Should we be concerned that the story with the most clicks last month was actually an April Fool’s joke by KENWOOD? It attracted a record number of clicks for a story in CEoutlook over a two week time period (37,000 clicks!). KENWOOD pretended to announce a radio with a built-in air freshener dispenser. KENWOOD might think about actually producing it?
Once again, we saw a busy month for car audio. The sale of VOXX to automotive mirror maker Gentex was finalized. The new reality of higher tariffs started to settle on the industry with suppliers beginning to raise prices.
