GREETINGS FROM PLANET AUDIO… SPRING MEANS IT’S TIME TO PICK A “PUSH” LINE.
I was talking to a distributor this morning and he said he was happily selling the TORQ line “by accident”. I’m not sure exactly what that means but he sounded happy so in return, so am I. What I think he was saying is the product was now moving extremely well without the major effort previously needed (last year) to break a new line. In turn that means the foundation for the line has been laid and the following results should please all our partners. This distributor has tripled its business (YTD) with us by using the TORQ line of speakers and amps as their “push” line. TORQ is proving itself, time and again, to be a winner! I’ve got a question for you, what other value based line in America backs up its own-bad-self with a 4 year warranty? To save you all some time I’ll answer the question as well… NONE! This distributor further stated profits are high and returns are low and they’ve not looked back since making the TORQ line their push… This proves once again that Planet Audio has “State-of-the-art” product at “State-of-the-marketplace” prices.
The TORQ line is fulfilling its legacy in the Planet lineup; sharp looking, great sounding, durable and profitable. These qualities, along with a 4 year warranty, are something we can all bank on in the future. Now let me make this perfectly clear… I know things are still difficult out there but with the right product mix and your focused salesmanship we can all find a connecting flight to a sustainable profit margin just as RNL Audio Inc of Florida and others have come to find out. This month Planet is proud to recognize RNL as our most improved partner. Thanks for your partnership and hard work!
I will leave you with the seven points on why Planet should be YOUR push line . . . We at Planet are aware that mobile electronics is an expendable income business aimed at an end user who is troubled by a slow economy. The cost of simply living and, in some areas, unemployment has put a “hitch-in-the-giddy-up” of the good old days but during a call around the last 2 to 3 weeks I have made some observations.
1. Good dealers and good distributors tell me that although it’s a little soft, business still is pretty good. “Optimism creates buoyancy…” 2. Planet Audio is a well funded and well run company. 3. The TORQ, APOCALYPSE, and BIG BANG lines are awesome and priced correctly for the times. 4. Planet product has a great record for reliability and value. 5. Planet’s product warranty programs are the strongest in our industry. Four years on our value-base TQ line… who’s better than that? 6. Planet often ships orders within 24 hours. 7. RA’s are handled in a timely and forgiving manner. This 8th point is our statement to the above… 8. While other companies are in a frantic race to zero profit Planet is still enjoying a growth margin (From 2008) as of the end of February.
Remember always… Planet Audios’ got your back!

Big Bang
The Big Bang Theory is a scientific explanation of how the universe originated. According to this theory, the universe was created billions of years ago as a result of a violent eruption. The 2008 Big Bang Series of digital audiophile amplifiers allows you to create an eruption of your own.
These powerful amplifiers utilize digital full range technology, allowing for very efficient and high quality sound reproduction. As a result, PLANET AUDIO was able to design a line of amplifiers that are not only powerful but very compact, creating big sound in an extremely small chassis.
By minimizing the analog influence of the audio signal, PLANET AUDIO maintains near flawless sound reproduction, so you hear everything that you were intended to, and nothing less!
The Big Bang Amplifiers feature HIVIS (High Voltage Input Sensitivity) Control, along with the exclusive OBAC-1 (Onboard Active Crossover) System.
Experience your own eruption!

… More powerful than the legendary Big Bang Subwoofer series, the BB215D is the next generation of PLANET AUDIO’s Super-Subs.

2007 Release
PLANET AUDIO is proud to announce the release of its new BB65PRO 6.5” audiophile component system. This incredible sounding component set features a 6.5” poly-treated paper cone with a santoprene surround and anti- resonant “open design” cast aluminum basket for true high fidelity sound reproduction. The 3-inch anodized aluminum voice coil and flat spider ensure increased power handling and perfect linearity. The 1-inch silk soft dome tweeter maintains clear and smooth upper frequency reproduction and with flush and surface mounting capabilities it offers ease and flexibility in installation.
PLANET AUDIO agree that creating the optimum sound field in a vehicle requires versatile placement. Our new Big Bang 6½” component speaker system is the best choice. The BB625C will perhaps be the best sounding speaker you have heard.
PLANET AUDIO’s engineers started with our patented CRS (Cloth Reinforced Santoprene) Surround then added a light-weight and durable glass-fiber cone for optimum mid-bass reproduction. A silk soft dome tweeter was then added creating a component speaker system that is nothing short of incredible.
To complement our BB625C, our engineers developed the Big Bang Series of speakers. Featuring the same technologies as our BB625C component system, these co-axial speakers are the perfect addition to any sound system. The Big Bang Series of co-axial speakers are actually speaker systems that can be run with either the included passive crossover or they can be bi-amped to optimize response and efficiency.
PLANET AUDIO has out done itself with the new RX Series amplifiers. Packed with tons of features these amplifiers were designed to fulfill all of your car audio desires. The RX Series amplifiers offer more power and flexibility than ever before. Designed from the ground up, component placement on the circuit board was the key to maximizing efficiency and sound quality, while increasing durability under severe thermal conditions.
It doesn’t end there. Our proprietary “ACS” (Angled Connection System) terminals, OBAC-2 (On-Board Active Crossover) Audio Enhancement System and High/Low Level Signal Input capability allow for quick and easy installations. With 13 models (five 2-channel, three 4-channel, one 5-channel and four Class D mono-blocks) to choose from we have an amplifier to fit every application.
If you are looking for jaw dropping bass, then PLANET AUDIO’s Big Bang series of subwoofers are for you. These mammoth woofers feature a vented cast aluminum basket, aluminum voice coil former and bumped and vented backplate for continuous cooling under extreme conditions. Dual flat spiders with woven and insulated tinsel leads, carbon fiber reinforced paper cone and a 7-layer high density “fat rolled” surround keep the bass tried and true. Whether you are trying to impress your friends or the judges at a car audio competition, the Big Bang Series subwoofers have what it takes!
PLANET AUDIO’s new RX single stack woofers will get your bass-a-boomin’. The RX subwoofer features our proprietary stamped basket with perimeter venting to protect against severe thermal conditions and poly injection cones for tremendous strength while being driven with high power. Smooth rolled Butyl rubber surrounds were utilized to ensure accurate movement and durability.
