In 1980, KICKER® Performance Audio invented the high-performance stereo enclosure market when company founder and president Steve Irby developed the Original KICKER®, the first full-range speaker box designed specifically for automotive use. From the day we put the power to the Original KICKER, Livin'​ Loud® has always been the KICKER way – staying one step ahead of the pack and driven to create products that consistently raise the world's expectations for audio performance. With the onset of the digital music age, KICKER went from the back seat and into portable media players and under the roof by launching into home and personal audio – incredible music reproduction across a wide volume range and legendary KICKER bass™ loaded into high-performance MP3 docking systems, noise-isolation earbuds and comfortable headphones. KICKER Performance Audio products are designed and manufactured by Stillwater Designs, headquartered in Stillwater, Oklahoma. The firm began in 1973 as a two-person operation, hand-building professional sound and musical instrument speaker systems for churches, auditoriums, and entertainers. Building upon the success of the Original KICKER, the company concentrated on the mobile-audio market, applying the same successful research and design skills to the development of a complete line of high-performance components for car audio. KICKER products are developed by a design team headed by Irby. This hands-on approach from the highest level of management, matched with an energetic workforce of talented individuals in all areas of the company's operations, and an innate ability to create truly musical components, has been the reason for the company's remarkable success. As audio continues to evolve, KICKER will continue to be on the industry's cutting edge, pushing the limits of audio design technology, performance, and integration in the quest for ultimate sound.
