OXNARD, CA (10.22.2019) – SSV Works will feature a new universal cage pod speaker enclosure for 8-inch midrange powersports speakers during SEMA Show 2019, held in Las Vegas, Nev. from Nov. 5-8 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, booth S38011. The US2-C8U is now available with an MSRP of $349.99.
“Get bigger sound in a smaller space by adding 8-inch speakers to your UTV’s cage,” explained Trevor Kaplan, SSV Works CEO. “These enclosures were specifically designed to match the design of your UTV, and compact to not block the driver’s visibility. ”
Kaplan continued, “Most competitor cage pods offered in the market today are repurposed boat enclosures finished in high gloss white or black to resemble other parts of a boat’s aesthetics. That approach does not translate well for UTV customers as most parts in the UTV are in a matte black or textured black plastic finish. The US2-C8U are finished in a proprietary blend of black ASA plastic and stylized to match UTV interior shapes and textures. Our new 8-inch pods are available unloaded or loaded with a Kicker 8-inch marine speaker to complement our powersports audio kits.”
The dual clamping system allows for 360-degree rotation while on the cage. Unlike other cage pods where you need to find its position before being mounted, the US2-C8U can be installed and adjusted while on the vehicle, thus reducing frustration and installation time. Kit includes stainless mounting hardware and weatherproof harnessing.

HAYWARD, CA (10.18.2019) – Expanding Earthquake’s line of audio problem-solving products; the new GLI-200 and ISO-200 are the leading ground loop isolators and signal converter on the market. The standard A/V receiver output is 600Ω yet most ground loop isolators on the market today have 200Ω at best. When using these substandard products, your A/V receiver has to deliver 3X more current and or compromise the output level.
The new GLI and ISO 200 come with an impedance of 600Ω right out of the box matching that of the industry standard. Unlike other products on the market, the GLI and ISO are constructed with high-quality components and will not roll-off the low frequency response due to undersized transformers resulting in poor performance. They were designed to kill off annoying buzz noise or ground loop that will allow your audio system to perform at its very best.
The ISO-200 is unique because it not only serves as a ground loop isolator, but it is also a 2-way signal converter. It will convert an unbalanced consumer level RCA signal to a balanced professional level XLR signal and vice versa. This gives the installer more wiring options whether it be used for home, mobile, or pro sound applications.
The compact and rugged construction of the ISO and GLI 200 allow for them to fit into virtually any audio system, and can be mounted to any surface with their built-in mounting brackets. This will give you a cleaner looking install and be hidden out of sight. These products are also must-have tools of the trade for installers when diagnosing audio systems. When it comes to audio noise and hum issues, Earthquake Sound offers great problem-solving solutions for audio professionals and installers to the everyday home and car audio enthusiast.
