STILLWATER, USA – KICKER® is the featured audio provider for the new NFL Network’s reality show, "Tackle My Ride," which was announced at the 2016 SEMA Show. The first of six episodes in the initial season airs Tuesday, November 15 at 8 p.m. EST.

“There were many facets of (Tackle My Ride) that really appealed to us,” said Roger Demaree, KICKER Brand and Sports Marketing Director. “The show not only will focus on ‘super fans’ of the NFL and tricking out their vehicles, but also the positive work those fans are doing within their community. I believe this is what separates this show from many of the other build shows currently out there.”

Co-hosted by Super Bowl champion LaMarr Woodley and Demented Customs founder James Torrez, the show will feature team-inspired vehicle makeovers for deserving fans who are making a difference in their own hometowns, while offering an inside look into the lives of their favorite NFL teams and players.  It is the first unscripted program of its kind for NFL Media.

Current players participate in each episode, including Jason Pierre-Paul of the New York Giants, Brandon Carr of the Dallas Cowboys and Joe Haden of the Cleveland Browns. Each week, viewers go inside the player’s garages, learn about the fan’s story and get a behind-the-scenes look at the inner workings of Torrez’s shop.

“NFL Network has given us a tremendous opportunity to bring fresh, authentic and inspiring programming beyond the game for football to fans across the country,” says Executive Producer and 15-year NFL veteran Michael Strahan. “Through the lens of custom-car restoration, the series highlights individual stories of loyal fans-in-need while giving viewers inside access to some of their favorite football stars.”

Once we get to know the owner of the vehicle and the team they love, the restoration process begins. In this intriguing segment of the show, viewers will get to see the Demented Customs crew change each car into the ultimate football fan ride, step by fascinating step. The vehicle’s transformation from ordinary to extraordinary is covered with exceptional detail, as the car turns into a rolling tribute to their favorite NFL club. When an audio system is installed, KICKER mobile audio gear will be the product pumping out the tunes!

“The car customization industry has an attitude, lifestyle and culture all its own,” says Michael Mandt, Executive Producer of Original Content for the NFL Network. “I expect this series will deliver cool access and a great story in each episode.”

KICKER Audio is pulling out all the stops for Jeep Beach 2015 presented by Mid-Florida Jeep Club April 22-26, an annual event for Jeep fanatics with a passion for off-road vehicles. The five-day-long event is held each year at the Daytona International Speedway and Daytona Beach, Fla., where a plethora of Jeep enthusiasts and vendors gather to participate in scavenger hunts, obstacle courses and attempt to break the record for the world’s largest Jeep parade.

KICKER will bring along its newest Jeep demo, equipped with a Wrangler Vehicle-Specific Solutions (VSS™) upgrade system. The VSS audio system is created specifically for a Wrangler’s interior body style with an ability to auto-convert equalization from a hard top to the open air and back again. The system consists of a 10-inch powered subwoofer and an 8-channel amplifier capable of linking to the vehicle’s CAN-Bus and powering the factory audio.

Also included in KICKER’s Jeep Beach lineup is the newly renovated XRV tractor-trailer, fully capable of demonstrating each level of audio product and providing a thrill to those who step inside its “Boom Room.” The “Boom Room” is a sealed-off cabin within the trailer that contains a wall of 12 Q-Class L7 15-inch subwoofers handling more than 16,000 watts.

The rest of KICKER’s entourage is rounded out with a tricked-out Polaris UTV featuring the company’s PowerSports audio equipment, and KICKER dealer Ultimate Auto’s custom Jeep with L7 Subwoofers and IQ-Series Amplifiers.

Jeep Beach bills itself as “the largest Jeep-only, five-day event in the Southeast USA.” Registration during the week of the event is $100 for those who would like to participate and be included in each day’s activities. The event is centered at Daytona International Speedway Friday and Saturday before moving to the beach Sunday for a shoreline cruise.

KICKER has developed six new grilles for the Solo-Baric L7 square subwoofer (2011 model), complete with remote-controllable LED lighting. The KICKER L7 LED Square Subwoofer Grilles are currently available in charcoal and white for 10-inch and 12-inch Solo-Baric L7 subs. All charcoal and white grilles are now available at Authorized KICKER Dealers, including online at kicker.com. Chrome grilles with LED lighting for Solo-Baric L7 will be later this fall.

