Press Release Second Skin, which was started in 2002 by Anthony Collova, was recently sold to an individual buyer.

This Tricks of the Trade is about the sub/amp install in a Honda Element. This vehicle served as one of Alpine's show vehicles a while back.

This is a good example of […]
Budget woofers are great, big bass for small bucks. But if you can afford a little more, you can get that much more performance and musicality for your car audio system.
