Today was “Take A Kid To Work Day”. Actually, it was “Take Your Kid to Work Day,” but since I don’t have a kid, I borrowed one! Garrett Hall is my cousin’s son. He is 14 years old, over 6 foot tall and very personable and polite. It was right up his alley to spend a day working at the car stereo shop.

We started out the day running errands and installing a volume control at a theater customer’s house. We sent out a large mailing at the local post office and stopped at the hardware store for supplies. We got to the store and Garrett was busy manning the phones. He changed our sign out front and helped out in the install bay.. Well, he observed in the install bay.

Overall, we had a great day and I think that he left the shop with a little bit of a perspective on how the “real world” functions.

At Mobile Edge, we use Dynamat Xtreme in nearly all of our installations. Sound deadening is one of the easiest and least expensive ways to make a huge improvement in your sound.

According to Dynamic Control’s (the makers of Dynamat) website, “Dynamat Xtreme is a patented, lightweight elastomeric butyl and aluminum constrained-layer vibrational damper.” That’s a mouthful! In English, It is a Butyl material with and aluminum backing. It’s purpose is to reduce vibrations and rattling.

Any object has a frequency at which it will naturally vibrate at. Take a door panel for example. When it is exposed to this “resonant frequency,” it too will vibrate. When you attach speakers to a metal door panel, for example, they will cause the door panel to vibrate. The louder the speakers play, the more serious the vibration.

Mobile Edge is happy to offer Brand Source Financing to our growing list of customer friendly offerings!  From today on, you will always be able to pay for your purchase at least 3 months from now.  But at certain times of the year, we will be able to offer 12 month financing!  This means that you can get your Nav system, video screens, remote starter, window tinting, etc, right now and enjoy it for up to a year before your need to pay for it.

We work hard to get everyone that applies financed.   Of course, we cannot promise this, but we will do everything within our power to make sure that you get what you want, when you want it!

That is our commitment to you, our customer.

It might sound good, but it is far from great!

I’ve been involved in car audio since 1992 and I have to say, factory systems have definitely improved. Long gone are the days of the 3.5″ dash speakers in the GM or Dodge. Many systems are “amplified” and some even have iPod capabilities. Today’s factory radios sound pretty good, but I have never heard one that I felt couldn’t sound a whole lot better.

I think that many customers also realize that their systems could sound better. Problem is, the car manufacturers are making it very difficult to replace the factory radio. Integrated diagnostics, data connectivity, and the actual fit of the radio are big hurdles to overcome.
