoofers inside the build powered by Memphis Audio’s DSP controlled VIV 700.1 amplifier.
“We did a Slingshot for Shaq a few months back here in Florida and he was really impressed with the build and the performance of the Memphis system that he asked for another vehicle to use when he was on the west coast. One really cool thing about this build is that all the speaker pods are production pieces made by UAS (United Auto Solutions) and designed specifically to fit Memphis Audio gear. This build looks totally custom but anyone with a Slingshot can buy these pods to give their slingshot a serious Memphis Audio audio upgrade,” said Jack Polubinski owner of Underground Auto Solutions.
Everyone loves shiny new booths, flashy cars and good fun but Memphis knows that dealers making the trek out to SEMA for the show care about the new products and solutions they need to maximize profitability at their stores. Memphis has them covered with over a dozen new products live on the show floor. “Traditionally we would roll out our new products at CES but our team has been working diligently to hit a target date of SEMA to bring our dealers some amazing new powersports solutions,” said LoMonaco.
Some noteworthy new products on display will include:
- 28” app controlled overhead soundbar with 4 6.5” speakers
- “Headless unit” app controlled Bluetooth source unit
- 6.5” and 8” Compression horn tower speakers
- 6.5” coaxial tower speaker
- 6.5” powersports pods
- 10” and 12” MXA Subwoofers
- Bluetooth knock out controller
- MXA TOP roof audio solutions for side-by-sides
The Memphis Audio booth at SEMA will primarily focus on powersports solutions but that doesn’t mean they put the brakes on car audio solutions. Memphis dealers will see an influx of Memphis car audio solutions debuting in a few short month at CES 2019 in January so stay tuned!
Memphis will have swag and show specials available for attendees of SEMA 2018 and looks forward to seeing you at booth 11833 in the North Hall of the LVCC.

Holly Hill, Fla. – November 5, 2019 – Metra Electronics®, the leading manufacturer of aftermarket automotive solutions, introduces a new LED lighting brand, Daytona Lights™, at the 2019 SEMA Show in Las Vegas. This new brand of aftermarket automotive LED lighting includes ultra-slim and dual-row LED lightbars, cube-style LED lights, and headlight replacement bulbs and decoders at an affordable cost for budget-conscious consumers.
The new Daytona Lights™ value series, manufactured by Metra Electronics of Holly Hill, Florida, (located next to Daytona Beach, FL), has been inspired and named after the area’s history of automotive racing and motorcycle events. This new brand has been engineered and manufactured to meet all international standards while providing incredible value for vehicle owners. All of the Daytona Lights series products are rated IP67 and have undergone rigorous testing during the development and manufacturing process and then again before leaving the factory. Metra Electronics’ 70+ year history, experience and approach to engineering and manufacturing ensures that all of these products stand out among the competitors and provide both quality and value, season after season.
Products Featured at the 2019 SEMA Show:
The Ultra-Slim Lightbar Series (DL-US) has a spot beam pattern and is available in 6 different lengths, from 7.25 inches to 50.25 inches. These lightbars are rated IP67, are constructed of black die-cast aluminum, stainless steel hardware, a polycarbonate lens and integrated-epoxy encapsulated electronics. The slim fit is ideal for installation into tight applications when additional off-road lighting is desired, without the need for an obtrusive or large lightbar system.
The Dual Row Lightbar Series (DL-DR) features a combination of 90 degree flood and 8 degree spot beam patterns, and is available in 7 different lengths, from 8 inches to 52 inches. They are constructed of black die-cast aluminum, stainless steel hardware, a polycarbonate lens and integrated-epoxy encapsulated electronics. These lightbars are rated IP67 and have a military breather port that allows moisture to escape and eliminate fogging. The combination beam pattern and dual-row LEDs provide extra illumination and lighting coverage for off-road use.
The Dual Row Cube Lights (DL-CL1) are 2.75 by 4 inches in size (including the bracket) and come with 6 LEDs. These bright cube lights provide 2,520 raw lumens with a 90 degree flood beam pattern and total of 36 watts. Made with integrated-epoxy encapsulated electronics, a polycarbonate lens and aluminum housing construction, these durable cube lights are rated IP67 and are sold as a pair. They are the ideal addition to any vehicle desiring off-road lighting.
Replacement LED Headlight Bulbs (DL-H) come in single and dual-beam options at a great value. These bright lights are designed to fit into tight spaces with a compact design that doesn’t compromise performance. By engineering a high density fin design, these bulbs stay as cool or even cooler than traditional LED bulbs with bulky heat sinks or messy braid designs. The light output is equally impressive with a total of 6,000 lumens of cool white (6500K) illumination per pair using 20 watts per bulb. Kits are available in the most common headlight sizes.
CANBUS Decoders (DL-HD) will complete a replacement headlight installation and are used with vehicles that have CANBUS systems that monitor the headlights. These decoders are plug-n-play connectors that stop the headlights from flashing and come in a pair with either single-beam or dual-beam options.
The SEMA Show, hosted November 5th - November 8th, is one of the largest trade shows in the world and attracts the industry’s brightest minds and hottest products to one place. The event also provides educational seminars, product demonstrations, special events, networking opportunities and much more. Metra Electronics will have two booths at the event displaying all of their new products from their 12volt brands. See the new Daytona Lights™ product line at Metra’s main booth 11639 in the North Hall and powersports, truck and off-road accessories booth 37017 in the South Hall Upper.

