a few words

president at rockford fosgate

Rockford isn’t just a brand, it’s personal. It’s where I come from.

The logo, the sound, the mission, it’s been with me since I was a teenager blowing every paycheck on gear that made me feel something... that more importantly gave me confidence in myself. I’ve built the cars, ridden the miles, tuned the systems when I had no idea what I was doing. I didn’t just buy the product, I lived it. Still do.

This company shaped me. It gave me purpose. And now, it’s my responsibility to protect it, evolve it, and keep it unmatched. I don’t just believe in Rockford Fosgate. I bleed for it. That Diamond R means something, not just to me, but to the culture, to the movement, to everyone who’s ever turned it up and felt it. It’s more than business. It’s a legacy. And I’m not here to watch it, I’m here to drive it.

Rockford isn't just a brand. it's personal.

Its where I come from.

The logo, the sound, the mission.

What do you want people to know about Rockford Fosgate?

why is culture so important to RF, how do you define the culture we are a part of?

There is no one silver bullet. That’s the honest truth and maybe the hardest thing to say. It’s a complex answer made heavier by the pressure of getting it right. Because we don’t just make products, we create with purpose. Every move, decision, and direction we take is intentional. We aren’t a “me too” brand.

Often shamelessly imitated and copied, we don’t follow trends.

We follow our customers and lead with conviction. Everything we do ties back to one mission: be the best at everything we do. It’s not optional. It’s the standard. Flexibility is a strength.

We don’t wait for perfect conditions, they don’t exist. We assess, adapt, and execute with precision. We thrive in chaos.

And that’s exactly where others break. If you’re looking for the one thing, it’s this: We win. Professionally. Completely. We don’t wish for victory. We engineer it with preparation, unity, and relentless execution.

Culture. It’s the word everyone throws around when they run out of real answers. For us, it’s never been a trend or a buzzword it’s been the backbone of this brand since day one. Culture at Rockford isn’t crafted in a boardroom or posted on a wall. It’s forged through trust, grit, accountability, and execution. It’s team-first, ego-last. And it’s earned. We don’t mimic culture, we build it. And because it’s real, it shows up in every product, partnership, and person tied to our brand. That’s why it resonates. It’s not performative it’s generational. Passed down, like something sacred. Others copy what we’ve done…because they can’t replicate who we are. That’s fine. We’re not here to fit in we’re here to lead. This is Rockford culture: built, not borrowed. And we live it every f$#%ing day!

Can you talk about the importance of our commitment to car audio?

Rockford has been around for forty five years, where are we going next?

I have to laugh, maybe smirk is the better word every time someone questions our commitment to car audio. Let’s set the record straight: Rockford Fosgate is car audio. It’s not a side hustle. It’s our foundation, our core competency, and the beating heart of this brand. The re-introduction of Punch isn’t just a product launch, it’s a signal. A signal that we haven’t strayed. We’ve evolved sure, but everything we do, from motorcycles to marine to powersports, is built from the DNA of 12-volt innovation. The platforms may change, the environments may vary, but it all traces back to our roots in car audio. As we move toward 2026, we’re not slowing down, we’re gearing up.

What’s coming is bold, it’s broad, and it’s built on everything we’ve learned across every category. Car audio isn’t just where we came from. It’s where we’re doubling down.

Exactly where our customers are headed, only louder, bolder, and with more purpose than ever. The truth is, we’re just getting started. The last decade has been a proving ground showing us not just what’s possible, but what’s next. We’ve earned our place in the soundtrack of our customers’ lives from their first system to their latest adventure rig and we’re not letting up. It’s about anticipating the next move and not being afraid to make the investment. Whether it’s on the road, on the water, or off the grid, we’re designing for every experience that deserves to be amplified. And we’re doing it with one mission: to be there, to make it better, and to make it unforgettable. We’re not chasing markets. We’re shaping them. Wherever they go, we go.

Only louder.

What excites you most about the future of our industry?

How do you want our customers to feel after interacting with Rockford Products?

The unknown. The edge. The fact that we’re standing at a point where tech, culture, and expectation are colliding and we’re one of the few equipped to lead through it. What excites me isn’t just what’s next it’s that we’re not waiting for it. We’re molding it. The convergence of lifestyle and performance is accelerating. People want gear that hits harder, works smarter, and speaks to who they are not just what they drive or ride.

That demand for connection, for authenticity, is exactly where we live. There’s no playbook for what’s coming and that’s the best part. It favors the bold. The flexible. The committed. We don’t just have the history. We have the instinct. We’ve done the work. And now it’s time to push further and faster because this industry is primed for disruption, and we intend to be the ones doing it.

We want them to walk away with a smile and not just any smile, but the kind that only comes from being genuinely moved.

Whether it’s getting hyped for a big moment or finding a mental escape through music, our systems are built to deliver that transformative experience. Music has the power to shift time and space, and when it’s delivered through high-performance audio, the impact is undeniable. We design our products to meet customers where they are from low volume to wide-open.

They’re in control; we just give them the gear to make it real.

The difference isn’t just heard, it’s felt. That sonic signature, that emotional pull? It’s intentional. Creating connection through sound is our craft. When the moment calls, we’re there loud, clear, and unapologetic.

HIST

history and heritage represent the foundation upon

TORY which identity is built.

Honoring heritage isn't about staying in the past its

about using it as a compass to navigate the future.

We don't color within the lines. We stretch the canvas of advertising, speak in bold truths, and meet our customers where it matters most, deep in the culture.
