CES 2016 Las Vegas NV

Not a ton of new/innovative mobile/marine 12V audio this year, but a few.

Cerwin Vega has really expanded their marine/powersports offerings. 6.5 and 8 in pro audio HLCD and coax tower pods, single and double firing. They also offer pods with a passive radiator for improved near-field mid-bass. The double firing speakers are on separate circuits and they also offer LEDs.

They also offer a universal blue tooth (same BT as the JL unit) and blue media center.

Marine amps too.



Metra is also packaging the same BT and Media center. They are also offering marine USB charging hubs and a bunch of waterproof and submersible LED pods and bars in both white and black.

Kicker has expanded their power sports PX line of amps with a new 100.2 with integrated BT, stereo ouput for system expansion, supports a remote and has USB charging.



Chrome grills for the speakers and subs as well as a square marine LED grill for the solo series woofers. Big woofer boom and maintain your marine speaker look.



The KMC10 source unit is out so we hope the KMC20 source unit is not far behind.



Black and white 8" pods for the KM8



Double 6.5" pods also in white with optional chrome grill

I like those KM8 speakers, and Bluetooth would be a nice upgrade one day.

Universal BT that will plug up to most any head-unit, can be had for a pretty fair price.

So what are the white 8" with pods gonna cost per pair?

Retail for the pods is $350 p/pair and the KM8LCW are $230 p/pair. The pods come with a few sizing inserts to fit standard tower tube sizes. The KM8 comes standard with the RGB LEDS, charcoal and white grills. The pods have a pass through that will accommodate the LEDs wire. We have also drilled out the center of the clamp so the wires are all hidden.

Im really impressed with the finish of the white pods. Again, those prices are MAP right off Kicker's site, just keep that in mind.