One of seven LED colors are available during installation, simply by choosing select wires to attach to the positive and negative power terminals. Available separately is the KICKER KMLC LED Lighting Remote, which allows as many as 20 colors wirelessly. The remote also controls brightness (adjustable), adds a strobe effect, randomizes the colors and more.

To ensure the grilles will stand up to life in any marine, powersports or automotive installation, the grilles are constructed with tough ABS plastic, then ASTM-certified for Salt/Fog and UV exposure. Brass inserts were added at the screw locations for a solid connection to the woofer.

The KICKER booth at the 2015 SEMA Show will showcase LED Grilles for the Solo-Baric L7. KICKER will be located in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center, booth #11861.

Stillwater, Okla. – KICKER®, a nationally recognized brand in the automotive, truck and powersports mobile audio markets, as well as home and lifestyle audio segments, has decided to strategically focus efforts to boost brand awareness and sales within the recreational marine industry. Having earned a solid reputation and growth in the wake/surf boat, pontoon and runabout markets over the past 22 years, KICKER’s expansion efforts as Kicker Marine Audio are designed to generate greater recreational boating reach among boating consumers, OEMs and the retail aftermarket.

“We have been operating successfully in the marine marketplace within a few key sectors serving OEMs and dealers nationally and internationally,” said Jeremy Bale, KICKER Associate Director, Marketing-Marine Division, “We believe our newly expanded marine-specific KM Series product line is well suited to meet the demands of boating customers who seek both quality and top-notch audio performance as part of the boating experience. Our durable, waterproof and maintenance-free products are ideally situated to propel both consumer, OEM and after-market growth.”

To help facilitate its long-term plan for enhanced marine consumer and B2B penetration, KICKERhas retained two experienced marine marketing powerhouses and journalists to maximize its efforts.

PR Power’s Marilyn DeMartini, an over two-decade veteran of the powerboat circuit, and Kenton Smith Marketing’s Wanda Kenton Smith, with 35+ years of industry experience, have partnered together on a joint marketing initiative to champion and turn up the horsepower for the KICKER brand. The twosome will assist KICKER with its marine PR/communications and brand marketing initiatives, promotions and sponsorships, special events, and select media initiatives. 

“We interviewed agencies and marketers in the marine sector and our sales, marketing and marine OEM team were impressed by the broad spectrum of experience that both Marilyn and Wanda have acquired over many years working in the industry,” said Bale, “We believe their joint professional connections and experience working throughout all sectors of the marine industry will be extremely valuable to our organization.”

Already, the team has developed and negotiated strategic partnerships with the Boating Industry Elevate Summit/Top 100; the Marine Retailers Association of America’s Dealer Week; and as keynote presenting sponsor for the FLIB Marine Marketers of America luncheon and leadership meeting. The team is also actively engaged in Miami International Boat Show media and event planning, among other major initiatives.

“Having worked with boat manufacturers, brokers and media for over 20 years, it is exciting to take on a marine product that reflects the fun lifestyle of our industry,” said DeMartini who was initially introduced to KICKER through a referral from Speedboat Magazine. “After having an opportunity to meet with the KICKER sales and marketing team at their impressive headquarters facility and learning about their vision, Wanda and I both felt we were uniquely well equipped to help them achieve their goals and objectives.”

“It’s awesome to work with a very smart group of executives who represent a rock solid and very successful global organization such as KICKER,” added Kenton Smith. “I’m thrilled to partner with my long-term professional colleague and friend Marilyn DeMartini and to combine our horsepower and skill sets to benefit and grow the KICKER Marine Audiobusiness.”

KICKER has built its 46-year “Livin’ Loud” legacy from a two-man operation, hand-building professional speaker systems in a one-car garage to its current 280,000 square foot World Headquarters and visitors center in Stillwater, OK. Stillwater Designs, manufacturer of KICKER products, employs more than 200 dedicated music lovers, who like founder and president, Steve Irby, take pride not only in the company’s products, but in its impressive showroom—a museum that showcases the history of its line, unique vehicles and the “Wall of Boom” sound experience.

Irby developed the first full frequency-range speaker box, designed specifically for cars and trucks and pioneered the mobile stereo enclosure market. The brand is known for delivering concert-like audio quality across a wide volume range with renowned bass and accurate sound.

