The Punch Pro V2 family from Rockford Fosgate is a set of high-efficiency midranges, tweeters and a matching passive crossover built for systems that have to play at very high volume.

Here’s Why Vehicle Safety Upgrades Should Include LED Lighting

It's a little after 9 o'clock, the rain has settled into a steady drizzle and the wind keeps pushing water across the windshield.

Will Aftermarket Upgrades Void My New Vehicle Warranty?

You signed the paperwork on a new vehicle, and when the salesperson handed over the second key, he volunteered that adding a stereo or a remote starter would void the factory warranty. Nobody asked. A week later, shopping for speakers that don't sound like a transistor radio, you remember the warning and shelve the project. That warning is one of the most persistent myths in Read more

Five Reasons to Purchase Dash Cameras From a Qualified Retailer

You get rear-ended at a light. You reach for your phone to pull the clip, and the camera has been dead for three months because the memory card had become corrupted and nobody warned you that could happen. Or a hit-and-run in a mall parking lot leaves a dent and no footage at all because the camera was plugged into a lighter socket that shuts off with the ignition. Cameras are Read more

Can I Fix My Audio Problem By Replacing the Speakers?

The stereo in your car sounds harsh at highway speed, the bass turns to mush when you turn it up, and the obvious fix seems to be a set of better speakers. Sound familiar? Sometimes that really is the answer. Just as often, the speakers are the one part of the system that isn't the problem. The honest answer to the question in the title is "it depends on what's wrong," and Read more

Add Apple CarPlay to Your Older BMW Without Losing iDrive

Talk to someone who has owned a BMW for ten years and you will rarely hear complaints about the car itself. The engine still pulls the way it did on the test drive.
