OXNARD, CA (09.16.22) – SSV Works is proud to announce that it now offers Phase EQ™, an amplifier setting the new standard in UTV Audio. Now available, Phase EQ ships with most SSV Works amplified audio kits (MSRP is dependent on kit).
“The DSP technology in our new 800-Watt Phase EQ amp with Rock & Ride™ is the same that is found in luxury cars with premium audio systems,” explained Trevor Kaplan, SSV Works CEO. “The Rock & Ride switch maximizes the way your stereo sounds depending on what you’re doing…whether at camp or on the trail, you can change the pre-tuned DSP of your system with the push of a button. When you’re on either Rock or Ride, each setting comes pretuned specific to the stereo kit and vehicle it’s going in.”
Competitors only set the gains and a few other settings and call it “pretuned”, but they don’t take into account the differences in a UTV’s make and model that can affect audio output like SSV Works’ new Phase EQ solution does.
“For instance, if the amp comes in a RZR kit, the amp will be tuned down to the processing signal, differently than if it comes in a CanAm kit,” Kaplan explained. “This means no matter the ride, the audio is perfectly processed for the ultimate listening experience. Also, because of the way we process the audio, our 800-watt amplifier will outperform higher wattage amplifiers available on the market today.”
The UTV market is all about big power…and power consumption. Unlike other companies in the market, SSV Works’ audio systems are specifically designed for side-by-sides, and so you don’t need to upgrade to a dual-battery setup in order to utilize its full potential with SSV Works solutions. The SSV Works Phase EQ amplifier is also IP66-rated with complete dust and water protection, and with a higher rating than leading competitors, this is the ideal amp for your ride. There are no other systems on the market that can match its performance.
Rock & Ride: The patented switch comes with every Phase EQ amplifier. It fits in your standard rocker-switch location and allows you to switch between multiple audio profiles.
Back at camp? Hit ROCK to switch to a profile tuned for a more optimal sound from outside the vehicle. This provides the fullest sonic and most optimal sound while you’re cracking a cold one by the fire.
Ready to hit the trail? Select RIDE and the amp will process the audio to compensate for wind and engine noise, as well as boost the frequencies that would be lost from wearing your helmet, achieving the most energized listening experience in the cab while riding.
Additional features include:
Power: 50W x 4 @ 4ohm; 100W x 4 @ 2ohm; 400W x 1 @ 2ohm
2ohm Stable Channel
Channel 1/2 & 3/4 Bridgeable
Low Current Draw (60A max)
Rock n’ Ride Switch Included with Amp
“This is the healthiest UTV amp on the market, pulling just the right amount of power while allowing all additional power-hungry accessories to be added without draining the battery unnecessarily,” Kaplan concluded.

AUBURN HILLS, MI (09.14.22) – Alps Alpine North America, Inc. (“Alpine”) has launched its TIDAL integration available via a free software update. The compatible head units include the new Alpine Halo11 iLX-F511, the Alpine Halo9 iLX-F509, the iLX-507, and Jeep-specific radios i509-WRA-JK and i509-WRA-JL. Alpine is the first aftermarket car audio company with full TIDAL integration.
Music the Way the Artist Intended High-Resolution Audio is quickly becoming the new benchmark for music reproduction, and as the desire for high-fidelity playback becomes mainstream, many music artists are starting to release the “master” (uncompressed) studio recordings of their songs or albums.
Hi-Res Audio playback captures and reproduces the details that are lost in lower-quality, compressed file formats. These details, like the breath of the artist or subtle interactions with the instruments, contribute to a listening experience that was once previously exclusive to the “master” studio recordings, and in turn, allow the listener to experience music as the artist originally intended.
However, playback of Hi-Res music files or streaming is only made possible through audio sources that support the intended Hi-Res specification. Using trickle-down technology from Alpine’s new High-Res line; Ultra AlpineF#1Status (384kHz/64Bit) and Alpine Status System (192kHz/24Bit), Alpine’s new line of head units are able to reproduce music at the High-Res spec of 96kHz/24Bit.
Making Hi-Res Sound More Accessible From today, compatible Alpine head unit customers can access the high-res streaming experience with TIDAL, accessing its catalog of over 90 million songs. For TIDAL HiFi and HiFi Plus Members, they’ll get lossless audio and high-fidelity music options for superior sound quality that elevates the music experience. TIDAL Masters, delivered in partnership with Master Quality Authenticated (MQA), allows HiFi Plus Members to listen to music exactly as the artist intended the track to sound. With thousands of expertly curated playlists, customers will be able to listen to all genres and discover new artists via TIDAL Rising.
