This is from Dave Gumiennys' mouth "Anyone who thinks that Kicker is goin into walmart can **** OFF and they have no dick" He was here like 2 hrs ago doing some training and I told him about the mention of walmart on here and that's his exact reply as for Canadian Tire..... I forgot to ask....

Kicker does not have any plans to deal their product to Canadian Tire or Walmart.

However they have begun distribution to Circuit City. They have a contract clause that the product can not be d out. I think it's a good move and with all the advertising Circuit City blasts over the tv that sales will increase for me since Kicker is arguably one the most visually recognizable stereo products on the market today.

yeah man, no I just said it cause it was quite funny, and to hear those words from an inside man... priceless......

Who cares who sells it... kicker sucks either way... [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

(IMO)

just don't let Rob VO see this thread....he might write a page or two praising kicker. imo sqaure subs have potential to be good...but with the kicket name behind them....hehehhe....

I lost my most of my respect for them after they dropped the Kicker Competition group from their budget, like last year.

Oh, that hurts... [img]graemlins/cry.gif[/img]

bottleg, they lost the kcg last year but look what else they have done, they have engineered on of the most successfull advertsing campaigns in the last 10 years with the x games and supporting extremes athletes and such, that i bet has benefitted tham more that the kcg

Yea and..... [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]


They still have some of the nicer products out there, not to mention some HUGE amps that are, as always, reliable and well built. Excellent subs, great comp sets....how many IASCA Finals did Kicker win with those "mystery" comp sets.

Who cares about the politics?

If Focal stopped with their excellent service and support for thier customers/competitors does that mean I should just loose all respect for thier products regardless of the fact that they build IMO, the best component sets around?

My point is, give it up with the politics. So Kicker can't afford to give away thier products and support thier competitors for free. Big deal. Is that REALLY affecting you?

^ Yeah - the 'prototype' components were always a favourite. ;)


Kicker kicks ass. I prefer the look of the old ZR amps but they're an excellent brand.
