Miramar, FL—April 27, 2004—JL Audio, manufacturer of aftermarket automotive auto sound systems, has acquired Total Mobile Audio, LLC, a Phoenix, AZ based provider of quality, entry-level mobile audio components.

Total Mobile Audio was founded early in 2004 by industry veteran, Dan McLeod and his wife, Deb McLeod. Prior to founding the new company, Mr. McLeod held the position of VP-Sales & Product Development with the Rockford Corporation. Total Mobile Audio offers a compact line of attractively priced auto sound components including amplifiers, component speakers and subwoofers.

JL Audio President Andy Oxenhorn said, "We are very impressed with Total's business model, products and marketing approach. Dan clearly saw a need for quality entry-level products targeted towards independent specialists within a strict limited distribution model. We are very confident about the potential of this brand and the vision behind it."

McLeod will remain as president of the wholly owned subsidiary and establish office and warehouse operations in JL Audio's Phoenix, Arizona facility.

Dan McLeod said, "I am really passionate about the idea behind Total Mobile Audio and thrilled at the opportunities presented by JL Audio's acquisition of the company. We are going to offer independent specialists "The Total Package" in entry-level products."

i think they are pretty good. i have a friend who has one pushing 2 10" jl w1's and he hit 142 db with a ford explorer. i think they are a good amp for the money