Over the years, KICKER evolved into lifestyle personal and home product for digital media devices, including Bluetoothâ speaker systems, the Bullfrogâ wireless outdoor speaker, high-performance Taborä Bluetooth and wireless headphones, and micro-fit noise-isolating in-ear headsets. KICKER may be best known as the top mobile audio manufacturer of automotive, truck and powersports sound systems, audio upgrades for Ford, Dodge and GMC and more recently as the supplier of the popular GMC MultiPro Tailgate Audio System.

The company’s authorized dealer network spans 1,200 across the U.S. and export sales are served through a network of distributors serving over 2,000 dealers in 50 countries.

KICKER Marine Audio components include the highest grade of durable and waterproof source units, subwoofers, coaxials, amplifiers, towers and enclosures. Colorful lighting is incorporated into the speaker systems with a remote that can change colors with lighting modes and 20 colors. Some of its OEM customers include premium brands like Advantage, Bennington, Cruisers Yachts, Four Winns, Glastron, Scarab, Sea Ray and World Cat.

KICKER’s mission is to continue to be on the industry’s cutting edge, pushing the limits of audio design technology, performance and integration in the quest for ultimate sound. 

STILLWATER, USA – For the first time in its 43-year history, KICKER® has developed and perfected high-performance media centers for the marine market, and consumers can purchase them now at authorized KICKER dealers. The KICKER KMC10 Media Center and KMC20 Premium Media Center deliver all-weather performance with IPX6 waterproof certification, as well as ASTM salt/fog and ultraviolet exposure guarantees. The radios and their accessory product KRC15 Digital Remote Commander are the first source units to carry the KICKER label.

Bluetooth® devices easily pair with either KMC Media Center, and once a device is initialized, a custom 12-character source name can be added. While streaming Bluetooth audio, station and artist info appears on the screen. Cover art can even be displayed during playback when connecting a phone to either KMC’s USB charging ports.

The KMC20 Premium Media Center (MSRP $749.95) was designed for full ease of use on the water. The full-color, sunlight-viewable LCD screen includes day/night mode and controls several sources including Bluetooth, SiriusXM®, AM/FM, in addition to a pair of RCA auxiliary connections and two USB inputs.  It also provides dual-zone entertainment control on the boat, allowing independent source, track/station and volume commands from the head unit or from the KRC15 Remote if installed. The second zone can also be named independently. 

The KMC20’s small-footprint, controller display allows for outstanding installation flexibility in an environment where space is always at a premium. The full-color controller is attached to an outboard processor by a single six-foot cable, and it provides three sets of RCAs for amplification, ready for a full complement of amplifiers including a dedicated subwoofer output.

The KMC10 All-In-One Media Center (MSRP $549.95) is a single-zone unit with all systems integrated into a single frame. Sharing the same full-color display and Bluetooth capabilities as the KMC20, this unit provides two sets of RCA outputs, as well as an auxiliary RCA input and USB connection. It is also compatible with the KRC15 Remote.

Both units’ weather-band priority system is a valuable KICKER safety feature. This defeatable system prompts the user with an alert to turn the receiver to the weather-band, regardless of the source that the media center is playing.  Additionally, a battery-monitoring system is also included on both, sounding an alert when the voltage drops below an acceptable threshold. This kind of foresight ensures that the vessel’s charging system always retains priority over the audio system.

The separately sold KRC15 Remote (MSRP $149.95) is mountable anywhere a boater needs control of the entertainment source.

KICKER has plans to display at several major off-road and motorcycle shows in 2016, and recently hired Powersports Manager Bryan Grace will be touring the country. The tour is meant to show consumers that KICKER believes its Powersports audio gear belongs in every vehicle made for the road, the trail or the desert.

Grace will be driving the 2013 KICKER Ram® Quad Cab that makes a statement with its custom black-and-yellow wrap and VSS™ (Vehicle-Specific Solutions) audio system, which is perfect for any toy-hauling truck. The tour began last week at King of the Hammers in Lucerne Valley, Calif.

“KICKER translates to more than just ‘Powersports’ to a Powersports consumer,” Grace said. “Even though they’re playing or racing on a motorcycle, ATV or UTV, it’s being towed with a truck. On those long trips, they need some great music during the ride. We will show them how the VSS system sounds, in a truck just like theirs.”