Customers can access select TIDAL features directly on the head unit, including My Mix, a personalized curation of sound based on listening history, expertly curated playlists and individualized daily listening insights. The TIDAL feature also has convenient access to music controls like Play/Pause, Repeat, Shuffle, Playing List, and Search, where listeners can browse through featured artists, genres, “moods,” and more.
To get started, the software update is free to download and can be found on the Alpine Knowledge Center (https://kb.alpine-usa.com). The TIDAL app is available on the App Store or Google Play. A TIDAL subscription is required and sold separately. To access TIDAL on the Alpine Head Unit, the head unit must be tethered to a mobile or smartphone hotspot. Data rates may apply.
LAS VEGAS, NV (09.14.22) – Kingpin University celebrated a high-value show presence at the latest KnowledgeFest exhibition and conference for the mobile electronics industry, held August 26-28, 2022 in Dallas. In addition to showcasing new product and hosting a series of training sessions on technical expertise and business growth, the company announced its fourth-quarter schedule for in-person, hands-on training at its Las Vegas campus.
Students attending the upcoming Next-Level Fabrication course on September 21 will have the unique experience of building a car destined for the show floor. Kingpin University’s award-winning Rat Rod, a 1928 Hudson Essex Super 6, will be featured in the Diamond Audio booth at the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show, November 1-4 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas. Students will assist with system design, panel architecture, enclosure fabrication and wiring. In addition, participating attendees will receive credit with their names on the builder board during the show.
Sales professionals and store personnel who want to better understand the sales process will benefit from the DNA of a Sales Pro class session, October 15-16. The class studies the traits and habits of successful sellers in different industries and applies them to the customer-focused duties of the mobile electronics professional. Instruction includes customer outreach through phone, email and social media, proven listening and qualifying tactics, selling high-margin accessories, online-to-in-store transition and more.
The Mastering the Motorcycle Market course is designed for stores that see the viability of specialty transportation as a profit center. The two-day session, October 29-30, spans the gamut of the category, from understanding the culture of the rider, specifics and limitations of motorcycle integration and popular enhancements, all the way to system design and fabrication.
Automated fabrication is becoming a larger component of the car audio facility workday, and the Master Laser Class – Hands-On with Robots, November 11-13, is intended to teach shops to use laser-cutting technology to its fullest effect. The session covers the components of a laser cutter, use of drawing software to create the cutting patterns, materials selection, safety measures, system maintenance and upgrades, and most important, the timesaving and style-enhancing benefits of laser precision.
“From talking with retailers and installers at KnowledgeFest, we’re seeing shops transition from the COVID / post-COVID boom to the normal market forces that impact retail seasonally,” said Jason Kranitz, principal instructor at Kingpin University. “Stores can maximize their time during the pre-holiday period with professional training specifically designed to add revenue-generating capability to every in-store professional. The four classes we’ve selected provide instruction on category opportunities, skills enhancement and improved efficiency. Like our KnowledgeFest experience, we are excited to share our insights with our peers and look forward to each teaching opportunity.”

ERIE, PA (09.13.22) – On Sunday, September 4th, Real Audio held the Grand Opening of the company’s new location on Edinboro Road in Erie, PA.
Kyle Kaulis related “Our Grand Opening at the new location was tremendous. Even though there was a mist in the air throughout the day we had a large turnout. Those who came had a chance to check out our new facility and spend time in the showroom seeing new products on display. In addition, we had a food truck for all to enjoy plus my Mother made desserts. People also checked out some crazy stereo builds. Davis Distribution had their Sony Jeep demo outside for all to check out along with some give aways.”
Kyle Kaulis cut the Grand Opening ribbon on Sunday surrounded by family and friends.
Attendees gathered around the sales counter in the showroom.
The new facility is 7400 sq ft and the large installation bay area has room for 9 vehicles plus 3 bikes. The large parking lot will be ideal for car shows and future events that Real Audio will host.
Real Audio opened in 2015 and today has a tight knit group of 6 employees including Rich Gruver, Chuck Snider, Jeremy Gross, DJ Rammelt Wes Barret, Reid Kaulis and Pedro along with Kyle Kaulis.
Kyle’s friend Jordan polishes the Davis Distribution Sony Jeep for demos.
Kaulis added “All of this came about fairly quickly. We had been working out of 2 locations…one being mostly for sales with same day installs and the other for longer-term custom installations. The building owner of the installation location wanted his building back. So we completed all of this in 2 weeks that would have normally taken probably 2 months. We still have fine tuning and showroom touches to complete. But we open and excited to be in our new location.”
Kyle is flanked by sons Ayden and Reid on the right.
Eye-catching signage and lighting gathers attention at night.
“We certainly thank our friends who traveled from out of town to attend our Grand Opening plus our staff, friends and family who contributed to the success of our Grand Opening” Kaulis concluded.
