CONROE, TX (02.28.23) – KICKER was on site in Conroe and sponsored the Lone Star Throwdown (LST) for the sixth straight year, with its 83-foot rolling showroom – the XRV (Xtreme Recreational Vehicle). The XRV displayed the complete line of KICKER audio gear and houses the “Boom Room” with an entire wall full of 15-inch, Solo-Baric L7S subwoofers and 40,000 watts. The show was held Feb. 24-26 at the Lone Star Expo Center in Conroe, Texas.

The KICKER XRV set up for the event to get underway.

KICKER conducted two consumer contests simultaneously during the show as part of the brand’s marketing plan. One included a 1,200-watt bass package giveaway consisting of a pair of CompRT 10-inch subwoofers with a 1,200-watt mono amplifier. KICKER also also partner with MTI Acoustics to give away a pair of MTI’s new universal sub enclosures with new KICKER Competition Gold™ subwoofers pre-installed.

Three demo vehicles accompanied the XRV – all loaded with KICKER gear.

A pair of Solo-Baric L7T thin square subwoofers delivered the bass. In addition to the C1500, a 2002 Lightning and 1956 Chevy wagon were parked under the XRV’s awning.

Many on site registered for contests to win gear so their rides could be Livin’Loud with KICKER.
