Daytona Beach, Fla. – Rockford Fosgate’s award-winning Hummer H2 demo vehicle is set to storm the beach at the annual Spring Break Nationals show in Daytona Beach, Fla. This American-made powerhouse blasts an ear-numbing 160db and that’s on a bad day! “We proved there was nothing louder and as bad ass than the H2 at the CES show in January and we have the noise violation tickets to prove it!” exclaims Jason Digos, the award-winning Rockford Technical Training Institute (RTTI lead fabricator, who was also the brains behind the incredible 2003 Nissan 350Z Rockford Fosgate demo vehicle. “Rockford Fosgate is all about power and performance, made right here in the United states with pride. The American-born H2 mirrors our philosophy ... the competition should get out of the way if it doesn’t want to get hurt. If you want the patented ‘American Muscle’ put inside your car audio product, than the only choice is Rockford Fosgate.” Just like the H2, Rockford Fosgate’s leading amps, woofers, and speakers are designed and built with pride in the United States of America.
