Kicker Car Amplifiers: A History of Raising Car Audio Performance

In 1980, Steve Irby, who is still the head of brand owners Stillwater Design today, developed the first original Kicker – the first full-range speaker box set designed solely for the car. Steve Irby had a dream to make car audio systems like no other – to make car audio systems high performance, loud and powerful.

 

Stillwater Design, the facilitator of the Kicker brand, released their first full range speaker in 1980. It incorporated a woofer, mid-range speaker and a tweeter, in order to reach all possible notes, from high and mid to bass/low. It gave a more accurate reproduction of sound in the car, which had up until then solely been available in home stereo systems. Kicker had changed the history of the car audio system, making it possible to have high quality sound and vastly ranging notes in the car.

 

Early Beginnings

In 1973, Stillwater Design appeared on the audio manufacturing scene. The two-person operation started out by building sound and musical instrument speakers for small events in churches, auditoriums and entertainers. After their breakthrough with the first ever Kicker speaker, the company turned its head to the mobile-audio market and began to create, develop and manufacture the powerful and high performance car audio components that we know so well today.

In 1986, Kicker expanded their range to high performance woofers. They discovered that a subwoofer by itself could generate the intense bass that was beginning to get very popular with music fans.  Only a few years later, in 1993, they released their first powerful amplifier, which would power their highly performance speakers and woofers.

 

The 1990's and Beyond

Kicker then branched out beyond cars and into marina audio equipment for boats. They designed water and weather proof systems that could take the brutal conditions of the sea, rivers and canals. The system is especially designed so that it does not interfere with the navigation system, does not rust or damage in the sun.

 

Kicker has in the last few years began to make high performance home audio systems, including stereos and i-Pod/Zune stereo systems. Extending its range further and further, Kicker contributed to audio systems in the car, boat and home, ultimate power and performance.

Amplifier $140.19 Generally, an amplifier or simply amp, is any device that changes, usually increases, the amplitude of a signal. The relationship of the input to the output of an amplifierusually expressed as a function of the input frequencyis called the transfer function of the amplifier, and the magnitude of the transfer function is termed the gain. In popular use, the term usually describes an electronic amplifier, in which the input signal is usually voltage or current. In audio applications, amplifiers operate loudspeakers used in PA systems to make the human voice louder or play recorded music. Amplifiers may be classified according to the input (source) they are designed to amplify (such as a guitar amplifier, to perform with an electric guitar), the device they are intended to drive (such as a headphone amplifier), the frequency range of the signals (Audio, IF, RF, and VHF amplifiers, for example), whether they invert the signal (inverting amplifiers and noninverting amplifiers), or the type of device used in the amplification (valve or tube amplifiers, FET amplifiers, etc.).