Holly Hill, Fla. – October 9, 2019 – Metra Electronics®, the leading manufacturer of aftermarket automotive solutions, is introducing Heise® High Performance Trailer Lights and Accessories under their existing Heise LED Lighting Systems® brand. Aftermarket trailer customization presents a growing opportunity for installers due to the growing number of non-commercial drivers purchasing trailers to haul their ATVs, UTVs, boats and other cargo, in addition to commercial drivers looking to upgrade their fleet vehicles. Metra is meeting this demand with a new product line that includes products ranging from universal trailer LED marker lights, clearance lights and lightbar brackets to work lights, lighting connection accessories and more. iBEAM® commercial-grade safety products designed for large vehicles are also available in this lineup and new hardware from The Install Bay® offers a convenient “one-stop-shop” for installation professionals to order everything they need from one place.

To add more options for the rear of the trailer, Heise offers 4-inch round trailer lights with 14 LEDs with and without rubber grommets that are sonically sealed and weather resistant.

Each working light is rated IP67 with stainless 316 hardware and integrated-epoxy encapsulated electronics.
Vehicle Safety and Connection Accessories from iBEAM
Reducing blindspots in large trailers or commercial vehicles is a growing priority for drivers. iBEAM has several commercial wireless monitors and cameras designed for larger vehicles where running wires isn't possible or easy. iBEAM also has several heavy-duty cameras with night vision designed specifically for larger commercial vehicles. These existing solutions are included in the new trailer line and new camera connection accessories will be introduced at SEMA.
To allow drivers to quickly power, connect and disconnect the cameras when hooking or unhooking from trailers and other electrical devices, Metra is featuring a new quick disconnect cable and pair of brackets from iBEAM. The new TE-TCEX-1 is a quick disconnect cable with water-resistant seals that has 32 feet of cable to run through the truck to the monitor with a maximum of 10 additional feet of extendable coil at the hitch. The new TE-TRBRKT is a pair of trailer quick disconnect brackets. They are made of heavy-duty metal and have an open slot on the mounting bracket for the disconnects that makes running the cable much easier. These products work together to make connecting and disconnecting the camera from the trailer easier and safer for everyone involved.
Trailer Wiring and Installation Accessories from The Install Bay
New trailer wiring will include a variety of options for installers to provide everything needed for integrating electrical aftermarket parts. New products include, all copper hook-up wire, trailer connectors (with copper internals), all copper trailer wiring plugs (for basic hook-up of the 3 lighting functions), all copper trailer harness (for custom harness applications), all copper trailer wire (for RVs, boats and utility trailers), copper and all copper jacketed primary wire (for auto/truck/construction and light marine), and finally bulk trailer wire colors (for electrical usage in fleet vehicles).
Additional accessories range from connectors, terminals, cables and tubing, to hardware kits and tools. Two featured must-need accessories are the Brake Light Flasher (IBBLF) for use with non-LED third brake lights and the Strobe Flash Controller (IBLEDBLF) for use with LED third brake lights to flash the third brake light for extra visibility. With a wide range of installation accessories from Metra’s 12volt brands, Metra’s new line of trailer accessories is a one-stop-shop for lighting, safety and aftermarket installation projects.