The KICKER VSS SubStage™ system is made up of three essential components:  a 200-watt monoblock amplifier, wiring harnesses and a 10-inch subwoofer. All three elements have been customized to integrate seamlessly with the vehicle, utilizing factory plugs and mounting points while working with the factory radio and speakers. In the VSS PowerStage™ system, power increases to 50 watts-per-channel, and an additional multi-channel amplifier’s digital signal processor is optimized specifically for the truck make and model of choice. 

KICKER’s Lifestyle product will be playing on the Powersports tour as well.  It will include the KICKER Amphitheater Speaker System, KPw2 Bluetooth Speaker and KICKER Vapor and Tabor wireless headphones.

“We can also let them experience our earbuds and headphones while they’re waiting for their turn on the trail,” said Grace, “and the Amphitheater will be on when we’re all together around the campfire.”

KICKER Performance Audio announces that Q-Class interactive displays featuring KICKER L7 Subwoofers, QS-Series Components and IQ-Series Amplifiers are shipping nationwide, and Authorized Q-Class Dealers are already receiving them. These displays are built to educate and entertain consumers across the country.

KICKER has engineered an experience as entertaining as it is informative – a display not only active, but interactive. KICKER Q-Class amplifiers, subwoofers and separates are included in the towering seven-foot display which boasts 1,500 watts of RMS power. It also features a large LCD screen with interactive videos directly linked to buttons on the board.

Kip Litsey is the Associate Marketing Director of Business-to-Business for KICKER and the primary architect of the interactive displays.

“It’s hard to give an accurate, presentable demo because you don’t always know what source you’re starting with,” Litsey said. “We use an uncompressed ‘.wav’ file, and with no head unit in the system, so you know you’re always getting the same experience every single time. If someone wants to use their own music in the display, we include the (KICKER) IQI™ module (a Bluetooth® accessory to KICKER IQ-Series Amplifiers) to pair a phone or tablet and stream their own music.”

Through market research and retailer feedback, KICKER recognized that salesmen and consumers alike often found themselves a victim of inconsistent displays. Whether it’s from altered audio settings, inconsistent volume levels or a lack of relevant on-hand information, the negative experience seemed as undesirable as it was avoidable.

The display’s system prompts the user to select from several different styles of high-resolution music stored within. The user’s selection and the next available song is then displayed on-screen. While videos are playing, a side window on the LCD screen shows relevant “factoids” about the product being displayed, all in high definition. A button press changes the show completely, allowing the viewer to experience several consumer-friendly training videos.

The display is equipped with an IQ1000.1 Mono Amplifier powering a pair of 12-inch L7 Subwoofers for bass. It also includes an IQ500.4 Four-Channel Amplifier, powering two sets of QS-Series 6-3/4-inch component speakers.

To adjust the sound quality, the display also includes the KICKER IQRC Remote, which comes standard with Q-Class mono amplifiers. The remote allows the user to adjust both amplifier levels and equalizer settings.

When not in active use, the display also acts as a “silent salesman” running Q-Class demo videos non-stop and inviting the customer to press the “Demo” button. The entire production is fully interactive with KICKER TWEEQ software, a standard feature of IQ-Series Amplifiers. It can be accessed via USB or Bluetooth, making for an easy demonstration of the system’s full potential.

Craig McGinnis of Metro Audio Dynamics in Omaha, Neb., was one of the first to receive the selling tool.

“Our sales guys think it’s great,” McGinnis stated. “What they love the most are the actual informational videos on it. Instead of wondering about the difference between the old (Solo-Baric®) L7 and the new Q-Class L7, we just pull up that video and boom – there it is. They watch that video and know why the new one is a way better woofer.

“That display is the statement piece for that section of the store. We’re selling more KICKER than anything else right now. We have it right in the front as you walk in, so customers immediately see this huge blue display. People go over there and start playing with it, so it works perfectly for us.”

The Q-Class display is currently in 100 dealers’ stores nationwide, and is available for order from KICKER Sales Representatives or Regional Coordinators at the factory. A sister display for KICKER’s Marine line is also available.

STILLWATER, USA – KICKER® announced the availability of the EB400 Bluetooth® compatible earphone, the follow-up to its highly successful EB300 Bluetooth Earbuds, adding “waterproof” to the long list of benefits that made it one of KICKER’s most successful earphones to date. The EB400 Earbuds debuted at Outdoor Retailer Summer Market in July and is now available to consumers at www.kicker.com, or at authorized KICKER dealers.

