STILLWATER, OK (01.19.24) – KICKER Vice President of Research and Development Bob Spencer announced his retirement recently, following 41 years of employment for Stillwater Designs and Audio, Inc. As one of KICKER’s original employees, Spencer remarked he is now looking forward to spending time with his family and pursuing personal interests.
“Bob is an intuitive and talented manager who leads from his own wealth of hands-on experience and knowledge,” said KICKER founder and President Steve Irby. “He has been a key in nurturing and maintaining our major vendor relationships through R&D for decades.”
The company veteran was among the first KICKER employees ever, soon after the brand originated in the early 1980s.
“I was a musician and knew Steve through the local music scene,” recalled Spencer.
His friendship with the KICKER founder evolved into a working relationship in 1982, with Spencer building the original KICKER enclosures by hand. These same full-range boxes would prove to be the beginning of the car-audio enclosure market. Over the next half decade, the company expanded to 80 employees and more than a dozen SKUs. Spencer oversaw the staff, managed production, and created the sales forecasts.
Bob Spencer and Steve Irby (L) pictured during Bob’s retirement get together at KICKER HQ in Stillwater OK.
In the late 80s, cabinet assembly evolved into raw speaker and amplifier production. As KICKER’s product line grew, so did Spencer’s responsibilities as he was promoted from Project Manager to Director of Research and Development. During his tenure, KICKER has become one of the most well-known car-audio manufacturers in the world.
“He loved working with people that are passionate about music,” Irby reflected. “He plays many different instruments, so being a musician myself, we connected on that level. Bob loved putting a band together with the best players, which was his approach to building our R&D department.”
Going forward, Spencer’s responsibilities will be split between KICKER veterans Chanc Bergbower (nearly 25 years at KICKER) and Joe Hobart (17 years). Bergbower assumes the role of Director of R&D/Acoustics, while Hobart has been promoted to Product Line Manager – Electronics.
TEMPE, AZ (01.19.24) – Mobile Solutions, a leader in creating the tools and training needed for custom automotive electronics, audio, and interior installations, is proud to announce that renowned engraver Hank Robinson will be showcasing his artistry during the upcoming 2024 MasterTech Expo, scheduled for March 3-6 at the Mesa Convention Center in Mesa, Ariz.
On March 4 at the Rockford Fosgate booth (#300), Robinson will showcase his skills by engraving a Rockford Fosgate amplifier heatsink. In addition, he will honor each member of the Build-Off Teams by presenting them with an individually customized, engraved amplifier, each reflecting a distinct theme.
“It is our privilege to welcome Mr. Robinson to the MasterTech Expo, a testament to his unparalleled expertise and unrivaled talent,” said Bryan Schmitt, Mobile Solutions founder/CEO/president. “In addition, Rockford Fosgate’s commitment to the advancement of industry standards and their role in setting new trends in cultivating the Build-Off Teams is truly next-level. We invite attendees to experience a one-of-a-kind opportunity.”
Robinson, who served as an infantryman in the United States Army, discovered his innate talent for multi-material engraving and consequently established Hanro Studios in 2012. He has attained international recognition for his bespoke art, a success attributable to his commitment to innovation, trendsetting, and personalization in design. Before affiliating with Monster Energy and Foredom Electric as their official engraver, Robinson dedicated a decade of service to the United States Army, with deployments in Kosovo, Iraq, and Afghanistan. His distinguished military career is marked by several accolades, including the Combat Infantryman’s Badge, the Bronze Star with Valor and two Oak Leaf Clusters, and the Army Commendation Medal with Valor and two Oak Leaf Clusters. Robinson enjoys devoting his leisure time to his family, consisting of his wife and three children.
“Hank Robinson is not only immensely talented in his art, he is also a hero,” said Zach Luke, Rockford managing director. “We are incredibly proud to host him at our booth during MasterTech and have him work his artistry on our amplifiers.”
Added Robinson on his talent and drive, “It is my mission to provide individuals with bespoke engravings that enhance various facets of their lives.”
The 2024 MasterTech Expo is scheduled for March 3-6 at the Mesa Convention Center in Mesa, Ariz. To learn more and register for the event of the year, please visit www.MasterTechExpo.com.

John Velez, related, “This new product is our most high quality, full featured and easy to use equalizer yet! The EQ5XP is the full system solution when it comes to balancing frequencies for the entire system quickly and at the user’s fingertips. All in a simple and compact set-up.”
John Velez is pictured in the Massive Audio warehouse showcasing the new EQ5XP equalizer. The KnowledgeFest booth backdrop is shown behind Velez in this image.
