Stillwater Designs, Inc. - KICKER
In 1980, KICKER 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 that first KICKER, Livin’ Loud® has always been the KICKER way - staying one step ahead of the pack, driven to create components that consistently raise the world's expectations for stereo performance. As a continually evolving brand, KICKER reaches new heights in 2008 with the development of its first home audio product – digital stereo systems specifically for iPod® and Zune™ media players. As it has striven for excellence on the road the past quarter-century, KICKER will work to become a future driving force under the roof as well. KICKER 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 car audio market, applying the same research and design skills that made its first product so successful to the development of a complete line of high-performance components for car audio. What was once a company with two employees in a single-car garage is now a corporation with 220-plus employees in facilities totaling more than a quarter-million square feet.