The EB400 (MSRP:  $99.95) is IPx7-rated, meaning it will withstand long periods of sweat, rain and snow without affecting performance or build quality.

“The EB400 epitomizes our commitment to designing products that complement an active lifestyle and live up to our reputation as a leader in lifestyle audio,” said Jeremy Bale, Brand Manager for KICKER lifestyle products. “With this model, our design specialists created an earphone that sounds demonstrably better than other products in its price class. The EB400 is the ultimate blend of sonic output from a compact design that is resilient enough to last for years, and with an aesthetic that is comfortable and visually appealing.”

Similar to its previously available counterpart, the EB400 is compatible with any audio player, smartphone or tablet that is Bluetooth-enabled. Its ergonomic design ensures that it will stay in place regardless of activity, while remaining easy to use and comfortable to wear. Also included is a built-in microphone for hands-free telephone calls, and it is packaged with three silicone tips for optimal comfort and noise isolation.

Added Bale, “Our ‘made-for-sharing’ ethos is front and center in the EB400. Comfort, quality, and long-term reliability make it a natural for any activity, whether it’s part of a group or going for a walk or run with a partner. It holds true to the strength and reliability KICKER customers expect from our products.”

2/29/2016 – KICKER has announced the immediate availability of both the new-for-2016 CompR® and CompRT™ Subwoofer lines. The subwoofers are available for consumer purchase at Authorized KICKER Dealers nationwide, both in-store and online.

Both were unveiled during CES in January. The slim CompRT Subwoofer is available in 6.75, 8, 10 and 12-inch versions with dual voice coils (1 or 2 Ohm), and it retails from $179.95 to $249.95. The rugged CompR is available in 8, 10, 12 and 15-inch models with dual voice coils (2 or 4 Ohm), retailing from $149.95 to $299.95.

The thin-mount CompRT features an effective magnet structure designed for superior power handling and sound quality. The 2016 innovations allow the CompRT Subwoofer to deliver bass levels normally associated with traditional subwoofers and large, cumbersome enclosures. Weatherproof and less than four inches deep, the CompRT is ideal for trucks, motorcycles, UTVs, and anything off-road – anywhere that requires big bass without a big box.

The legendary CompR features a new stacked magnet structure for enormous power handling and sensational sound quality. The subwoofer also features a striking, red double-stitched surround and polypropylene SoloKon™ cone system, engineered to maintain a superior level of volume and musical accuracy while delivering reliable performance everyone can enjoy.

Stillwater Designs, the manufacturer of KICKER Audio products, has named Lori Boyer and Matt Matheson as Regional Sales Managers, effective July 7.  Boyer and Matheson will split duties in what was previously KICKER’s East Region, with Boyer managing the southern and central portions and Matheson managing the northeastern section.

“One of the best parts of my job is promoting deserving talent from within,” said Rob Limbaugh, KICKER Vice President of Business Development. “Lori and Matt will prove to be powerful additions to the KICKER Sales department.”

Boyer will manage a region which will include KICKER Sales-Representative firms Tree and Associates (Chicago, Ill.), TR Sales (Ind., Ky.), Tech Marketing (Tenn., N.C., S.C., Ga., Ala.), and Dynamic Sales and Marketing (Fla.). Matheson will manage a region which includes North Peak Sales (Mich., Ohio), Innovative Marketing (upstate N.Y.), Trent Partners and Associates (metro N.Y., New England), and Opus Marketing (Mid-Atlantic).

Boyer and Matheson have each been integral parts of their respective departments at Stillwater Designs. Boyer has worked in several roles in her 27 years at the company, which includes experience in payroll and auditing, sales and marketing, technical support, and most recently managing Customer Service, Tech Support and Claims for the past 16 years.

“I am excited to take all the knowledge and experience I’ve gained (in 27 years), and use it to make a difference on the KICKER Sales staff,” Boyer said.

In his seven years with Stillwater Designs, Matheson has been vital to the development and marketing of KICKER’s integration products and resulting relationships, including hands-on work with the Vehicle-Specific Solutions (VSS™) line.

“There is already a great team in place, and I look forward to being a part of it,” Matheson said.