Holly Hill, Fla. – October 13, 2021 – Metra Electronics® announces that it will have two booths at the 2021 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, with booth 12141 in the North Hall and its off-roading and powersports products on display at booth 61041 in the West Hall. This year marks Metra’s 75th anniversary in manufacturing and will be celebrated with a look back at Metra’s car audio history on social media. As Metra Electronics releases new product announcements for the SEMA Show, it will also showcase a look at products from the past, celebrating both old and new innovations in the aftermarket automotive industry.
How Metra Electronics Started
It all began in 1946 at a little shop in Brooklyn, New York, with founder Michael M. Somma fixing and selling TVs and FM radios. Soon, they began creating FM radios specifically for cars under the name MetraVox and found a big demand for installations in taxi cabs. Taxi drivers spent their entire workday in their vehicle and now they could enjoy listening to the radio. Naturally, Metra’s radio kits took off. This is where the business split into a new entity focusing entirely on car audio, called Metra Electronics. Metra manufactured complete radio installation kits that included wiring and harnesses, becoming a pioneer in the car audio industry.
A Change in the Industry
Up to this point, dealerships were a major customer, purchasing radio kits from Metra to install into vehicles before they left the lot. It was in the 1980s that things began to change and transition from OE radio installations to aftermarket. The Custom Aftermarket Sound Association (CASA) was formed and lobbied to make radios optional for car manufacturers. At this point, Single-DIN radios were in use and European models were becoming more prevalent. These models required a different dashboard to fit the standard Single-DIN radio, making installation challenging for all of the various makes and models on the road. Metra Electronics became one of the first to offer a solution, focusing on its support for the radio business by providing dash kits with the installation hardware and essentials required for aftermarket radio replacement.
Metra Grows Through the Years
In the 1980s, it became clear that Metra was outgrowing its operations, which now took up an entire city block with 100,000 square feet of space in Brooklyn, New York. The company needed to find a new home. In 1986, Metra’s corporate headquarters packed up and moved south, settling in Holly Hill, Florida, where the company remains today. Several events helped contribute to the growth of the company, with Metra first attending the SEMA Show in 1980, becoming a fixture at the annual event. Recognizing the importance of developing relationships with face-to-face time, Metra’s President, Bill Jones, took a motorcycle road trip through the United States in 1991, visiting its distributors and customers throughout the region.
In 1992, Mr. Jones realized that an organized training program was needed for an industry that was growing too fast. With no standardized methods for training or schools specifically for 12volt installers, he created Installer Institute in Holly Hill, FL. Since 1992, Installer Institute has graduated thousands of students and helped push MECP and MESA certifications. In 2016, the school became accredited by the Accrediting Council for Continuing Education & Training, and most recently had its 26-week program eligible for Title IV funding so that students could apply for federal financial aid to cover their tuition.
Metra Introduces New Brands
In the early 2000s, Metra grew beyond dash kits, creating Axxess® for vehicle integration and Tsunami® for car audio wiring and audio installation accessories. While Tsunami’s brand name evolved into the T-Spec® and Raptor® product lines, Axxess remains a top name among professional 12volt installers. In 2003, Axxess introduced interfaces to retain the door chimes in Chevrolet, which became the start of a long line of products developed to accommodate the ever-changing vehicle technology seen in different makes and models. The Install Bay® brand was also created to offer all of a shop’s hardware essentials in one place, becoming the largest product line in the Metra portfolio. To complete an aftermarket audio installation, Metra created Shuriken High Performance Batteries® along with Ballistic® sound damping. In 2014, Heise LED Lighting® became its premiere LED lighting brand, soon followed by iBEAM Vehicle Safety Systems®, AmmoTenna®, Metra PowerSports®, Saddle Tramp®, Metra Marine®, Daytona Lights®, and a product line of accessories dedicated entirely to Jeeps®.
In 2001, Metra applied its expertise in car audio connectivity to create Ethereal Home Theater®, a division specifically for HDMI® products and home theater systems. Today, this division has been rebranded as MetraAV® and has grown to include Ethereal®, Velox®, Spyclops®, and Helios® product lines. MetraAV is now known as one of the most reliable manufacturers for premium residential and commercial integration products.
75 years after introducing its first automotive radio kit, Metra Electronics will attend the 2021 SEMA Show to celebrate its innovations over the decades. New product highlights include a growing lineup of dash kits and integration products designed to bring upgraded sound systems into older and newer vehicles. Metra will also showcase accessories and lighting packages designed for Jeep® Wrangler and Gladiator, new RGB and RGBW lighting kits, redesigned LED lightbars from Heise, and new monitors and cameras from iBEAM. In the off-road/powersports booth, attendees will see universal audio products plus audio accessories designed specifically for Polaris® and Can-Am® UTVs. Daytona Lights will also expand its value series of LED lights, doubling its product offerings. For motorcycles, Metra’s Saddle Tramp® brand will introduce new audio installation products and lighting accessories designed to fit Harley-Davidson®. Product announcements will be released with more details closer to the show.
