SXS · UTV · SLINGSHOT

Wind, engine, open cabin—if you want music over all that, we build for it.

A Slingshot cruising the street, a SXS on the trail and a show machine do not need the same audio system. Tell us how you use it and how loud it needs to stay once it is moving. We build the speaker placement, amplification, electrical support, weather protection, DSP and fabrication around that environment.

WHAT DO YOU WANT IT TO DO?

Clean daily audio and a full custom open-air build are not the same job.

DailyJust want it to sound better?Upgrade the useful speaker locations without overbuilding the machine.Simple improvement
Loud & ClearNeed it to stay with you at speed?Efficient drivers, aiming and amplifier headroom help the system stay present over wind, engine and exhaust noise.Open-air output
Bass / DSPWant more low end without the rest of the system getting messy?Subwoofer packaging, crossover, phase, routing and electrical demand get handled together.Control the system
Full CustomWant the machine to look as built as it sounds?Speaker mounting, racks, electrical, custom parts, acrylic and lighting can all be designed as one project.Go all the way

AT SPEED

The machine gets louder around you. Your audio system has to work harder.

  • Wind, engine, exhaust, tire and trail noise cover detail as speed increases.
  • Outdoor play does not get the same bass reinforcement as a closed cabin.
  • Aiming decides whether useful output reaches the riders.
  • Water, dust, mud, UV, washing and corrosion change product and wiring choices.
  • The battery, stator or alternator must support audio plus lights, winches and accessories.
  • Vibration and chassis movement require secure mounting, strain relief and protected wiring.
BUILD IT IN THE RIGHT ORDER

How you use the machine decides the speaker, power and protection plan.

  1. 01Tell us what the machine does.

    Year/model, normal speed, current equipment, exposure and how loud it needs to play.

  2. 02Find locations that actually help.

    Depth, grille clearance, aiming, weather rating and crossover range matter more than raw driver count.

  3. 03Set the power budget.

    Battery condition, charging output, accessory load, cable, fusing and amplifier current are checked together.

  4. 04Mount, protect and tune it.

    Then crossover, level, EQ, phase and delay are set for the finished machine.

NEXT STEP

Tell us what the machine is fighting against—and how loud you want the music to stay.

Include year/model, charging information if known, source, speakers and amplifiers, riding conditions, weather/wash exposure and accessory load.
