Listen Up! Some Thoughts on Counterproductive Car Audio Marketing

I’ve been a magazine guy for more than 35 years. I used to read four car audio and six car magazines every month.

Test Drive Review: ARC Audio ARC 1000.4 4-Channel Amp & IPS 8.8 DSP

Looking at the specifications and features of an amplifier rarely tells the entire story.
