Product & History:
Invented by VolksTech’s electrical engineer for his personal VW restoration project in the mid eighties, the “SK-1” line of speaker panels was the first real solution to facilitate mounting stereo speakers in the VW Bug. Upon offering the type 1 bug panels to the VW consumer, demands for panels to fit the Super Beetle and Karmann Ghia followed immediately.
Our design was not merely to find room to mount quality speakers. The most important criterion was to develop a speaker mounting system that would provide proper placement and radiation axis for efficient imaging and high frequency propagation. The end result is:
1. Generous room for high quality speakers.
2. Up front sound.
3. Excellent imaging (Your perception of the
sound origination positions.)
4. Exceptionally good high frequency.
propagation (You can hear the wind
instruments.)
5. Sculptured design, harmonious with VW
interior.
6. Rugged construction of premier automotive
plastic alloy (ABS, .125" + thick).