April 5, 2016, STILLWATER, USA – KICKER® will be among manufacturers conducting dealer trainings at this year’s Spring KnowledgeFest, April 8-10 at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis.  KICKER will also be displaying from the show floor in Booth 202, featuring several exciting technologies including its premium Q-Class line of speakers and amplifiers, VSS™ (Vehicle-Specific Solutions), and marine-audio gear.

The KICKER Training Staff is scheduled to conduct a one-hour seminar both Friday and Saturday beginning at 4:15 p.m. each day in Room 103. Subjects for the seminars will be KICKER Q-Class and Marine products.

“We feel a commitment to the core demographic,” said Kevin Campbell, KICKER Director of Marketing. “Car-audio specialists deserve appreciation and respect for helping us build this brand. We are still totally rabid about audio, and want to bring them the best examples of what we can do. That’s why it is important to show them the top shelf in 12-volt, marine and powersports.”

In addition to the popular Q-Class and Marine interactive displays for dealers, KICKER will have a pair of show cars at KnowledgeFest. A 2012 Ford® F-150 equipped with a VSS PowerStage™ system will be in the front of the Convention Center.  To show VSS effectiveness, the F-150 is equipped with a simple 3-way demo switch for playing the factory system on its own, the factory system with the VSS SubStage™ upgrade, or the full VSS PowerStage system with DSP amplifier and powered sub. Members of both KICKER and Davis Distribution will be offering demos of the truck throughout KnowledgeFest.

KICKER Performance Audio is excited to announce new gear, awesome displays and celebrity signings at the 2015 SEMA Show. KICKER will be located in the North Hall, booth number 11861.

The KICKER booth will display show vehicles of several genres as well as new product releases. The 42-year-old audio company will feature the Goodguys Rod Association Custom-of-the-Year, a 1956 Continental Mark II with a full KICKER Q-Class audio system.  Also showcased will be Big Homie Customs’ (Las Vegas, Nev.) latest bike build – a Harley-Davidson Road Glide packed with KICKER PX-Series Amplifiers, subwoofers and more.

More highlights:

-       KICKER VSS (Vehicle-Specific Solutions) Factory Upgrades will be represented in the booth by a 2015 Chevy Colorado demonstrator equipped with a full PowerStage audio system. VSS allows sedans and trucks to significantly upgrade a factory audio system without changing the factory speakers or radio. Both VSS PowerStage and SubStage Upgrades come complete with amplification, custom bracketry and pre-terminated wiring, cut to the exact length needed for the vehicle.

-       In addition to the bike build from Big Homie Customs, KICKER’s Powersports line of PX-Series Amplifiers, PS-Series Speakers and thin-mount CompRT® Subwoofers will be shown.  When it comes to audio gear for motorcycles, KICKER knows that its Powersports offerings should be lightweight, loud and draw very little current. KICKER seeks to show how those products sound great while wearing a helmet, and how they stand up to the elements.

-       KICKER’s Q-Class of amplifiers, speakers, subwoofers and processors will also be on display.  Flagship IQ-Series Amplifiers marry the efficiency of Class D with TWEEQ processing – the most advanced tuning software in the industry, along with CompQ and L7 square subwoofers that deliver a level of volume, accuracy and detail normally reserved for significantly more expensive subwoofers.

-       The KICKER Marine line will feature KM-Series Coaxial Speakers and Subwoofers with new chrome LED grilles for fun and excitement on the water, along with brand-new sizes and colors of Empty Tower Enclosures to house the drivers.

During the Show Wednesday and Thursday from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., Discovery Channel’s Street Outlaws will make appearances in the booth and sign autographs.  Available will be Big Chief, Murder Nova, Chuck, Monza, Daddy Dave and Kamikaze.

7/18/2016, STILLWATER, USA – KICKER® Lifestyle Products debuted its new portable audio powerhouse, the waterproof KICKER Bullfrog Jump.

The device is a self-contained, high-performance 2.1-channel audio system featuring two 4-inch drivers and two 3-inch x 4 passive subwoofers housed in a near-impenetrable cabinet that is specifically voiced to sound great inside and even better outdoors, from tailgate parties, the campsite in the yard, on a boat, and anywhere else music and fun are welcome. Available in two color options – green/black and gray/white -- Bullfrog looks as good as it sounds.

“Bullfrog Jump is, quite simply, the embodiment of KICKER’s 43-year history as a leader in audio engineering, wrapped up in one of the most intelligently designed packages on the market,” said Jeremy Bale, KICKER Lifestyle Products’ Brand Manager. “Our design team set out to make this more than our top-of-the-line streaming speaker. From the start, our goal was to create the ultimate audio system for anybody who feels that music is as essential as food and water for their outdoor gatherings.”

Similar to its namesake, KICKER’s Bullfrog Jump, which is the first in a line of high-output Bullfrog speakers, creates a sound that is deep and resonant, with a sense of authority and a call to join the fun. Bullfrog streams Bluetooth® stereo audio, and it includes FM radio for when it is time to listen to the big game and favorite local stations.

As powerful as Bullfrog Jump is on its own, KICKER added the DoubleKick feature providing an easy daisy-chain option for two Bullfrogs via Bluetooth. Similarly, its 3.5mm TRS stereo auxiliary output allows for daisy-chaining multiple Bullfrog systems to accommodate any listening scenario. A 3.5mm input jack is also available for connecting a portable audio player when Bluetooth isn’t available.

The speaker’s sonics are big and detailed, with KICKER’s signature bass and full-range output. Bullfrog fills the backyard, basecamp and the parking lot with a 360-degree sound field that that reaches around the listening area to give everyone the best seat in the house. Its IP66 rating means that it can stand up to nearly any type of weather conditions for as long as the party might last.

Bullfrog’s rechargeable battery lasts up to 20 hours, with average listening, and there is a dedicated USB charge-out port to ensure that mobile devices have the energy to keep up with such a powerful system. An easy-carry handle makes it convenient to bring Bullfrog Jump wherever the party happens to be.

KICKER Connect App:  Making the Best Streaming Speaker Even Easier to Control

KICKER is complementing the rollout of the Bullfrog with a new app that makes it easy for users to tailor the audio to their liking. KICKER Connect puts access to the Bullfrog Jump on any iOS or Android streaming device, with easy and intuitive control of the FM radio (including custom presets), volume, status monitor, factory reset, a searchable user guide, and wireless stereo-mode setup for connecting two Bullfrog speakers via Bluetooth.

Added Bale, “Bullfrog joins the ever-growing ranks of KICKER Lifestyle products by taking its rightful place at the top of the heap. Not only is it our best, no compromises speaker to date; it easily beats the competition on every level, from performance to convenience and reliability. There is no better way to bring the music than with this powerful new system.”

KICKER’s Bullfrog Jump will ship in September at a suggested retail price of $399.95.

 

 

KICKER Performance Audio has developed a factory-audio integration upgrade for the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado and 2015 GMC Canyon pickup trucks. The KICKER Vehicle-Specific Solutions (VSS) upgrades for Colorado and Canyon seek to deliver outstanding sound without cutting a single wire or taping additional holes. The systems will be available to Authorized KICKER Dealers beginning this month.

The VSS systems are made of three essential components:  a multi-channel amplifier with digital signal processing (DSP), wiring harnesses and powered subwoofer. All three elements have been customized to integrate seamlessly with the vehicle, utilizing factory plugs and mounting points.

Using a custom mounting bracket in the VSS PowerStage upgrade, the multi-channel amplifier is designed to integrate seamlessly with the factory radio and speaker system. Power increases to 50 watts per channel, and the amplifier’s DSP is optimized specifically for the Colorado/Canyon.

The VSS SubStage upgrade comes with an amplified subwoofer and enclosure, which is also included in the PowerStage upgrade. Built specifically for the vehicle, the enclosure is contoured to the vehicle, fitting underneath the back bench without altering the appearance of the truck, or causing removal of the spare-tire tools. An 8-inch subwoofer and integrated 200-watt amplifier provide plenty of bass without the obtrusiveness of a traditional subwoofer box.

Thanks to the pre-cut, pre-terminated wiring harnesses, VSS installations are among the easiest in the industry. The included harnesses are insulated and sheathed in a custom wire loom, and include all battery, subwoofer, radio and amplifier connections.

The KICKER booth at the 2015 SEMA Show will showcase a Chevy Colorado equipped with the VSS PowerStage upgrade. KICKER will be located in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center, booth #11861. An additional VSS Colorado/Canyon upgrade (model number PCOCRE15) will be featured in the SEMA Show New Product Showcase.

KICKER VSS is made in the USA from both domestic and foreign parts.
